Would help out if we had the option to "not recommend hidden games".
Especially for those who have mature content but have kids running around the house.

It needs both, plus also respect the Mac filter set or not. The whole lab is boring by not respecting the current setup requesting see all or Mac games.

But for sure it's a bug that hidden games are included in lab, the best would be an option to allow it or not.

And OP is right, there should be an option to define exclusions for the list Play Next.

I would like for it to randomly choose a game from the ones I have unstalled.

also not just unplayed games, suggest games with little play time too, I've launched plenty and forgotten to go back to them ><

Nobody seems to read this group. Otherwise, I see no reason why there hasn't been a single update since the release of this function. Absolute ignore.

I know, this is very annoying considering I do want Play Next to be useful.

I think it would be cool if you could also see wishlisted games up there. I think the shelf works fine for me for the games I've already bought, but I would also like to see which games I haven't bought, but that would be way up there if I did.

While I like how Steam Labs recently started suggesting games to me that I had started but not finished yet, I'd love even more if I could specify a library category to exclude from the playnext feature.
This way, games that I don't wish to play ever again for whatever reason would not show up.

Fix that by making a list of games:
High priority > Normal priority > Low priority

High is games I NEED to play right now, because they look cool or I just want to play them

Normal is games I want to play but it's not as important.

Low I leave it for games I want to play but is not super important. Why? Because most are early access, so I let them cook while I play other games so by the time I get to it. Hopefully it will be finished.


I also made a list of HONESTY
Games I bought on impulse and to be honest I will never play them. Quick example are souls like games. It was fun at first but I grew to dislike the genera.

Wish you luck friend.

it'd be fun if it suggested more than the whole Yakuza franchise, Slay the spire and Persona 5 for me. been this way for 6 months now.

There should be an option to check up to 3 tags of games you'd like to play (to narrow down to a few instead of showing all the ones with these tags in your library) instead of assuming based off 2-3 games you played months ago.


edit: I would play them but they're all long games and I've got like 80 games i paid and never launched yet. I'm the kind of person who goes on maximum 5 games at a time (1 at a time, until completed), usually 2... my gf doesn't care much but i wish to care more and treat them as they should so I don't want to feel disconected from the games because i really struggle to be immersed and is a bit hard to impress but i try my best despite my ADHD trying to unfocus.

This might not sound helpful, but make your own list with exel or just a sheet of paper.
After making a list I order them on the steam library collections.

I ordered my games by priority (play now, play later, play super late, play NEVER).

Once the games are on lists, I roll a computer dice and I play the game the number marks.
Wish you the best of lucks, cause the steam labs are useless and never listen to feedback.
