As of today, the Steam summer sale is on. However a few days ago some benevolent redditor (likely a paid employee of a competing storefront) recently told everyone on r/pcgaming how to view your total spend on Steam. I was slightly stunned by my total, about £500 since 2015, and have vowed to cut back. This was particularly galling because I have prided myself on being "patient" and not buying games until they were going cheap in "GOTY" or "Definitive" editions.
Then I went through my Steam and GOG libraries and found all the games I've bought but never even installed. There are a few CRPGs I probably first heard about lurking here: Arcanum, Fallout 2 and of course the venerable codex classic Deus Ex 2: Invisible War. There are also things I really should have found time to try like Portal 2 and Bioshock 2 and Infinite. The full list is somewhat concerning and perhaps somewhat incriminating: at some point it seems I even purchased Tomb Raider 2013 (surely due to clerical error).
What have you bought and never installed?
