No.

On Steam alone I played 136 different games last year.

So no, I can't be bothered with that!

Is there a way to see how many games you've played in a calendar year on Steam? Tried looking at "recently played" in my library but it doesn't want to give me anything beyond the last couple of weeks

Yeah, it's on the Steam Year In Review that they started last year.

Ah okay, does that just give you a number or does it list the games?

Just wanting to find a good way to confirm all of the things I actually played last year!

It shows everything. Goes into a huge amount of detail from whether you played them on Deck or PC, with controller or keyboard, how many individual sessions, etc. It's really cool.

Sorting by Last Played should split it out further than that though, into recent (the last four weeks I think), then individual months going back a year, then individual years.

Cool, I'll check things out more. Will be good to have a complete list of what I played (I can imagine it's a gooseberry fool load of old stuff and very little new! )

Venba 4

Chants of Sennaar 7
Storyteller(!) 7 *
Record of Lodoss War: Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth 7
Super Mario Bros. Wonder 8
Super Mario RPG 7

Games I played in 2023 and am still playing, based on when I started them:
Tunic 7
Persona 5 Royal 6
Everhood (Steam Deck!) 6
Anonymous;Code 6
Thirsty Suitors 5
WarioWare: Move It! 8

And now, games I didn't finish! (~ means barely started do not trust my views.) In approximate order of giving up on them. CAUTION - CONTROVERSY WITHIN:


* When I first played and finished Storyteller in the first half of the year my playtime barely topped a couple of hours. Matched to the price that was pretty miserable. About halfway through the year it got a massive free update, and now it's a game I'd happily recommend.
** I 'finished' Sea of Stars, but it was only the base ending, and that base ending was so unsatisfying that I felt it had to go here. You're obviously meant to go for the true ending, but like buggery am I collecting 60 shells from all over both maps to do that.

This is far from every single game I've played last year but I feel like I've not dabbled enough in some of them to give a concrete rating. I played through the home-console F-Zero games, enjoying SNES, X and GX a lot. I would probably give GX a 9 as it's really good but I need to play it more. I started Baldur's Gate 3 but I've barely gotten through it - and it's not really to do with me not liking the game as I just get distracted easily and want to give it my full attention.
