As a professional Steam purchaser I can tell you def not me. Am glad digital games can’t collect physical dust haha.

    I've seen a few virtual environments people have made to display their game libraries. I think it would really put in perspective how bad a lot of our backlogs are...

    Neat idea for small backlogs. But I don’t want to be both physically and emotionally overwhelmed by my backlog.

    It'd be awesome if it depicted the games with accumulated dust on them relative to how long it's been since they were last played (or purchased, if never played).

    This is kickass, what software is that?

    Any idea what program that is? That’s pretty cool to be honest

    Disclaimer: I haven't dug into it yet to see which ones are good or available to the public.

    Looks like the one pictured above was a project called Hall of Games, but they were only up for a few months and then shut down in October.

    I'm seeing lots of personal projects (no doubt people vibe-coding for fun). Here's one on reddit from 3 days ago:

    There's a more polished-looking one on steam called Boxroom, but it seems to have mixed reviews.

    Makes me wonder why Steam VR never made a version of the home environment with this functionality. Would be neat to give people the experience of grabbing a game off the shelf to play.

    Maybe even adding a feature similar to EmuVR where you can play your traditional (non-VR) games on a TV in the environment (if that wouldn't melt people's GPUs to run simultaneously).
