So apparently I'm a huge retro game collector and I love exposing myself to as many different kinds of games as possible, especially weird ones. As you can imagine, over the years I've built up quite the mass of games, but the thing is, the variety is extreme as I'm unbelievably cross platform and generation. A while before I started the account, I decide to use a randomizer for what game I'd play next. This turned out to be much more fun and addicting than I was expecting, it would often pull out games I probably never would've that I end up falling in love with and the surprise of not knowing what's next only makes it even more. Like I said, I was doing this even before How Long to Beat, I made a document with every single game I see myself playing and would put it into one of those online randomizer wheels. Of course I didn't keep any of the shovelware on the list, as that would be awful. I've been doing this for so long now I even have a rule set for it:
1. No double replays. I replay games a LOT, especially love doing challenge runs. I mean, if you enjoyed it, why wouldn't you want to do it again? Anyways, this rule bans two replays in a row. If a game was a replay, the next has to be a new one
2. No chaining games from the same series in a row. This is more because I tend to be a 100% kind of guy, and usually by the time I finish a game I'm bored with it and want to move onto something else anyways. I don't think I could ever possibly chain two Final Fantasies in a row.
3. If the game is a replay but there is a game from the same series I never beat, do the game I never beat instead. Why replay the game if you have another one you didn't do yet?
4. No replaying a game that was just beaten recently. Pretty self explanatory, this one is more of my own judgement depending on how much I liked the game and how long it's been, though a year counts as long enough regardless.
I cannot describe how much I enjoy doing this, I still use it and don't plan on stopping haha. So many games I ended up liking and so many different kinds of games played, it's great. Of course sometimes I do pick games myself like if I get my hands on something I really want or that, this is more of for when I don't know what to play next or have too many different options to pick from which is the case 99% of the time.

Actually, that's a great idea!
99% of the games I play are also retro games. I have separate collections by platform and I usually get lost choosing what to play, which means I never touch most of the games. I'm going to follow your example and create a custom tab for games that require less time and dedication, created from the collections, and while I'm playing more demanding games (chosen according to my will) I'll alternate them with smaller games chosen randomly. That was the push I needed to play more games from the collection.
Thanks, mate!
