I had a call from the city a guy was choking on Steak Fingers. My 
paramedic approached him and he was not breathing when I arrived. It was 
because some girl he was seeing was ghosting him and he had a 14% focus 
on his appetite and 86% distraction.

   Very precise!  But how accurate was that measurement?

I didn't bother to get it last time it was free, so I claimed it to 
increase my number. I doubt I will ever play it!

I think I would rather play Theme Hospital I think it's called. It's 
from the late 90s.

Yes, that is the name. I  agree. I think I would enjoy Bullfrog's old
game more than this one.

 Like Ant, I took this game to increase The Number only.

The Number refers to the total amount of games I have on Steam. The
more the better. Some will argue that it just clutters up your
library. This is entirely true, which is why I went through the
trouble of organizing my games into groups. Problem solved. So.. bring
on the free crap games I say.

But seriously, I am going to retire sooner or later (likely sooner)
and so I am going to have a lot more free time to try out some of
these games.

For Spalls anyway the number refers to the total number of video games,
not just those on steam.
He routinely posts links to free games on epic and GoG as well and has
discussed owning them or not.

Ah but like "wine giveth the desire but taketh away the ability",
retirement may give the free time while simultaneously removing the
desire to play anything.

Yeah, I should have mentioned The Big Three - Steam, GOG and Epic.
Steam just matters the most to me.

I think I used to be on Epic with Dragon Age and a few other games. I 
liked it there but then forgot my password. If you can imagine all I can 
remember is it had to do with red wine.

It's the only one I use.

I have zero interest in Epic, and GoG is almost all old games that I
cannot play anymore due to the combination of old low res graphics and
my tired old eyes, they just look kinda blurry and give me a headache.

Here's an oldie but a goodie - I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream 
(adventure). It's on GoG for under $3.

Okay - so you aren't downloading and installing them all.  Just
something you got going with Spalls and others I guess.

I have about 50 games installed right now. But I have many times that
number sitting in my gaming libraries.

I don't know how to count how many games I have in my Steam Library. I
only have about 45 installed now on my ne PC.  I shouldn't have only
installed dozen or so but got carried away : - ) I doubt I will get to
most of them.  Here I go again! lol
