I wish the collection section was more useful. For example, it would be great to see how many games in our collection we have completed, our completion times, total and average playtime, the average score we gave to the games in our collection, and even the average scores given by the community. I think it would be a great improvement.

I have two Elden Ring playthroughs listed here. It would be great if the playtimes for these games could be combined and displayed as a total duration (e.g., 139 hours 50 minutes). In my opinion, these should be shown as one game. Similarly, when viewing the "All Time" section, rather than seeing the same long game completed five times by a person, these playthroughs should be grouped together under a single entry. Additionally, for a shorter game like Portal 1, even if it is completed 150 times, it would make more sense for it to be displayed as one game at the top. The ranking system in the "Most Played" section is excellent, as it evaluates both Main and Progress categories simultaneously. It would be fantastic if this ranking system could also be applied to the Games section. Finally, the changes in the Stats section are visually very good looking. thank you!

There is still a long way to the end of the year, but how nice it would be if you added the recap feature on Spotify or Steam to this site, what I gave the highest score to during the year, the games we played for the longest time, etc.

According to Playnite 330 games 1079 GB Currently playing 3 games

Why is howlongtobeat not fully integrated with ign playlist?

We have discussed moving Emulated to the Storefront field so you are forced to pick the Platform version of the game. How do you feel about that?

I guess something like (played on) will systematically cause problems as a different category is added to the database, but at least moving it to the storefornt section would be an incredibly positive thing.

but what I really want is of course (played on)

My collections are gone too (I was adding a game and suddenly they all disappeared)

I have been using this site for 4 years and it has only one shortcoming: When adding emulation games, it is not possible to specify which platform the games are available on and which platform we are playing on. If such a feature is added, the site will be great for me.

great idea, great concept

MY WISHES FOR 2024

I wish there was a 'Played with an emulator' checkbox on HLTB,
I wish GTA 6 to come to the pc 3 months after the release or earlier

It may not be related to games, it may be related to anything, leave your wish here and see if this wish comes true in the year 2025. all of our wishes will hopefully come true Happy new year

Beat 2024

Dragons Dogma: Dark Arisen

Super Mario Sunshine
Demon's Souls
Persona 5 Royal

I think 1, 2 and 3 are good ideas. I'm pretty sure some of those were mentioned before too and might be in the admin's to-do list already. I'm sure the collection feature is still gonna see changes and additions since it's so young.

I think 4 might be the most difficult because games aren't actually... "connected" in the database. So, it would need a way to determine games as sequels first and doing that retroactively to every game ever added seems like a massive task to me.

#7 is a bit tricky, in my opinion. Because it's debatable on when/how to use the "emulator" platform tag anyway. I think it's just a legacy option for people that prefer to tag their playthroughs that way but a lot of people don't use it at all. I don't because I choose the platform that the game was originally released on. Because if I emulate a PS1 game, I'm still playing a PS1 game. I never thought "emulator" makes sense as a separate platform choice in that dropdown menu. So, I agree it could need a change.
I personally think the best solution for that would be to remove it from the platform choices completely and instead have a checkbox on the completion/log page to mark a playthrough as "played via emulator".
Though, I have a feeling that has been mentioned before. I can't imagine you're the first one to bring it up.

Anyway, you might wanna drop these suggestions in the Feedback Thread to make sure the admin sees them.

This is an incredibly logical and beautiful idea.

There are three sites where we can archive games, and the best site among them is HLTB. However, HLTB is missing some basic features.

1. It would be great if there were an indicator showing what percentage of a collection we have completed when we look at any collection.

2. It would be great if there were an indicator of how many hours it took to complete any game in that collection when we look at it.

3. It would be great if, when looking at any collection, there was an indicator of how much time we've spent on the games in that collection.

4. The franchise system, for example, when we go to the BG2 page, it would be great to be able to see the prequels and sequels and their release dates, similar to MAL.

5. I also noticed a change in the interface design. I think the current interface looks a bit cumbersome. The tabs in the "Edit Details" section are very well-designed.

6. I would like to have more statistics options, as mentioned in this thread.

https://howlongtobeat.com/forum/thread/2879/1

7. MOST IMPORTANT We want to select which version of the game we are playing on the emulator and on which platform. For example, specifying that we are emulating the PS2 version of the game we are playing on PC.

Don't misunderstand I have no intention of criticizing the site. I just want it to develop further because I use it fondly.

I believe that BG3 should be the Game of the Year because, even though The Legend of Zelda (TLOZ) is an excellent game, it follows a familiar formula and has had many iterations. On the other hand, BG3 has revitalized the C-RPG genre by bringing something fresh and new.

1. BALDUR’S GATE 3
2. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
3. Super Mario Bros. Wonder
4. Resident Evil 4
5. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
6. Alan Wake 2

For instance, I would like to see the average score I've given to the games I've completed based on their release dates. You could add this to the statistics section, and I think it would be great,

Like this, but it will display the average score I've given instead of the number of games

KAGUYA BEST GİRL

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, both because it is on the eighth generation console and because of the chronological starting narration

I wish we could see our own review scores and playtime in the Collections section. It would be great.

When you finish the same game several times, it appears as 2 separate games on the list. Is there a way to combine it?
