    These are two that might be well known, but I don’t really hear people talking about:

    • I use Map Genie quite a bit. It’s just a bunch of interactive maps for a lot of different games, but it’s really helpful when looking for that one item you’re missing, or waypoints in general. It’s mostly geared towards open world games.
    • I also use How Long To Beat if I looking to play a new game but don’t really want to spend over a certain amount of hours playing. (Although I’m a bit of a slow player, so whatever completion times are listed I have to multiply by 2).

    The other reference sites I use like NeoSeeker and Game FAQs are pretty well known and have been around for ages.

        Oh for sure, I meant more anyone here since the planetside community here isn’t the most active even compared to the planetside subreddit.

        I still play the game and have played briefly in 2018 and then played since the summer of 2020 and I’ve in the abusive relationship that is this game since then

    Heard about one called Grouvee recently, it’s a site that can help manage your Steam library and backlog. The person who introduced me to it described it as “Goodreads for video games”. Steam already does a good job of keeping track of people’s libraries, but those who have a large library and backlog may find it useful.

      Good shout, one of my favorite games is from 2004 and getting it to run properly on “modern” hardware and OS-es is not a super obvious process. PC Gaming Wiki made the process a lot less annoying.

    ProtonDB to see how well your Windows game runs on Steam Deck (or on Linux in general) and what (if any) settings or tweaks people recommend
