Dear GoG team, is it possible to show a count of games somewhere on the My Games tab?

With the recent exchange rates being so good for Ozzie dollars to US I have to buy everything on my wishlist last night.

So now I have more than can easily be counted and, like all of us, I love useless facts and stats.

Thanks.
It would just be easier for GOG to allow people to see other peoples shelves which I have asked for since... well since ever. Seeing a persons wishlist is also helpful.

Yeah, they could just make user profile pages -- click on the avatar and you can see the shelves or whatever.
Well each row is five games. So it can't be that hard to count them... can it?

You aren't in the least bit curious about what games people have? I have 90 games exactly, that doesn't tell you what games I like. Also I would imagine the sorting of shelves would indicate how a person feels about them.

I've got mine more or less by genre. Although predictably it's not exactly a precise science in there. It doesn't really tell you anything about how I feel about any of those games, to be honest.
yeah, I really wish they would allow to see the shelves of other people, if other people would enable it in their privacy settings

There are plenty of extremely obvious upgrades they could be making to the site. Stuff that's been obvious for a long time. PMs for example.
The only way people can currently give another member their e-mail address is by posting it on a publicly accessible forum... which is nuts.

Ha.. I had mine in detailed view so one per row.

Changing to the bookshelf-look I see I have 38 games.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Hmm.. Delixe has 90! wow.. I got some catching up to do.

As for seeing others shelves.. I second that notion.
35. But I'm a slow player, so I've only got about ten of them played. Played, but not completely finished, since some weren't that much fun for me.
Kurina knows. ;P

Oh, that makes sense now. And don't get too caught up in buying GOGs. You'll be looking at that shelf realising how many you've barely played. Yeah, this is the voice of experience talking.

As long as it defaults to hiding them, I'm fine with that. Although, I'm not sure why one would want to hide them.

Right now I've got 39 games on my shelves, just one shy of 8 complete shelves.

I assume that they're probably working on more basic fixes for some of the bugs people have been complaining about. This would be a great addition though.

See somebody post insightful things on the forum or express a common interest, and look to see what games they've got. Strikes me as a great way to find games.

user pages would be awesome. Those and pm-ing would make the forums here a whole lot better, imo.
