Gaming Websites to help you Track stats, items or story. What do you wish people knew more about in Gaming Websites?
If you’re a patient gamer or a VERY patient gamer, or simply an old fart this is a must know:
https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Homegamefaqs.com for game guides
howlongtobeat.com for game length estimate
backloggd.com for collection tracking
isthereanydeal.com for game salesMy GameFAQs account is like 22 years old
Nice, mine is 23. Been using it practically my whole life, though I don’t post there anymore.
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.
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
https://areweanticheatyet.com/ - a crowd-sourced database of games using anti-cheats and their compatibility with Linux/Proton.
Gamefaqs is a classic for strategy guides for real oldies, or just if you enjoy quaintly embarrassing writing
I HIGHLY doubt anyone still plays it but for planetside 2 fisu is a stat tracker
