Steam may get a system to let players take 'game notes'

,"which will be available in the Steam library, and on the web." While"game notes" is vague enough to mean plenty of different things, the consensus expectation is a way of attaching private notes to games to keep track of things while you're playing, without having to alt-tab away or write them down on paper.

Back in the day, game manuals would often have a blank page or two for notes at the back. An equivalent that could be brought up in the Steam overlay, ideally hosting screenshots and links as well as text notes, sure would be helpful for all those games where you have to remember codes or strings of numbers. So many of my screenshots are random walls with things that might be puzzle clues on them, or dialogue scenes where an NPC gives directions.

I did write down a lot of theories and potentially cromulent words when I played Her Story, and used to draw dungeon maps on scrap paper when playing old RPGs that didn't have automapping, but I'd much rather have a version of that on the cloud. And one I don't have to alt-tab into another program to look at. A place to store frequently used

Steam Deck has a Plugin for the Plugin Loader for this and its amazing. Once again Valve harvesting the Community Ideas. Gotta love them.

I wanted to say 'but why when PC already has all those tools pre-installed' but then I remembered that the average Steam user is allergic to using anything that isn't Steam

A feature missing from all devices Steam runs on...

Does it matter?

You know what's MEGA underrated. Pokemon having a 'last time on...' In FireRed and Leaf green that showed the last 3 notable things you did. Why is this not used more?

Seems unnecessary but I'm on board.

😳😨

Omg that would be a game changer…and a “ Welcome back after three months of adulting, here’s how you play this game.” Feature.

Like Notepad.exe ?

Sounds like a great idea! I often tend to forget what I was doing

Cool

3DS did it first

Steam defeats epic

I do this in KerbalSpaceP all the time. It's not like riding a bike. You forget everything after only a few weeks away:)

does this mean the days of opening notepad in-game are gone?
