Removing Games
So, i use to do this " farming " thing, and now i got more than 1600 games that i don't want.
I'm wondering what happens if i contact steam support for permanent removal?
Will i lose my XP that i got per game? Can i even remove that much games?
Is there an easier way?

ps: No, i don't want any money back. just game removal. it appears like that paid games can't be removed unless you contact steam support.

Go here and select the game https://help.steampowered.com/en/wizard/HelpWithGame

Then select you want to permanently delete the game


Keep in mind permanently delete is nothing more than an advanced hide.

All the stats will remain, including XP and Achievements

EDIT: Just be simpler and faster to right click games in the Library and select hide this game

Steam Support will direct you to the support pages to do it yourself. So go to the support pages, look up a game and choose the permanently remove option. You'll have to do it one by one, though.

Keep in mind that it's just an advanced hide. The license will remain on the account. You can restore a game via the same support pages by looking up the game and choosing "it's not in my library".

so they won't be removed from my profile? as if someone opens my game details?

They will if you "permanently" remove the game. The achievements and playtime will become hidden as well.

"Permanently" removing a game is simply an advanced hide.
