Make us able to delete separate games from one receipt.
For example, Bioshock Triple Pack, which now has remastered versions. Or Left 4 Dead 2 with Left 4 Dead 2 beta.

You cant delete the originals ,. Not because of the bundle but rather because of how the remasters work. The remasters still use the files from the original and they decided that rather than doubling files and downloads, to share.

Some devs do it the other way and some don't.

Well, Skyrim Special Edition is a separate title. (Good guy Bethesda).

But it's not about Bioshock. As I mentioned early, Left 4 Dead 2 has Left 4 Dead 2 beta, Dota 2 has Dota 2 Test. The only way right now is to hide those beta titles. They are in one receipt (when you try to delete them in steam support, steam says that you will delete both of them, the game and the beta titile). And that's what I want, to delete separate titles from one bundle (receipt).

This is because Special edition does not upgrade or replace the original. You will not they have two different store pages, Might have saved their customers a few hours worth nof downloading if they had.

Because they are literally part of the whole package.

Assuming it's true that the Steam Support cannot remove the games for you because they're bound to another game, why do you need to have them removed? Just ignore them. It doesn't harm you having them. In fact, you can idle their cards, sell the cards and the game passively contributes to your booster pack eligibility. You only profit from that. It's like someone gifting something to you, no strings attached, and you refuse it.

I agree with you. Well, it's just my perfectionism :) But I really don't understand why everyone disagree with me? :) I am not complaining that you hide them, and it's okay to you. Why are you complain that I want to remove them? I think it would be grat to have this option.

Those are not bundles. A bundle is seperate licens purchased at the same time. With a bundle, you should still be able to remove specific games with out effecting the compleat bundle (in most cases).

Those are part of the games they are test/beta for. They do not show in your profile's library either.

You can either hide them or set your library to only show installed games. Either will remove them from site.

If you want them removed, you will have to remove thier parent games as well.

The "delete" option was added because people wanted games removed from their profile, not just their local library.

I kind of got this perfectionism later on, but now, thanks to various bundles, I have tons of games on my account that I'll never play anyway. One could say "I want a clean account" but thinking about it twice, for what reason? It does not matter what unplayed games you have sitting in your library. No one cares about you having them. At worst (?) they have an effect on your total amount of games. But I can't say that a higher amount is something negative either.

Anyway, I am not disagreeing with your suggestion. If it bothers you, Valve should show some effort to change it (it's a really, really small thing after all). And don't mind the people disagreeing with you. This will always happen here. It pretty much goes by the mainstream rule "it's either cool or it's out" according to what I see here every time. It's like they feel the duty to pick on harmless suggestion for whatever twisted reason.
Either way, the main issue however is that Valve usually does not care a bit, unless half of the community is throwing a tantrum about it. So you have to be either lucky or you need tons of people to complain about that.

Wyvyrias, thank you for understanding. Well, I hope I am not he only one who have this issue :)
