Subcategory within the "Hidden" category (Library)

[Yew Nough]

Instead of having a giant pile of hidden games, it would be nice if you could organize them into subcategories.

More specifically, I would like to hide games I don't like and have a separate list for completed games, and I would not like to see either of them in my main library.

Ultimately, it doesn't matter if it ends up being a subcategory feature within the hidden category, or a 2nd hidden category all together.

I've proposed before that Valve adds something in the library comparable with the flags in Outlook. A couple of them, colored, that you can rename and that can be filtered on *and* out. That way you could create a "completed" flag, attach it to a game and filter the library so they don't show up (akin the Ready to play filter that hides the uninstalled games).

I think GOG Galaxy has something like this. Would make a useful model to build advanced hide/show features off of.

Edit: I actually tried it just now on GOG Galaxy. It doesn't work like I expected. What I thought it had was various statuses like "completed", which I remember seeing in my GOG library display on the GOG *store*, but that's not the actual feature in Galaxy. Galaxy, on the other hand, just lets you add *anything* as a tag. I just now added "asdf", "fdsa", and "test tagg 1" [sic] as tags to a game, then removed them.

So it's actually more flexible than I expected. (Which is good.)

Agreed, would be a nice option.
