Library UI Recent Games Play button on hover
To explain the title better, The first game in the Recent Games list has a "play" button permanently displayed, but the other smaller ones to the right hide the button under a right click menu or a left click to go to the library page for the game

It would be nice if when you hovered the cursor over the smaller ones it brought up a similar play button that is instantly available, a small thing, removes a click and movement, but speeds up starting recent games and might encourage them to be played.

Edit:
You can see exactly the effect I'm suggesting like this, it's sort of in the UI already:

If you have a game in Recently Played (one of the smaller tiles, not the most recent) but not installed, and hover over it, it fades in an install button right there!

Just do that, but with a play button!

+1

if it will be on hover by mouse once you are mouse on them, i am for it to give you +1 on this request, but it need to be done in similare way like the 1st one on the left, that means in the lower half of the picture to give users option still to just show detailed window of these games for wieving actualities, cummunity pictures and videos and other stuff. Or even better create after houvering mouse on these img acon of games two button the standart green one with triangular play image we are used to and a blue one with "i" in white cycle (for example) for detailed view like it is for now once you simply left click on them and this way the the option of right click could be fully deleted since the right click options are still even now there once users view themselfs the detailed window of the game there are still the little grey-out icons on bottom-right corner of the game image on top centre users window.

Yeah that's what I mean, I think we are thinking the same at least.

Have the library as it is normally where the most recent game always has play the button visible, and when you mouse over the smaller ones to the right it appears/fades in quickly.

i just also thinked how to realizated in visual way, thats kinda deformation of my work in real life XD

Something Interesting I have just seen for the first time is that they sort of already have the effect working

Just do that, but with a play button! :steamhappy:

yeah i know that but the small play button on the instaled ones would be nice too, but for that we also could say thats it a detail but on other hand the details are the things what makes everything better or worse, depends on what is it XD
