Game series not in the correct order in library

[Laptop]

Valve did an update with the Steam library sometime back that basically tidied everything up so that games were done in the order that the series runs (which makes it more tidy and logical). Some lists still need to be corrected however.

I don't have every game on Steam, so there will be game lists that are missing from here.

If you know of a game series that is on Steam but is not in the correct order, please post it. This thread will be sent to Valve soon for review.

REMEMBER: The new intended list must make sense for the game series order. For example: If Max Payne 3 was released before Max Payne 2, 3 would still be listed last, regardless of the date it was released as that is the intended order of the games (this is just an example).

The CORRECT lists for incorrect game series orders is below:

Assassin's Creed
Assassin's Creed II
Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood
Assassin's Creed: Revelations
Assassin's Creed III
Assassin's Creed III Remastered
Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag
Assassin's Creed: Rouge

This is very old but the suggestion is still valid. I'll update the OP soon but other people will have to help as there are many more game series on Steam now compared to 2015.

Thanks for making it.

Since I last commented in this thread, I've found that GOG Galaxy's latest implementation (i.e. since the "GOG Galaxy 2.0" beta came out) offers this by default. Specifically, it offers two different name fields:
* the display name
* the sorting name, which can be different, and by default often is, for games whose titles start with "The" or "A".

And the best part of this arrangement is the fact that BOTH FIELDS ARE EDITABLE. This means that you can do the following:
* "FINAL FANTASY VIII" - display as "Final Fantasy VIII", sort as "Final Fantasy 08"
* "FINAL FANTASY IX" - display as "Final Fantasy IX", sort as "Final Fantasy 09"
* "FINAL FANTASY® XIII" - display as "Final Fantasy XIII", sort as "Final Fantasy 13 part 1"
* "LIGHTNING RETURNS™: FINAL FANTASY® XIII" - display as "Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII", sort as "Final Fantasy 13 part 3"
* "FINAL FANTASY XIV Online" - display as "Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn", sort as "Final Fantasy 14"

(And before you say "but GOG doesn't have those games in its store", note that Galaxy can serve as a universal launcher, and you can import your Steam library or add games on an individual basis, so this is indeed possible there, if you own the games listed, like how you can add non-Steam games on Steam. The one advantage Steam has in this regard, besides being the native DRM/launcher for Steam games, is that Steam allows adding any non-Steam application directly, while in Galaxy routes you through a third-party database of games in order to find what you want to add, meaning some obscure indies are missing.)

Given that this proof of concept has already been implemented by a direct competitor, Steam ought to implement this too. And -- likewise -- it ought to make BOTH display name and sorting name editable.

We're talking about two separate programs there but that explained my post a lot better than I did.

If a program like Steamedit works than it is certainly possible, it just needs some way to be implemented into the client. Knowing Valve thought it'll probably take them another 5 years to implement.

kinda late to this thread, but The Jackbox Party Pack 10 just released and it's placed in between the first one and the 2nd one because of the "1" in "10. It's listed 1, 10, 2-9, when obviously should be be 1-10.
