Steam's default library sorting options can sometimes be insufficient for users who want more granular control over their game backlog. One user has created a custom 'to play' shelf to better organize games they intend to play soon.
This custom solution bypasses the standard 'recent games' shelf, which can become cluttered. The 'to play' shelf allows for a curated list of upcoming titles, ensuring that desired games are easily accessible and visible without being buried under less relevant entries. The approach emphasizes a personal system for managing gaming priorities within the Steam client.
