I’ve noticed games that i have not played for months begin to appear further up my continue list despite not being played for months, they are being listed in front of games that i have at least played a week ago.
My question is what is going on? Is this some bias algorithm or a bug, Continue is suppose to reflect the games you have previously played in order.
The system seems flawed into taking in factors that the algorithm takes, boosting games up the list so you are more likely to replay them.
I have decided to mark this now as a bug as its constantly changing as it likes.
It’s not life changing, game breaking, it’s simply just annoying, stop throwing games higher up on the list, if i haven’t played them again for a while I do not want to play them again??
Not only this but everytime you refresh it shuffles it again, this also may make it confusing for the security checks you may get when login into a new device, “Select your last 3 games played recently” Yet its displaying old games not played for months…
Expected behavior
The continue page should reflect the games you have played in order rather than scattering them around, pushing frequently played games down and bringing the old ones back up.
Hoping this gets resolved, it’s fairly annoying.
Please allow yourself to go through the Ref at the top of the post, as all the images are there.
Hi @EmberSquared, the Continue sort is partially chronological - games you’ve played recently show in chronological order, and games that you haven’t played recently can be reordered (behind recently played games). This is expected behaviour.
For an easily-accessible, fully-chronological listing, you can click on the Search bar on Website or app to open the Search Landing Page, which has the Recently Visited sort.
I guess that explains the shuffling, but I don’t think I’ve seen barely played and buried games get pushed back into the section until now, is that recent behavior that was introduced with the expansion of the continue section?
