Video game platform Steam is reportedly getting a new feature that will allow players to take “game notes.” The Steam game notes feature would be available both on the Steam Library as well as via a web browser.

The upcoming feature was revealed by Paval Djundik, creator of the popular Steam database website SteamDB and known dataminer of the platform.

While Djundik didn’t mention anything other than it being a “game notes” system, it’s likely a feature that will let players write down information regarding the games they play. This could be useful for games that require to-do lists (such as automation or survival games) or if you want to write down plot points in more story-driven games. 

The game notes system wasn’t the only feature that Djundik found, however. The dataminer also revealed that a notifications page for Steam is in the works. This page would function similarly to the notifications page on the Steam mobile app and will be part of the regular PC client once Valve replaces older VGUI parts, such as its server browser and settings.

While Steam has been the go-to game platform for many years, it hasn’t aged perfectly, with outdated designs and cluttered UI making it difficult for newcomers to navigate through their library or the store. These changes are hopefully a sign of Valve’s effort to make a more modern game client.
