Hi guys, I have a small quandary though it's nothing urgent.
I have a games collection I've been accumulating in digital storage, going as far as romsets and several TB worth of abandonware PC titles, besides what I have from the digital storefronts and rips of my physical copies. As you can imagine, the database got large... excessively large.
Now, I bought Premium mainly so I could use the badges as visual guides on the list for games that I got with multiple versions, and ones I already curated to keep, but since the DB got so large, sometimes just assigning a game to a games database ID to get the images and info for the game takes multiple seconds after clicking OK to assign the changes.
This is where the title comes in. I'm starting to consider clearing out the database, and running multiple instances of Launchbox on this PC, one per platform, to keep each individual database lean. Any advices or things I should be aware of when doing so?
Sorry if this sounds strange, I still feel a bit uncomfortable asking for help on this software despite having used it on and off for years and only this month starting to get serious with it's use.
EDIT: Forgot to add, part of the reason I'm using Launchbox is to keep track of the curation process. Games I realize I do not want to archive are deleted, but as you imagine, it's a long lengthy process as I comb through it. The curation itself kinda became a pastime that takes more time than I do gaming nowadays.
