Yeah, I said it and then got to thinking about it and I'm not sure it'd be that difficult. For PC games anyway, consoles (especially Nintendo) would probably require self reporting.
But Discord seems to be aware of what I'm playing (steam integration?) so theoretically a "game scrobbler" could work through that too? I think if such a service was created, it could also be neat to add community-driven achievements and stats tracking.
Ah, maybe a fun side project to dig into sometime...
That actually reminds me of RetroAchievements. Some modern emulators have an integration with it and they track play time and achievements. I am not sure if it works for any game but in theory a standalone scrobbler could be written.
