My worst offender would be the Neptunia games I've played (which I genuinely liked for gameplay lol) but honestly, if your gaming family can't accept you at your Nep, they don't deserve you at your NepNep.

They're just jealous cause I always have Atlyss launched and they can't play my copy.

You guys don't share your Steam Relay publicly and put it in a showcase on your profile?

/s... but I totally do that. I'm not ashamed of my gameplay.

EDIT: I just read the article and saw the mention of the "Dwarf" category. It's maxed out on my spider graph, and I've only played 2 games with dwarves this year, out of 180 individual games I've played.

"Dwarf" getting added as a category was a publicity stunt write in campaign by Deep Rock Galactic players, if I recall correctly.

There's not a ton of games with the tag, but both DRG and Dwarf Fortress tend to get a lot of play hours by their players, I think.

While I don't get why Valve did this, if your Steam Replay is starting arguments it's time to kick the arguing party from the family share lmao

I find it fascinating how prude other people are from what is the level of "normal" in my social circle.

As if I don't proudly rock that Subverse and Aurelia on my Steam Library! 💗

Valve has always been pretty awful at granular privacy. For the longest time, no settings between "hide literally everything" and "broadcast to everyone I know every time I purchase or play anything."

Still no setting between those two options, but at least it's on a game-by-game basis now.

Also in several games my ability to join friends in-game broke if I turned my profile completely private. As soon as I set it to friends only I could join them again.

Also the fact that on the steam deck there is no choice to add a pin before purchases is mind boggling to me. Hand it to a kid and they could run up serious bills.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 1 month ago

At least that one has a simple solution: delete your saved card.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I think that's store driven. I recall having to input my PIN on my Deck multiple times, but there was at least a few days between each purchase.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I would prefer if it behaved like phone app stores. Have an option to ask for a pin right before completing a purchase.

Do you not need to put your CCV in on most purchases? I'd say it's more often than not that it asks

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

I just put in a purchase and no, it did not ask me to re-enter the CCV.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Not every purchase, same if you use the PayPal option. At least not in my state in USA.

Sweet Story Wet-Bottom Pie 18+ Adult Only Content

OK, that has almost enough syllables for me to be interested

Is it just me or does this not exist on Steam anymore? This SteamDB page just redirects me to the Steam homepage when I click on the game's store page.

Yes, I was curious enough to click for more information. 😒
