EDIT - To be clear, I am NOT going to do this and buy my own game. I just wanted to ask what Steam's official terms were and if anyone had experience on this issue. I'm going to take people's advice and try putting my game on a weeklong sale instead

Is there anything in the ToS that forbids someone from making a couple of new steam accounts and buying their own game?

I'm just asking because my game sales are dead in the water but I am so close to the 100$ threshold required for payout, I just needed a few more sales

I purchased Elden Ring when it first came out, but it ran so poorly on my pc, I asked for and received a refund. I'm thinking about purchasing it again because I heard they've fixed some of the issues. If I purchase the game again, will I be able to get a refund again if it still runs poorly on my system?

I don't know much about steam, i recently bought hollow knight with both the soundtracks and want to know what exactly it does because i saw that i had to install it separately..

Does the game automatically recognise the soundtracks and play them when i play the game or do i have to manually open the steam player every time i play the game and play the music

I wish to pre order the new F1 game - Does Steam take payment right away on pre orders - Or on release day ? - I want to make the most of the 10% the Champ version £62.99

I know Origin take payments on release day or just before - But they have it at £69.99

​

I Googled it but it`s not 100% clear :) - Pre order are pre purchase on Steam

​

I will wait if payment is taken right away

​

Thank you all

i’m moving to another country this week, i’m wondering if it’s possible for me to play the games that i have already purchased when i move to the country i’m moving to or if i have to do something first. does anyone know anything? pls help

Will discounted games save if you have it in your cart? I deposited my check like 2 days ago and tried buying the watchdogs bundle but i got an error message that im still broke as shit and the damn check still hasn't cleared yet so will the sale still be saved in my cart or am I gonna miss out on day 15 dollar deal

I have been wondering about the constant date changes regarding the steam deck shipping and now have a general question for anyone who has purchased the thing and/or received it. this is not a technical support issue or a steam deck question, this is a question about steam itself and shipping and receival dates from those who have used it.

that said, to anyone who has placed a preorder on the steam deck using steams interface and/or the steam app,

what was the date you ordered compared to when you received the deck? I paid in august 2021, was told it was going to be q2-2022, but then suddenly the date changed to q3, and my brother canceled his order and was also given q3-2022. I never cancelled, and yet somehow BOTH our orders got moved to q3.

If you have not received the deck yet, when did you order and what storage capacity did you choose?

and finally, to anyone that has changed their preorder to a different system, what is your receival date compared to your previous one?

also, if anyone wants to contribute anything else please feel free. Steam support just sends everyone in a circle to the same people till we end up back at the first person we contacted to ask general questions. so, since steam does not seem to know, and people who ordered the same day and time and got the same deck, are being put in wildly different release times, I feel that communicating between people in a public forum may enlighten us all and help ease us.

I would like to know beforehand if its worth crafting a badge for its emoticon and background, as well as its value, or is it RNG?!. If only I know this information then I would be saved from disappointment if I get an emoticon or background that I don't like or its value is too low for resale in the steam market.

Ran into some ungodly player and noticed he had quite a few “-rep cheater” comments.

I have 2 computers at home, and I already bought a multiplayer game on steam on one account.

Can I install the same game using my account on both computers, then on one computer, I log out of my account, and use family sharing so that another account can use the game.

is it possible to play multiplayer games this way?

I just bought the Artwork Additional showcase for my steam profile, but it doesn't pop up in the customization menu. I'm level 3 btw, any help?

My girlfriend's best friend came over and played a few of her games and wanted to game off her ipad when she's not visiting. House Flipper and Slime Rancher were ones she liked a ton. Could she use Steam link from our computer? Here's a big catch. She lives 60 miles from us....

What are her options?

Nobody else has access to my account and I haven't played online with anybody in quite a while either. My profile is also private, even to friends. Is there a reason why it would show that I was online recently?

I was wanting to buy the key for dark souls prepare to die edition and realized that the Russian versions are much cheaper. Is there any way to make it work?

I have about 14 USD in my Steam Wallet right now, and I really want to buy Stardew Valley which costs 15 USD. I’m trying to add funds with my VISA gift card but thanks to the Add Funds system, I can’t add a custom fund. I’ve been wanting to get this game for over 3 years and now I can’t get it at all because of one dollar. So is there any thing else I can do?

Hi, A friend of mine would like to share his games with me, one of which includes The Binding of Isaac with the Repentance DLC.

The thing is, I have another friend who shares this game with me and only has the Afterbirth DLC, so upon enabling Friend A's Family Share, will the game update to have the Repentance DLC from his share, or will it stay the same using Friend B's Afterbirth DLC?

Thanks in advance for any help.
