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. 😒

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.

einlander@lemmy.world on 19 Dec 21:51 next collapse

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.

9point6@lemmy.world on 19 Dec 22:37 next collapse

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

einlander@lemmy.world on 19 Dec 22:51 next collapse

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

Regrettable_incident@lemmy.world on 21 Dec 05:59 collapse

Not every purchase in the UK either.

inclementimmigrant@lemmy.world on 19 Dec 22:52 next collapse

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

zipzoopaboop@lemmynsfw.com on 20 Dec 04:55 collapse

Seems pretty random when it asks or not

Dettweiler42@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 19 Dec 22:53 next collapse

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.

einlander@lemmy.world on 19 Dec 22:56 collapse

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

Fiivemacs@lemmy.ca on 20 Dec 01:07 collapse

It took me too long to realize you folks didn’t mean pin as in pin the game to a dash board of something but a personal identification number for pin.

wizardbeard@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 19 Dec 22:56 next collapse

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

moody@lemmings.world on 20 Dec 02:17 collapse

As a matter of principle, I don’t save my credit card number anywhere. It’s a little more tedious when I make a purchase, but I’ve got my number memorized anyway, so it’s not a big deal, and it’s definitely more secure in that respect.

axby@lemmy.ca on 20 Dec 16:22 next collapse

I leave my credit card stored with some places, but I specifically don’t leave it on steam just to add a speed bump for me to avoid buying a game unless I really want it. I tend to add games to my wish list, then sort of impulse buy if they go on sale for really cheap, or remove them later if I’ve decided I’ll never get around to playing them.

I’m not too worried about security, worst case I can get a new credit card number. But it seems like steam and other online retailers are pretty good about not leaking your credit card number.

acosmichippo@lemmy.world on 21 Dec 19:06 collapse

the number of times i add a game to my isthereanydeal list and have no idea wtf it is when i get a sale notification.

srock@sh.itjust.works on 21 Dec 08:24 collapse

The process being tedious helps you think before purchasing too, so it’s definitely a good thing in more ways than one.

greenskye@lemm.ee on 19 Dec 21:58 collapse

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.

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

cobysev@lemmy.world on 19 Dec 22:38 next collapse

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.

MajorHavoc@programming.dev on 20 Dec 00:24 next collapse

“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.

cobysev@lemmy.world on 20 Dec 00:30 collapse

I used to be big on Deep Rock’s Galactic, but I’ve hardly played it at all this year. The other dwarf game I played was The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria.

I played it (almost done) with a friend, had it wishlisted since the IronPineapple video. But on god, finding normal players to do content as a group is nigh impossible, this thing is full of gooners and chat is full of uwu RP, I just left at some point and did the bosses solo.

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.

Unfortunately there’s not really anything I’m really good at in CK3, despite like 300 hours of gameplay. Perhaps open warfare, but that has other consequences that I’m not great at dealing with.

AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee on 20 Dec 10:52 next collapse

I don’t have any games that would be too uncomfortable to talk about in my library, so this wouldn’t be an issue for me. Sure I might not want to talk in public about the furry dating sim Amorous, but pretty much anything else I’ve played would definitely be fair game. Especially Ardor and talking about collecting teeth to confuse people walking by.

Katana314@lemmy.world on 20 Dec 14:07 next collapse

I’m curious whether that new feature, Hidden games, appears in this summary. I think it had some early missteps because it would disappear from some views but appear in others.

I checked mine, and it doesn’t include hidden games on mobile at least

“make sure your pops doesn’t see you spent 400 hours in futa games.” (I don’t know what that means and I’m not gonna Google it while I’m logged in at work.)

Why would you not look it up from this context, it seems to be a generic “don’t let them see” , why would you be so terrified unless you already knew what it was?

My mans denial game is a bit too forthright

r4venw@sh.itjust.works on 20 Dec 23:12 collapse

For some reason, your comment made me think of a video game idea… Futa ball! Football where all the players are… yea!

If someone actually makes this game, no need to credit me. Game idea is yours to keep my friends

Skullgrid@lemmy.world on 21 Dec 00:12 next collapse

Not sure what my comment has to do with football, but sure…?

I mean, if any of my comments would have inspired Futa Ball, I would have expected it to be this one :

Brazillians : 👀 o fute bal detectãoinho!

EDIT : I got inspired from the way Gremio spell out football :

I bet the huddle sections would … have more code and or animations than most football games.

Ohno, my twin will see what games I play. Although they already get the friends popup saying what I’m playing when I start playing it.

They also wander into the computer room frequently to ramble at me so see what I’m playing them.

In short, we all play Dwarf Fortress and it’s not a secret.

Dwarf Fortress is my favorite abstinence method. I abstain from leaving the house on the weekends.

Thankfully all those hours I put into Anomalous Coffee Machine will probably confuse people since the title doesn’t really give away what it is.

It’s porn in case that wasn’t obvious.

Ziglin@lemmy.world on 21 Dec 07:06 collapse

It wasn’t. I thought it would be a sort of horror game based on the title. I’m slightly curious about how a game about/named after a coffee machine turns into that but I’m okay not knowing.

Speak for yourself I’m intrigued

It’s actually both horror and porn.

You can download a demo version on itch.io it’s actually fun and you don’t necessarily have to play the parts with boobies.

Baldurs gate 3 doesn’t need mods. There’s also no one stopping you when walking into a sex toy shop in cyberpunk after configuring your breasts and penis size (because you can have both), without mods. And boy do they have some nice toys.
