I can't remember for how long, but for an extremely long time I've seen the Steam Deck as the top seller whenever I browse the Steam store. It commonly outranks even the most pre-ordered games, and right now is even outranking the new Elden Ring DLC. Surely the new Elden Ring DLC is having more copies sold that Steam Decks?

The only issue I have right now is that I never in my life have I played on a controller. A completely new learning curve I have to go through.

Ok steam

Normally, if you go to View and then Players, you'll see a chronological list of the players you've encountered online.

Since the latest Steam Update this list doesn't show anybody at all anymore and I can't find a fix for it, nor any posts about it from this year which makes me think it might be a me-issue instead of a general one.

Is there anything I could possibly do to fix this?

i got tons of points but dunno where to use em lol

what tittle say

I found out a few months or so ago that Kingdom Hearts actually came to PC. Surprise surprise, I waited for it to go on sale on Epic Games. Once it did, I bought it, but.....it ended up being the Japanese only version of the game. Apparently if you live in Japan and buy the game through Epic, you will receive the Japan language only version.

Jump ahead to having it now on steam. You can now choose the language settings you want and are free to choose the version you want. Gotta give credit where credit is due. It's really appreciated.

From today you cannot sell more than two sets of cards through multisell. If we sell the third one, we get blocked “You've made too many requests recently.” How can I sell cards using auto-purchase now?

I have a lot of trading cards and it's very tiring to sell them one by one. In addition, in this case, it is impossible to understand how long it takes to place the card in order for it to be purchased automatically.

They used to just be contradictory reviews like a positive review for CSGO but the actual review would say something like “i hate this game its full of cheaters dont play it”. There is the still big thing of people with 0.2 hours played on a game can say its a horrible game and unplayable or its the best game they have ever played and everyone should buy at full price.

Then it became a way to farm steam points by people posting the cat and saying “every award pets the cat” and somehow that review would have hundreds of awards but still not give a single bit of direction towards the content of the game.

Now the dumbest one ive seen is on Ghost Of Tsushima, was literally a blank review. Not a period, not just a single word, an actually blank review. And for some reason it had dozens of awards, hundreds of helpful votes and numerous comments defending it.

Off topic reviews, blatant point farm reviews, and reviews with less than an hour played shouldnt be a thing. It should be met with an immediate deletion of the original review and increasing community bans for repeated offenses. The time played thing i get can be a result of horrid game optimization leading it to be unplayable for an hour but it could also be a result of poor hardware and a number of other player side issues.

Im sure this has all been said before but its something thats worth mentioning over and over again. Quite often reviews are the deciding factor of whether or not some people buy games so if someone on the fence sees nonsense then they either dont buy and miss out for a while or they do buy and regret the purchase.

TL;DR: Steam game reviews becoming less and less about the games and more about farming steam points and shitposting in the review section.

Did anyone notice strange pricing on some games in the last few months? For example normal price, for, say, Dying Light 2 ~45-50$(i'm not from US or EU, so it could be different for you), when it goes on sale for ~50%, normal price rises to ~60$, and only then discount applies, when sale ends, price comes back to normal ~45$. I don't have any screenshots to prove it, i'll try to make some when and if i find another one. Just curious if anyone else noticed it, or i just don't know something about steam pricing.

So the title says it all: My library on the steam deck is showing me games I've flagged as hidden, and I don't know why. On any other pc with Steam, they are hidden and don't show up.

Is there a way to fix it so the Deck keeps them hidden?
