We get it, you got one.
Can't wait for the Steam Machine and Frame posts coming to a Steam sub near you.

Hi everyone, I finally finished my backlog thanks to my unemployement, sorting games, and discarding games that didn't click with me, and now that that huge list is gone, I'm having trouble on finding out what to do now, don't like replaying games, and i'm not buying new ones for economic and time reasons, i've been playing fighting games from time to time, exploring other hobbies, but I still have the urge to play SOMETHING, but I just don't know what.

I'm currently waiting for the next big game, but i'm the meantime, I want to play someting, I just don't know what, has anyone been on the same place that I am? What did you do when you finished your backlog?

TL;DR: I finished my backlog and I don't know what to do now

Hello everyone, this is my first post here.

So I have using steam for 6 years and during the first 2 years, did nothing like adult games, etc. as I didn't even know steam had those. Itch was my go to.

But in the last 4 years (of college), the games I purchased and played (with even 100% completition) include adult ones like Xvirus, COLLEGE $EX FEST 2024, etc.. The problem is now I am at home and my visiting junior brothers or sisters might play games with me, and I definitely don't want them to see this in my library by any means.

I have already marked all NFSW games as private but whenever I click Library > Home, they are still visible in "What's New", "My Games" or "Play Next". I am searching for a method that can maybe open steam launcher in a "under 12" mode temporarily till they are visiting so I don't have to stress over any "heart attacks", cause my whole connected family of 14 members of 4 generations will be present there.

IT WOULD BE THE DEATH OF MY SOCIAL LIFE WITH MY FAMILY, so any and every help is appreciated.

I'm 23 years old so I should have full control over my media, sadly I'm not applicable for a credit card since I don't make Enough so my bank doesn't see a need to give me one

I kinda just switched to pc about 3 months ago and want to buy some games I had on my Xbox again on steam but I don’t want to play full price again. Is there a way to see if a games gonna go on sale soon or if it will

The games I want to buy are SF6 and grandblue Fantasy to see how it is. Thx in advance

Hi! My (now ex) bf bought me schedule 1 a couple months ago, and now I want to gift ANOTHER COPY to my best friend. The "add to cart" button is not there. What do I do?

Hello all,

I am waiting for Lenovo to release their Lenovo Legion Go with SteamOS in June.

But I have started already buying some games from the Steam platform to take advantage of the promotions.

I also see games at very low prices on a place called Fanatical. But I know nothing about them nor how reliable they are, and if they are legit?

If anyone would be kind enough to give me their opinion I would be very grateful!

TIA

EDIT: thank you all so much! you have been very helpful and very kind with a newbie! all my best to you all! ❤️

I dont know who or what this even is

I asked my dad if I could get a steam deck if I sold my switch but I couldn’t think of selling all my progress so I just want to know if it is worth buying. As someone who has over 300 hours in Zelda tears of the kingdom I would not want to lose all my progress. Can you tell me if it is worth it

Has anyone else been getting a huge amount of suspicious Steam friend requests lately?

I’ve been receiving requests from profiles that copy the nickname and profile picture of people already on my friends list. My friends told me they are having similar requests. It started approx. 10 minutes ago.
