    I appreciate this. That said, I was playing a game on my Steamdeck last night when this popped up over the game, while the game was running. Subsequently I died in the game. Kinda shit.

      Is that what that was? I got a grey box with no text in it that popped up over Satisfactory and my mouse control went from the POV to moving a cursor. I was building and it was a brief interruption. I got the actual text via email.

      I got mine smack in the middle of a boss fight in Remnant 2 lol, but my build is stupidly tanky enough that I was able alt-tab close it fast enough to not even die. Felt a little proud of that.

      That is shit, but also just a little funny.

      Then again I love Dark Souls so this may just be the ptsd talking.

          Most MMOs have a steam launcher, they tend to work better than the native launcher from my experience with them

            I don’t believe WoW is on Steam. It’s likely that Steam was just open in the background and popped up over WoW.

              Ahh, I didn’t bother to check, I just know that I have MWO, STO, SWTOR, and could play EvE through steam. I figured blizzard would eventually jump on the bandwagon.

                They might now they’re owned by Microsoft. They’ve been adding games to Steam (perhaps only Overwatch 2 and Diablo 4? so far?).

      Same here, playing Sins of a Solar Empire 2 with a buddy. We both got the popup.

        Stellaris for me, at least in those games it’s not instant death, lol.

        I did however close the pop-up to go see what it was saying before agreeing to it.

      Yeah, I’m all for the move, but don’t be dicks about interrupting.

      Still, right choice otherwise.

      It popped up on my secondary monitor and I wasn’t using it, so I didn’t see it all day
