    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.

    I don’t care a lot that people know I play Rimworld, Dwarf Fortress and Skyrim.

    … please don’t share the mod lists though.

    This is why I don’t share my steam tag with anyone.

    I hate people being able to analyze my habits.

    Oh no! My wife is going to see that I played Baldur’s Gate 3 and Crusader Kings 3! Two games that end with 3!

      I dunno, I might side-eye my partner a lil bit if it turned out they were really good at CK3’s schemes.

        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.

    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.

      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.

        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.

        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.

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

            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.

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

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

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

      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.

        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. 😒

    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

    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.

      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.

    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.

      “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.

        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 find it fascinating how prude other people are from what is the level of “normal” in my social circle.

    As if I don’t proudly rock that Subverse and Aurelia on my Steam Library! 💗
