Can you improve the "custom showcase" on your profile?

Hello Hello.

I'm one of those customizing their profile with the list of games completed on steam with the date. Sadly, I have discovered that the showcase only shows 8000 characters so I have reached a point where add a line erases the oldest one.

I was wondering if you can spend those points you can earn by buying or doing activities in steam to improve the limit or to get another custom showcase.

Is this viable or should I look for ad different way to show my lists?

How do I sell trading cards quick & fast?

Long story short someone hijacked my Steam account because I made a stupid decision by opening a cracked multiplayer version of MW3 (2011). The person who hijacked my account bought a bunch of Dota 2 trading cards worth IDR 56,000 (around $3.50). That was my last money in my Steam wallet and I need it back...

Is it likely for Valve to launch a new stationary console, or for a third party console running on SteamOS to launch?

Hi, I am a lifelong console gamer, who’s bought every iteration of PlayStation that’s ever launched, but I am gradually starting to be done with Sony’s business practices, in particular in relation to the console market. I am talking about, the refusal to launch fully backwards compatible consoles, in order to make a profit on games that were released decade ago; the push towards only digital and the punishing of people who want to buy physical games by charging them extra for a disc drive with a grossly inflated price; the seemingly deliberate choice to develop controllers that get stick drift within a year, etc. Add to that the fact that I don’t feel confident in my ownership rights for the games that I have bought digitally, and I am starting to consider whether the investment in any future Sony console is worth it.

In large terms I am loving watching Valve is doing and I have played Steam games in the past and thus have a quite extensive library. The Steamdeck itself was a masterful investment on Valve’s behalf and it’s a company for which I have a lot more trust when it comes to their attitude to digital products and the longevity of the game licenses you have. The only drawback for me is the fact that the Steamdeck cannot outperform a PS5, and performance does matter to me. However, I prefer to play the majority of games on a console in front of a TV.

That’s why I am wondering whether there is any likelihood for a third party console running SteamOS to launch. I’ve gathered that Valve expresses the willingness to license SteamOS to any third party willing to make a console for it, but I’ve not yet heard of companies developing any such console. I am willing to go as far as stating that the moment a console launches with performance equal to or beyond that of the PS5, I’ll be selling my PS5 and I don’t think I see myself going back.

So. Does anyone have any further information?

What do you personally think the future of Steam holds?

Let's say 5, 10 maybe 15 years down the road.

What do you think Steam will be like? What advancements do you think will be made?

Bundle Pricing confusion

https://preview.redd.it/1r6vihj93mge1.png?width=653&format=png&auto=webp&s=317e2f5e8f24a3ddc3047f5bb78b2c860330cf43

Does this pricing make sense? I don't get it.

  • $69.75 = Price of individual products normally
  • $68.25 = Price of individual products currently, due to sales (That's ~2.2% less)
  • $17.44 = normal-total, discounted 75%
  • $17.12 = current-total, discounted 75%? Nope. That would be $17.06

My confusions are:

  1. Where'd the extra 6 cents come from? Maybe some kind of sales tax?
  2. Why'd they strikethrough the 75% and change it to 2%? Shouldn't that only happen when the % is larger? lol

Here's the bundle. I don't own any of the games.

Why are some games not on Steam Leaderboard?

I just tried looking up Disco Elysium on Steam Leaderboards and it only shows the soundtrack and artbook, but not the actual game. The game isn't even removed from the store or anything so why wouldn't it be there?

As a game dev, what should I do?

I've been developing a game for 4 years, and since I created my steam page the game has changed a lot (gameplay experience and graphics). I feel that my steam page lost all traction (I believe it's because the algorithm must think the game won't be finished). I'm even uploading new demos but I see that very few people play it. I also participated in some festivals (and I gained a few wishlists) that are very important but you can only participate one time. I've been thinking in creating a new steam page and start from zero so I can gain more traction and also participate again in some festivals. We have around 1200 wishlists and I know I would lose that, but since we've been losing more every month I don't feel I would be losing much. Since the game changed a lot I feel that the game would be a new experience for players, so I don't feel I would be exploiting any guide lines. Does anybody know if this somehow break steam policies? Would you have any other recommendation for this kind of situation?

Can I give my copy to someone else?

So basically, my older brother, who is a nerd and plays only history games and like the fallout series owns Rocket League on Steam. That probably just made a bunch of people leave after reading Steam and Rocket League in the same sentence. But, I was wondering if there was any way possible if he could some how give me the copy of Rocket League, bc i have over 1k+ hours in the game, and he hasent played in over 7+ years ever since he got into middle school. So basically, is there anyway for his copy to become my copy so he doesnt own it, but so that I do??? super long im sorry, just I couldnt find anything close to what I was asking for.

Best download servers for very high speed internet ? ( 2.2gbps)

Hi, i'm having the most first-word problem in existence, steam download servers are way too slow for my internet speed and i'm downloading a 175GB game.

i'm in France and i've tried several european servers but the download speed is very inconsistent and fluctuates between 10-40% of what my internet can do. any tips ?

And yes, i know the difference between megabits and megabytes.

Can no longer reveal hidden achievements on Steam mobile

I used to be able to see or reveal hidden achievements within "global achievements" on the mobile app. This no longer works. I can reveal them on desktop but not mobile. Anyone having the same issue or know a fix?

Steam has a lot of JRPGs, but what game is still missing in 2025?

I wish we would somehow get ports of older jrpgs like Panzer Dragoon Saga.

Steam Selling Items

This was a random thought I had whilst looking through the Steam market, for someone that lives in the USA, their minimum they can sell an item for is 0.03 usd. In canada it is 0,03 CAD which is certainly less. for someone in canada do they see this 0.03 usd listing as 0.04 cad therefor always undercut by canadian 0,03 sellers because it is lower?

Not sure if how i wrote it makes sense but very curious about this topic.

Is there a way to tell what is directory of the game update is patching?

Such as what file directory is being replaced, or which file being replaced during a game update by Steam?

I have a ton of mods, and after update everything broke, and I want to figure out what files I need to re-edit again

I appreciate it

Fix I found for a game that won't reinstall

Not sure if this is common or if anyone encountered this. I couldn't really find a post. If so, bump.

I was playing CS2, queued up for premier, got a game and started map ban phase.

As soon the map loaded, CS2 had an error (apparently Dust2 map was missing) and I needed to verify the integrity of my files. I did this but it got stuck at 0%. I also tried uninstalling/reinstalling and still got stuck at 0%.

The least destructive way to fix it was to delete the entire game folder from the steamapps\common directory, restart my pc. Next I went into steamapps\common to make my own folder and name it "Counter-Strike Global Offensive" and then click Install on Steam.

Such a stupid fix but I thought I'd just put this here for futurebros who have a similar issue.

Also, yes, even with gigabit internet, there is almost no way to do this during the "reconnect" phase in CS2, so you will get an abandonment cooldown.

I tried downloading another game and it downloaded no issue and launched successfully.

Will the upcoming US tariffs against Canada and Mexico raise game prices in those two countries?

As the title asks. Will there be a price increase on games in the Steam Store in Canada and Mexico?

Steam store region

Hello! I need help with something here, Im from LATAM which is has lower store priced. I recently moved to Spain but I don't want to change my store just yet, still I would like to use my cards and pay using now euros.

Now I know I'm not supposed to buy games being here using LATAM store, but that's usually because people tend to use VPN. My store is already in LATAM, I just don't want to change it yet.

Can I still buy things, without changing store and without getting banned?
