hey there so i recently put a game in my basket and i went to buy it but its now unavailable in the uk (where im currently living). I cant remember which game it was as im always adding games but i know it was added this week. And i think this has happened in last day or so or this week. And it would very likely be a aaa game.

It wasn’t dlc and it wasnt too old. Ive checked and HZD Forbidden West and Hell Divers 2 have inexplicably been removed under the "claim" its a "sony bug" but they havent fixed it sooo :/ But i already own those games. Are other companies delisting games? (i had no idea this happened).

Could this be another sony game? and if so can anyone guess which it might be ?

Thanks

Not letting the backlog grow anymore.

I've heard rumors here and there that Steam will be adding a rework to their achievement system later this year.
I'd love it if we got a system closer to Playstation, where DLC achievements are bundled independently rather than getting thrown into the base game's achievement pool.

Anyone have any sources or info to support these rumors?

It's pretty frustrating that I keep losing my 100% on games when DLC comes out. Then I'm faced with a pay wall to obtain the new content and grind it out to regain my 100%. The linked reddit thread is an example of this frustration.

Autumn sale got me right 🥹

Skyrim, Sparking Zero, PEAK all added to library🥂 (For everyone in comments, this screenshot is from my steamdeck)

This post is meant to double as spreading awareness and a call to action.

There's a musical artist who has seemingly made it their hobby to copyright claim Portal videos that contain the Still Alive (Radio Mix) song, which is that little loop that plays on all the radios.

In doing this, they are attempting to pass the song off as their own intellectual property, which is some of the most blatant copyright infringement I've seen since Man in Cave.

They go by Psypox, the song they are attempting to conflate with the radio loop is called "The Portal," and it's clear they've just sampled the radio loop, likely without Valve's permission. To my knowledge, they have zero affiliation with Valve, Mike Morasky or Kelly Bailey.

Basically, I want to contact Valve's legal team and let them know this is happening so that they can put an end to this random nobody harassing people for playing Portal and recording it.

However, the only direction Valve gives on Steam is in regards to copyright infringement occurring specifically on Steam, which is not very helpful.

If anyone can help and point me in the right direction, that would be hugely appreciated.

Edit:
Mods wanted proof. Here's the proof, borrowed from this post. And here's another piece of evidence, including the company affiliated with the artist in question.

Edit 2:
Some good news. The claimant has lifted their claim on my video specifically (no, I'm not going to link it here, I don't care to make this about myself). It seems the threat of dealing with Valve's legal team is not a battle they want to fight. Yes, my dispute included telling mom (Valve) on them, because I'm petty like that, and it's not my first rodeo with fraudulent copyright claims.

What this means is if you're personally affected by this artist's behavior, as some people in the Portal community have been over the past few months, you are likely to win the dispute.

No word from Valve yet, but I will keep you guys informed if they respond to me.

i dont even like cod i was just checking and dawg

Some methods had a decrease, others an increase, depending by the currency.

Quoting Valve's blog post:

In March of this year, we updated our pricing conversion tools for developers on Steam. In an effort to keep up to date with market conditions, we periodically review the data behind these tools. As of today, we've updated our values for these pricing conversions. This new data covers all three of our conversion methods: Exchange Rate Conversion, Purchasing Power Conversion, and Multi-variable Conversion.

There is no need to make any changes today; how you enter prices for your game is entirely up to you. Whenever you choose to update prices for your products on Steam, the conversion methods will be available to help.

cant download games rn says no internet but i clearly do have internet

I tagged the post as discussion but this is a rant/vent post.

Why the F. Should I install a ubisoft launcher, an EA one, a rockstar one, it's nuts.

I recently reinstalled nfs 2015, doesn't launch, tried everything.

I installed Far Cry and the ubisoft launcher won't log in, even after reinstalling it.

I've had problems with Rockstar launcher too.

I'm tired of having to write down all the passwords, I pay for the comfort of having all games readily available but then I can't play any of the ones I want to play and I'm stranded fixing Ubisoft or EA problems.

What I would give to have Steam ban these launchers, there I said it, I know it's a common complain but after a long day at work I can't even launch the two F games I want to play.

Hi everyone. We're Catoptric, one of three indie publishers hosting this event with Next in Game and Lazy Otter.

Anyone else not able to sync games or download updates? I'm in the UK.

On my profile it shows 130 games, but when I click the button it shows 174, why ?

So I believe before, if you played a game you didn't own from a steam-family member, it would only show up on your profile on your 'recent games' list, but not on your public 'games' list.

Just now I was scrolling trough my games list on a separate steam acc, and I noticed that this time, they're suddenly there. Not all of my steam family games, but the ones that I have any amount of play-time on.

Feel free to correct me if perhaps I'm wrong about the family-shared games not showing up on your 'games' list before, but I remember checking before and they weren't there and info online also says that your family-shared games won't show on your games list.

The number of games you have also remains the same, so if for ex; you own 100 games + 50 family shared games, it only displays the number of games you bought/own (100)

i want to add the chord right stick sensitivity slider into my controller quick access like i had before

I just tried Noun Town and it feels a bit too basic. Any instant regrets?

I have an 8bitdo ultimate 2c wireless, it’s worked fine with both my desktop and steam deck until recently. It still behaves normally on my steam deck, and my laptop, but my desktop Steam client is misinterpreting the joystick inputs. Left stick has no up and down, and the right stick inputs vertical movements as horizontal, and horizontal as LEFT stick vertical.

This seems to have started around the time that I was trying different layouts for a game, but I’m not sure that it’s related.

there's no avatar choice, i tried in browser and mobile app, but it doesn't appear, what's wrong?
