Thought it was just me.
Have been attempting to get COH 1 to no avail.

Picked up Yakuza 0, played about 45 minutes and decided it's not for me. First time I've requested a refund from Steam!

Random question, does any one getting more attempts than you'd like at someone trying to access your account.

I seem to get about one a month of 'Your Steam account: Access from new computer' emails in my Hotmail. Have changed my password on numerous occasions (not via the link in the email).

I installed this on Game Pass a while back. Uninstalled after 2 hours. Rubbish.

Love Yakuza games but there are 6 of them and I didn't feel like playing past 2 as they are all very samey.

Yeah - they can't really do much whilst 2FA is on. Just annoying how frequently it happens.

Same here, I've had steam for almost 16 years and I dont think I have ever had one of those emails.

Same here, I've had Steam almost 14-15 years

I suggest @doodah doesn't sign up for those hot local singles in his area with his main email address

I use my fake email address for those, thank you very much!

Had my Stream account since 2004, had no dodgy emails. Plus I use 2FA, so no one could do anything anyways.

Bought Firewatch, Divinity Original Sin 2 and Risk of Rain 2 today. Thinking I should probably get Outer Wilds also...

Firewatch was pretty refreshing. 3.5 hours and finished. It didn't need to be any longer.
Recommended if you haven't played already and don't mind a walking sim.

Yeah completely agree, I thought Firewatch was fantastic and as you say exactly the right length. Tempted with Outer Wilds as well.

I get that, sometimes it goes quiet, sometimes it's a lot more than one a month, again changed my password multiple times and no evidence of actual entry/'hacking' by anyone either in Steam or my email account, so I just ignore it now...

Did have a look a bit ago and found comments from a few people 'suffering' the same but never any answer/fix...

Anyone tried making a fresh Steam account and gifting games to your main account to get the £5 discount?

Admiral Huddy · 30 Jun 2020 at 16:58

Just got "We Happy Few".. Been on my wishlist for a while. May even get around to playing at some point. It's a shame other game producers are now having their own game launchers. Steam is a great platform and i'm starting to forget where all my games are.
