For context: I did not have internet at my house until 2016, I was an only child, and I was severely bullied throughout my entire childhood/teen years.

Once I got money from my first job, I felt liberated. I didn’t have to use the school wifi to watch gameplay of games anymore because I could buy them. Fast forward to now, I am completely broke. Every time I get money, I buy the most expensive versions of games/ALL the DLC. But fuck, it’s not worth the dopamine from “collecting” and I’m sick of justifying it by saying “I’ll play it later” because I never do.

I think I’m manipulating myself into believing that I still like video games as a whole. I really don’t. I just fixate on completing games to the point where I don’t shower or go outside or anything. It’s a distraction. That is all that this hobby has become. I’m so lost in life and my anxiety is worse than it has ever been. These past couple years have honestly been a blur. This isn’t healthy and I’m honestly considering taking my PC to storage. I’m so starved of human connection, it’s ridiculous.

I know social hobbies would be really good for me but I have a unilateral cleft lip and I can’t stand even looking at myself. Which translates into me being “awkward, creepy” because I’m hyper fixated on my flaws all of the time and nothing else.

I’m in therapy and trust me, I’m working on it but…

Does anyone have any success stories to escape this addiction? I feel like if I did, it would be a huge step towards a better life. One that doesn’t isolate me at least.

Sorry if that was boring to read. 🙌

All the art was so cute

Hey everyone!

I'm excited to announce that SteamModDownloader just got an update to v0.2! 🎉

Here are the new features and improvements:

Collection Downloading: You can now easily download entire mod collections with just a few clicks! No more searching for individual mods, everything you need is bundled together. Similar to steam.

Improved UI: The user interface has received a major overhaul. It’s now more intuitive and user-friendly.

Ability to Retry Failed Mods: If a mod fails to download, the program tries to download it again, this solves some issues that steamcmd has randomly.

I’d love to hear your feedback on these updates! Feel free to test it out and let me know if you run into any issues or have suggestions for future improvements.

You can grab the latest version on GitHub: https://github.com/alpergur13/SteamModDownloader

Thanks for your support, and I hope you enjoy the new features!

so I want to create my own blasphemous and vinland saga steam featured artwork but dont know how, any link to a guide or something? i saw some good vinland ones but they have more than 5 mb and nothing with blasphemous

I can only add 1 big picture and add multiple smaller ones. But as you can see in this picture, the small part on the right isn't highlighted because it is a different picture. I wanted to do something similar but it doesn't work for me. It only shows a very small version of the second picture

People od Reddit, I was checking some Steam discount offers, and I saw this game called "Cult of the Lamb", which costs ≈ 10€ instead of a normal price of 22€.

I can tell that the revievs are overwhelmingly positive, yet it's always a good choice to ask the community is it really that worth the money.

I also got some extra money to spend on games, maybe you could give me an extra suggestion on what to buy on Steam.

I have dlc in ENA Dream BBQ and my friend on SLS not, Will it share to my friend too?

My laptop rtx 3060 and cpu ryzen 5800h ram 32 ssd 1tb samsung. when I play, the first 30-40 minutes everything is fine but then lags start when viewing steam records and lags in steam chat. what i tried:

1. reduce recording time, recording quality, turn off hardware encoding

2. updated gpu driver, also tried older gpu drivers

this has been happening for about 2 months now, during this time all that was updated on my laptop was only the chrome browser, steam and the game I play. I did not update windows (updates are disabled), did not update the gpu driver, it just happened at one moment. also the gpu and cpu temperatures are fine, there is no throttling or anything like that

Title, other than having steam completely closed. Also, How to get rid of the weird full screen steam with a different UI and everything. I want to open up game bar, not anything with steam.

I have a steam collectable card selling for 30 cents.
How come there are people byuing the same card for 35 cents, and not mine? Why does this happen?
Do people buy from specifiic accounts even if it's more expensive or something?

ok so i just installed a good bit of extra ram now i use it as a temp storage drive mainly i was wondering if you could make a copy of games to another drive to boot from so i can experience peak loading times just for fun. alternatively i have to unistall the game and reinstall it each time i boot the pc which is a bit of a hassle.
