Question

ok so me and my little brother have game shared using the family library beta, but only one of us can play dark souls three at a time. recently my gf moved in with me and i added her to our family. she also owns dark souls three, so if there is more than one copy in the family library- can he play ds3 at the same time as me? or since im the founder of the family does only my copy of the game work? i was wondering bc her games are available to me as mine are to her, so can he use her copy and play with me?

I have Amazon gift cards in my account, how can I get steam wallet money with them. I have Amazon gift cards in my account, how can I get steam wallet money with them.
Question

Long story short. Family member got them as a gift for steam (they thought I could buy games that way). So now I just have a bunch of Amazon money that I really don’t have a use for, I’d prefer to just get a digital code instead of a physical card so I don’t have to pay shipping. But I’m not seeing this as an option.


If I play a demo of a game that isn't standalone, but is on the same store page as the game itself, and then buy the game, will the demo playtime be added to my overall game playtime?

Question

Also, does the demo in my library then change into the full game or will they act as 2 separate games like with standalone demos?





I've purchased Control from Kinguin which is displayed as "Control Ultimate Edition" on Steam, despite lacking the DLCs.

“Enter Offline Mode” “Enter Offline Mode”
Question

Hello folks.

Forgive the mobile formatting. I have a laptop that I use to play games on when I travel to work. My steam account has long been unaccessible as the e-mail used for two factor was breached last year, so I deleted the mail and updated my whole online identity.

It’s never been a problem with steam. I play mostly older games that no not require DRM. I simply disconnect my computer off of Wi-Fi, launch steam in offline mode and away I play.

However, recently when I go to click the button “Enter offline mode” which is an option when attempting to login with no internet connection, nothing happens. The button depresses as if it is being selected but then nothing else. The box simply stays on the screen.

Steam support is useless of course. They want CD keys for games I purchased 12-14 years ago, so accessing my account is not an option.

The button simply refuses to work. Any ideas at all?

Question

I want to buy a game for a friend in the Philippines. The games there are much cheaper, but if I buy it as a gift I still have to pay the EU price for it. Is there a way I can purchase a game that are bought as a gift with the price where the target account is located? I already bought the game for myself with the full price, which I'm fine with.


Does enable steam input allow you to play a game with controller that says it doesn’t have controller support? Does enable steam input allow you to play a game with controller that says it doesn’t have controller support?
Question

This may be a very specific and stupid question because I’m a novice, but I have a Legion Go handheld gaming device (similar to a steamdeck and ROG Ally) but I kind of want to play some sports management games (and some indie games) while on the go. Problem is the ones I play (OOTP for example) say that they don’t support controller input.

If I try to use them on my device I’m forced to use the trackpad, or maybe the touchscreen or have to connect with a wireless mouse and keyboard (which defeats the purpose of playing on the go).

I’ve never dabbled with enable steam input so before I do was wondering if I use it does it force games like this that don’t natively support controllers to allow controller support?
