Just read some details, it's a monthly fee too? Wouldn't that really screw over single-player games which don't do recurring revenue?

They pushed this change with the always online dev kit. I believe the price change is a smoke screen for the other changes. Soon they might step back on this decision.

My account is @hotmail.com. I’m not sure I’m in this wave, but it must be a few weeks till I hit it.

Mine is still a @yahoo login but I wont hit 20 years until February.

EveningPancakes,

I guess I was dumb when creating it back then.

EveningPancakes,

Mine is @yahoo, really wish I could change it.

scottywh,

If you still have access to the original email address you can definitely change it.

EveningPancakes, (edited )

Hmm I’ve definitely changed the email that was associated with the account name, but the account name I think originally required an email domain in the field? That is something that you cannot change. It’s fine though, because the user name can be changed.

Found it on the FAQ, Account ID can’t be changed - help.steampowered.com/en/…/2816-BE67-5B69-0FEC

scottywh,

My account becomes 20 years old in 5 days and I’ve never had an email domain in the account name.

EveningPancakes,

Yeah I dunno, maybe I was dumb back then but I’ve seen others posting similar questions/observations on Reddit and elsewhere before. Thankfully Steam lets you change the display profile name.

Mines a domain I used to have thinking I was cool. I was not…

omgitsaheadcrab,

The aftermath from its main audience, mobile devs, is going to be biblical.

This article has some new quotes and details. I know we have the other thread going, but this would get buried over there.

I thought it was because they used npcs from fo4 but they standout more against the better rendered scenes.

instamat,

Lol mine too. I guess I wasn’t that early of an adopter.

Did you make your account for Half-Life 2? My account is the same age, and that’s the game that introduced me to Steam.

Speculater,
@Speculater@lemmy.world avatar

I think so or CS, I’m not sure?

I made an account in January 2005, probably for HL2.
I initially resisted making an account and I hated Steam back then.
They’ve since fixed a lot of things and I now have 250+ games on it.
I have to admit, Valve is one of the few big game companies that haven’t gone to absolute shit.
Though I dread the day GabeN steps down or sells out…

Another thing that I didn’t agree with back in the day was WoW, paying a subscription to play was a hard no. Still haven’t played it, which kinda sucks because I was a big fan of the old Warcraft games and of RPGs in general.
Voting with my wallet certainly didn’t change much for them, although it probably was better for me.

gridleaf,
@gridleaf@lemmy.world avatar

That’s quite similar to me. I got HL2 Jan. 2005. I played Guild Wars instead of WoW because I didn’t want to pay for a sub.

InEnduringGrowStrong,
@InEnduringGrowStrong@sh.itjust.works avatar

The first Guildwars was great.
The second one was nice too and I played it a bunch, but there’s something about the first I can’t quite put my finger on, might just be nostalgia.
My GW2 time has been mostly spent helping people with jumping puzzles, which are kinda cut short these days by mesmers making portals for them, which I also do sometimes.

CancerMancer,

WoW is a bit nuts: you pay a subscription fee and buy expansions? What’s the damn fee for then?

fuzzzerd,

Servers ain’t free. But they could at least roll the expansion cost into the subscription.

Xyzipper,

I hit 16 a few months ago.

mosiacmango,

Orange box homies say whatsup.

funkmunki,
@funkmunki@lemmy.world avatar

Yes! I spent entirely too much time in TF2 and Gmod.

mosiacmango,

Haha yup. I bought it for half life, but figured i would play the other games first. Portal was amazing, so I gave TF2 a shot next.

I didn’t play half life for like 2 years.

wowbagger,

Hitting 20 in 5 hours… ;)

ipkpjersi,

I am at 16 as well. I feel so old now lol

aulin,

Only 18 here.

ReluctantMuskrat,

Same here. I created my account after getting Half-Life 2 for Christmas. Hard to believe that came out in Nov 2004.

XTornado,

15 here.
