Your Steam account is tied to backed up cloud saves. I wouldn’t just give away the account to a complete stranger. Also Steam’s EULA forbids it, so any problem might lead to the account being closed.

I would only give my account to trusted people.

I played TF2 since beta. I’ve played competitive (nothing major, just etf2l div 3) and been to a couple of lans. I have about 3000 hrs logged.

My mains are demo, soldier and scout. Heavy and spy I rarely play. I still hop on every now and then, on a community server that’s still going strong.

Too risky regarding personal info you might’ve overlooked IMO, maybe give it to a friend instead

And obviously it‘s against the ToS and might get the account banned but I assume you know that

Be careful and double / triple check on help.steampowered.com/en/accountdata what information is stored on your account, especially chats, payment information, purchases, subscriptions and so on. But I agree regarding TOS if they ever find out the account will be locked most likely.

This is done all the time to sell games that aren’t available as CD keys, against TOS.

The seller usually gives you a login to a webmail they control, and the account is tied to that email. You can then change the email on the account and you have access to the original email to confirm the move.

Double triple check everything and let a friend try to dig around… Befor posting your Infos make a post and chose a random comment or so. This way you can verify it’s not a bot

Not sure about all the personal stuff, but it is against the TOS to transfer the account.

Big answer is I DONT KNOW, but…

For payment/address stuff you could change them then try to revert to see if it works. For payment get a $5 gift card from Wal-Mart and set that as the credit card.

KISSmyOSFeddit,

I know accounts aren’t transferrable, but what are they gonna do? Ban me after I left their service? Ban the account? That wouldn’t be worse than just letting it sit unused.

Redredme,

On places likw g2a.com steam accounts are sold all the time.

The worse they can do is ban the account. Just give it away if you want.

According to the TOS, no steam accounts are not transferable.

Check your purchases page to see if there is any pii there as that is what steam uses for account recovery.

Haven’t played in a bit, but for sure my forever GOAT as far as total hours of fun had.

I love the Demoman! His grenade launcher is especially fun — the feeling of hitting 2-3 clean pipes in a row is unrivalled in my mind.

Oha, do games w Team Fortress 2

Mostly playing Scout and Pyro. I play Scout when I wanna have fun and pyro is mainly for burning the entire enemy team to crisps

guyrocket, do gaming w Why are arcade cabinets so expensive?
@guyrocket@kbin.social avatar

I own a couple actual vintage arcade machines and paid less for them than this. If you shop around you can find deals.

I also have one of these 1up cabs and it is definitely not like vintage. Software may be the same but it is using a modern monitor not a CRT. I think I paid around 300 for it several years ago. Not full size.

Jarlsburg, do games w What are some excellent free games/total conversions that are worth playing the whole thing?

I recently found out about the Zelda: Link to the Past randomizer community. Essentially there is a method to modify the original game to randomize the item locations and other aspects of the game while ensuring the game can be completed. Each game has a seed so you can look it up if you get to stuck. I played through it once and it was a really interesting challenge since I didn’t get the bow until 60% of the way through the game.

Rai, do games w Team Fortress 2

1k hours of demo, many doing Highlander tourneys

Thank you, unemployment

Sniper.

I like to stand there, with my bunny ears as hat, and wave at my dead opponents.

I think that’s the only class I managed to get all achievements for.
