All launchers mustdie and devs need to go back to selling their games directly.

[–] Nalivai@lemmy.world 1 points 7 minutes ago

Nothing stops them and yet they mostly don't. There is no good way for a dev to put a game before your eyes, so they have to have some kind of store to do it.

Cool, now tell me how you update the game without every game shipping it's own crappy updater/launcher?

I lost access to my googe account and with it my Steam account with 400+ games on it.

Tried to get it back through support but they won't allow it because I can't tell them the credit card details that were apparently used to buy a game once.

I have never owned a credit card so I have no idea what they're on about and they kindly told me to get fucked.

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 1 points 5 minutes ago

Maybe it was a debit card?

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 1 points 8 minutes ago

I lost access to my PSN account because they want me to do third-party verification with an authorization app that I apparently had linked to it like a decade ago, but don't know what it was.

Their alternative verification is to verify purchase histories on my PSN account, which is hard to do when the whole problem is I can't access my PSN account.

That'll be the same problem in steam.
But i agree with you.

Maybe a friend bought you a game with their card at some point?

Or you used your parents' card if you were younger?

For 400+ games I imagine you already thought of those possibilities though

Do you know any of the payment methods you used?
