Steam needs your credit card to prove youre an adult.>oops not working>oops not working>put in your phone number>oops not working>look at camra go up down left right>there now you can buy doom
>be australian
>>109768879We've warned you about this since 2006 and you called us paranoid nerds and pedos.What do you want us to do at this point?We told you for nearly 21 goddamn years this would happen.
>>109768879What happens to someone that already have a 10+ years account? They will demand this too?
>>109768879Your government begged them to do this btw
>>109768931Yes
>>109768879I'm tired to laugh at gaymen. I was a gaymer too when I was young, and we thankfully didn't need to go through all this bullshit.the writing on the wall says, everyone else is next, so we might as well stop laughing, because we're next
>>109768879just pirate it. oh wait you're australian maybe you shouldn't have complained now the nanny police are heading to your location
>>109768879>giving money to Valve
>>109768879Thank you for doing your part in Protecting the Children.
>>109768879>buy doomYou should boycott Microsoft.
>>109768943yeah you can blame valve all you want, but they just want your money, its the government forcing them to do this
>>109768879>>there now you can buy doomNigger, now I can MAKE doom. I haven't fucking touched Steam or grass in 6 months.
>>109768879>credit cardAre you just window shopping? How are you going to use steam without a payment method? Adding a credit card as ID is fine, its non-intrusive compared to passports and drivers licenses being mass uploaded and stored unencrypted by who knows.
>>109768879You voted for this
>>109768879who cares you need to give them that to pay anyway. main problem with this if steam can just ask for a credit card why are all the other companies taking penis scans and id photos
>>109769281>>109769357Everybody uses debit cards in Australia; I don't even know anyone who has a credit card. Valve just fucked over their Australian sales by mandating god damn CREDIT cards.
>>109769381>Valve just fucked over their AustralianIt sounds more like Australians tried to fuck over Valve using that law/regulation mentioned in OP screenshot.
>>109768952Fucking retarded argument. If an account could've been made by someone else, a credit card could also have been entered by someone else in the past. I'm deleting my Steam account. If any of you give a shit, you need to do the same. It's time to get comfortable with making sacrifices in the name of morality.
>>109768952what happened to all the clankers why do they all start with a yes
>>109769397The age verification laws are fucking stupid but there's a billion other ways to demonstrate your age that aren't a credit card. For instance, how about the fact my account was made 20 fucking years ago???
>>109769409How about you don't force companies to verify user's age if you don't want your age to be verified?
>>109768879I'm just tired of this bullshit, man. And I don't feel like troubleshooting retro gaming and piracy so I might let all this shit go and start reading books.
>>109769435>troubleshooting retro gamingNonsense>download emulator>download game>click play>???>PROFIT!
>>109768879Piracy doesn't require age verificationPaypigs BTFO
>>109768918haha yes it will never be added to other countries for sure
>>109768879I can't wait for the next wave of "piracy is le bad"
>completely overvalued hardware>very mid game sales>still no steamOS support for nvidia>cs2 is complete dogshit kept alive by casino addicts and unemployed cheating orks>literally risks putting malware on your machine but YOU are the one who has to verifyI believe this companys good reputation is only existent because of reddits cock worship of wholesome chungus gabe
>>109769545Valve isn't the one who came up with age verification laws. Maybe vote for politicians that won't force you to do stupid shit like that if you don't want to do stupid shit like that?
>>109769545>still no steamOS support for nvidiaMaybe NVIDIA should do what everyone else does and make their drivers open source.
>>109769449>BIOS dumping, random crashing, fine tuning graphical settings, mapping controls, skimming through forums in order to solve issues, dead download links, shader stuttering... not to mention specific hardware optimizationsAll of this may be part of the hobby for you, but for me isn't.
>>109769592>fine tuning graphical settingsDid they just thaw you out from 2006? I don't know a single modern emulator that even has plugins.
>>109768952>source:leddit
>>109769406>It's time to get comfortable with making sacrifices in the name of morality.I stopped taking baths and flushing the toilet for the same reason. I tell people that I'm just being moral but not everyone is actually as reasonable as they say they are. They're all for principles until they meet the principled.

>>109769409>how about the fact my account was made 20 fucking years ago???if they were allowed to do that they would
>>109769961That's what Newgrounds went with.
>>109769912No Australia is following European globohomos tracking and control what young men do on the internet. And digital id for everyone. The only age verify in America right now are porn sites in repub states. The dems want to copy Europe and Australia. Hard to do nationwide if trump is around
>>109768918Their accent is pretty cool, also decent women.
