I’ve heard there’s a way to get this game, DOA Xtreme Venus Vacation on Steam if you use a VPN to say you’re from singapore…

I was a big fan of DOA Xtreme Beach Volleyball back in the day so I’d like to snag this title, but… I’m worried if I do Steam will ban my account

I can’t seem to find a straight answer on if this is safe or not. What do you say Lemmy?

Why would Valve ban you?

If you’re paranoid about this then just make a new account on a VM or fresh install of an OS - you’ll be in a VPN anyway, only other possibility would be if they were tracking the other accounts that had been logged in locally and associating them.

Well, because I’d be using a VPN to access a game in another market, isn’t that against the rules.

Is that one of Valve’s rules, or just one of the video game publisher’s rules?

It’s one of Valve’s rules. They’re actually pretty serious about it too.
