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?

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

I think the rule would only apply to paid games since it exists to prevent people from buying games for cheap on markets other than theirs. So I’m not sure Valve would ban users for adding a F2P game to their library with a VPN.

It’s certainly against one of Valve’s rules to use a VPN to access Steam. I’ve never heard of anyone getting banned for it though.
