Valve confirms your Steam account cannot be transferred to anyone after you die
The confirmation came from the Steam support staff earlier this month when Resetera forum user delete12345 asked Steam support if he can put his Steam library in...
If you cannot pass on your ownership rights to your purchased games to your children, then you cannot pass on your copyright either, I guess?
You're viewing a single thread.
That's ridiculous. You should be free to give away, sell, or trade digital games just like you can with physical copies.
In the EU, you can.
But only the whole account, or did that change
Not the whole account, only individual games.
Last I heard, Steam hadn't actually implemented that functionality yet, though.
It would probably take someone to sue them, but they would have to implement it.
Transferring the whole account after you die is what this post is about.
Agree, even more so with the private cloud data. If your loved one dies and you want to visit multiplayer you created together in open world builders it would be shitty to take that away from them. Eg: Father and son played Minecraft together on LAN server or whatever (If that even is a thing)
