The reason you set a steam shop location. If it’s longer term it may be beneficial to change the region but usually you can let it be whereever you want.

HawlSera@lemm.ee 10 months agoArent you not allowed to buy games if Steam thinks you’re somewhere you aren’t?

I’ve never heard of that. Pretty sure even if they cared about that for some reason, there would be nothing they could do about it. What are they gonna do, take you to court? They can’t prove you weren’t in the Netherlands.

That would be very easy to proof actually (Not that I think Op did anything wrong or that steam would care)

How would it be easy? Please elaborate how steam would go about investigating OPs private life around the day of purchase and gather actual proof of them not going to the netherlands.

You’re also not allowed to cross the street outside of a crosswalk

I don’t know if you’re kidding, but that would be a very weird law.
