Why do so many Steam users not use avatars?
>>334381278
slavs
>>334381278
Some people use it to play games and not as a social media platform.
You have to buy them outside of the US
>>334381278
Maybe this question mark is actually their avatars
>>334381278
throw away accounts
also slavs who don't wish to get recognized when playing dota 2
Sometimes it's this, the people the played Portal 2 on PS3 I think. I have a friend who did that but then went PC and it's still his avatar.
>>334381278
it is the edgyness
>>334381278
>>334381447
Why bother using an avatar unless you are trying to be a special snow flake?
Don't say its for identification either. People are capable of reading, and those who you are acquainted with will recognize your account.
>>334381447
I don't have any profile info or use it to socialize but I still have an avatar and a nickname that isn't gibberish
>>334381278
Some people like to play games and not make friends with other faggots
>>334381278
I have no idea. I have a good friend that used the ? for literally 10 years, then one day chose some random fallout 2 image. It's still disconcerting seeing the new avatar 2 years later.

>Why bother using an avatar unless you are trying to be a special snow flake?
I appreciate it when other people have avatars as long as they're not being edgy or reddit because it lets you know a little about who you're up against.
>>334382357
>as long as they're not being edgy
You'd hate my dad, he always uses those edgy as fuck avatars on steam
>>334382357
nice buzzwords
>>334381278
only autist use avatars
>friend suddenly starts using furries, smug anime girls or undertale characters as their avatar
>block and delete them
>having an avatar
I knew /v/ was autistic but come on
>>334381278
i used to do that because i couldn't be bothered to upload a picture
now i have some throwaway picture
>>334381278
I didn't have avatar for like 5 years. Didn't need it to play games. My steam avatar is just copied MAL avatar.
>>334381278
Why would I want use one?
>>334382565
>yet you use pepe as your avatar

>>334382860

>add girl on steam

>>334381278
Why would i spend more time in steam than absolutely necessary?
Steam is a fucking tumor on pc gaming.
r8 my avatar
>>334383048
He's like 62. Plays CS and Black Ops 3 all fucking day.
My Mom's on steam too, she way too much into Euro Truck Simulator.
>>334383003
Link it
>>334383281
that's cool as fuck, my mom is a casual only plays candy crush saga
>>334382057
>People are capable of reading
Avatars are a unimportant which beggs the question, why the fuck does anyone make threads about them?
>>334383281
>>334383431
>tfw nobody else in my family likes video games
I use an avatar because I think it's fairly cool and because I enjoy looking at it.
>>334383281
My dad is 53 and mostly plays War Thunder and Red Alert 2.
In csgo this is a clear sign of some smurfing or hacking faggot.

This teeeeeebeeeeeee÷eee ayyyyyyttttccchhhh
They're normies and don't care about shit like their profile.
>why arent some people using steam as their facebook profile??! :(
>>334383951
>War Thunder
Which faction?
I know German airforce WW2 vet, who was playing IL-2. He piloted Bf-109 almost exclusively
>>334384590
You do realize your avatar shows up in other places than your Steam profile? Like in multiplayer games
>>334383943
>jajajaja ¿cómo estás tan mal en los juegos de puta madre
>>334385395
Oh really?
Is this thread going to generate into a Steam friends thread?Because I'm desperate for a friend.
>>334385476
Yes, and if people use them, instead of seeing a bunch of question marks in a row you actually get variety and colors on your screen.
>>334385627
Do you have a cute anime avatar?
>>334383195
A solid 8/10
>>334385627
No its not, go away
>>334385673

>>334385705
>desperate losers are already here
>>334385673
>simple shapes and primary colors needed to keep you occupied
its autism
>>334385750
I've been here since the start.
>>334385387
That's really neat. What did he think of the game's authenticity?
Mine
>one shot
>>334383814
I know that feel.
>be the only child
>tfw all the video games I wanted and didn't have to share them with anybody
>>334381278
Because James Cameron is a hack
>>334385857
never heard him complaining.
It was quite some time after release and only dedicated sim players stayed, so no one complained about realistic scenarios + playing in full autism mode.
Best fun was when we were playing with other squadrons to recreate historical air battles.
>escorting mission
>we chase off Germans pretty well from bombers
>suddenly Me-262
>no one told us there will be Me-262
>panic as fuckers just fly to our bombers and shred them with hail of 30mm, before we even react
>>334381278
My fursona isn't drawn yet so I don't have an Avatar
