Should i add this to my main steam account or my secondary one?

[Cool_Doggo]

Hello! Recently i got a key for this game from humble choice and i was wondering on wich account i should redeem it on, i have a second steam account that i use to try out games i get from random key packs or that i use to add games i dont want to have on my main account (this is my main account) so wich should it be?

This is a really weird question.

If you doubts the random key then add it to your second steam account (which is smart thing to do instead of losing your main account). If this isn't your regular type of game you enjoy add it to your second steam account.

If you enjoy the game you can wait for a sale price and then buy it for your main account.

I just wanna know if its a good quality game, thats all so i know if its belonging on my trashpile or my main account, i like trying new stuff as you can see there are plenty of different genres of games in my main library, if its a good quality game tell me and i'll add it to my main account (this one)

A 5 star quality in my book!

Yes, and if you need more advices for decisions, like buying a car or how to color your living room, we are here for you...

The question is, what is the problem with just adding evertyhing on the main account?
If its trash you simply dont play it.

Only reason for a second account is as already stated, if the key is from a sus source and you dont want to get your acc banned or what ever.

Noone can tell you if you will like the game or not, or if you perceive is as good quality or bad quality game.
There are AAA games from big studius that are utterly trash and indie titles that are super good.

if you get illegitimate steam keys from a grey market site they can end up being revoked from your account

if there's a pattern of this you can eventually lose your account, though if you're just genuinely acting in good faith then there's nothing to worry about


if you actually got the key from humble then there's nothing to worry about

I heard that its unlikely for keys to be revoked, but yes i got it from humble choice, now back to the main question do i add this to my main account? Just say a simple yes or no, you can answer whenever you like since the key wont expire

[Pheace]

You made up your own arbitrary reasons for using two accounts so why not make up your own mind what arbitrary category it falls into? This question seems rather pointless.

if you like the genre it's an above average entry in it

Okay i will add it to this account soon, thank you

Based on your wording I'm going to infer that "trash" games are games that you try and then will never play again and don't want to ever seen them again.

Well, you may not know this:

You can (technically) permanently remove games from your account. I used to have about 1000 games on my account but I've slowly purged them down to about 500 over the past month.

For almost every game you can click on the game in your Library, click the 'Three Dot' icon in the right pane, click support, and choose "I want to permanently remove this game from my account". You can only do about 8 in a row until you start getting an error message. You just wait a few hours and go again.

Alternatively, if you don't care about the seeing the game but want to keep it, you can simply right click the game and make it "hidden". If you simply don't want people seeing you own the game then you'd just make it "private" instead.

With these tools there's really no reason, based on the words you said, why you'd need to maintain two accounts.
