The ability to store notes on your steam account and notes per game.

[Fugus]

I make this suggestion as a bunch of games require secondary logins or other services to run. Elder Scrolls Online & Grand Theft Auto V are good examples of that. We also have stuff like Farcry 3 which also installs Uplay with it's own login and password.

Would like to see them implement a built in notepad section into steam and a the ability to add notes to your individual games.

That way people can use their steam account to also keep track of the logins and passwords of it's other games within their library and the system notepad to keep track of other clients that steam might install or possibly other small notes related to their games.

It should be trivial to implement and would allow players a major convenience factor when it comes to keeping their games information organized.

What do you mean by a guide?
The benefit to what i describe is having access to it when you switch computers.
If you mean an in game thing where you da keep notes, some games dont have it.
The reason i looked for a solution to this problem in the first place was for stardew valley (which is primarily controller based with no place to keep notes)

I am talking about these:

You can only see there the guides that i have public

Well, that makes me feel like a di'kut for not thinking of it in the first place. Creating a hidden guide is the next best thing to writing notes, only has marginally more steps than implementing a notes tool. And you can share it with others (why one would deem that necessary escapes me) if you feel so inclined.
It's great for keeping track of stuff that I am currently pursuing, in case I have to take a break from games for work reasons or whatever. So far I've used it for dozens of my sandbox games.

And for those without common sense, don't put personal passwords on anything digital ever if you can help it. Use post-its like a normal person.

Needed feature.

But don't bother asking for ANYTHING here. Steam Defenders will do everything in their power to advise against anything you propose.

it already exists as guides - funny how "defending" actually means "knowing stuff" to people who do not

Add notes to games would be great, for games of your own and for games in the store!!!

Can i just say that storing your passwords on a post it note is the worst idea in the history of cybersecurity?

Use a password manager, encrypt it with a master password. Make the master password nice and long. Use multiple words to form a phrase that only you can remember. Find a password manager with sync capabilities.

5 year old sensible request. ;)

Just found this thread, and figured I'd let y'all know that Augmented Steam - the most popular Steam browser extension these days - now lets you leave notes on games. Go wild, boys

5 year old dumb request. Valve wouldn't be silly enough to provide something that encourages **** security.

Never store login details in plain text. If you want to store them do so in a password manager as it'll encrypt them. Plenty of free password managers available. I've been using Keepass for years. Has both a desktop and mobile version.

This thread is about "The ability to store notes on your steam account and notes per game". I realize that someone derailed it, talking about passwords. I did not. So, monkey can come down from the rage tree now. :)

For passwords was in the OT thus this was and always was a stupid idea. Bolded and underling and quoted below No rage just stating facts. I even provided an alternate option in regards to the password component of the suggestion. If that's what you consider raging you have no clue about what a rage post is
