Gift card etiquette

[St✩rlight]

When one of your steam friends gifts you $50 gift card do you spend it on games you want for yourself or try to find a 2 player game and buy 2 copies so you can play it together.

I can't remember ever being gifted a digital gift card on Steam. I don't get gifts that often on Steam to begin with, but whenever I have, it was always a game on my wishlist or just a random game a friend thought I would like.

If I did, though, I would honestly just buy whatever I wanted. If it was me giving someone money, I wouldn't care if they bought something for themselves. That's what I gave them the money for, if I wanted a co-op game for the both of us to play I could just do that myself and gift them the copy.

Just buy what you wanted. It's a gift, not an exchange or trade.

I've only been/ given stuff from people I already play with. Typically I get given games to play with them or I gift games to play with them.

Sometimes I gift games I just think they would enjoy that don't have multiplayer.\

In terms of a card I don't think anything is implied in general. Depends on who gave it to you. Normally anyone who would give me something like that I would already be playing games with.

So I wouldn't think to find something for us both unless we were getting sick of the current games we were playing and at that point we probably would have discussed different games.

Or if I was basically told "here find us a new game to play".

Send them a grumpy cat and then burn it all on DLC's like a crack addict.
