Steam is removing support for OAuth

Frog when did you begin posing as Charlemagne?

Your Empire is beginning to crumble, sire. Soon all there is left, will be some small warring counts and dukes together with a frog king.

U is kill alredi. No rgrds

Steam is going to shit, deeper and deeper month after month.

Yeah that's a good question, I thought about it and would like to know the same.

The keys have always been there, they just did not display and automatically redeemed. I imagine they will just show up now.

I simply click to show the key I'm about to use or give away, simple and effective way to keep track of things.

+1, like groupees did

this "stupid gift link crap" was letting you easily distinguish which keys have been used/redeemed and which have not. It also made it easy to verify if winner activated his win on his account or on another account or traded gift or never used it. Pretty damn good usabilities compared to "crap" of having to click mouse button 3 more times to activate your win...

Maybe no more sales?

wtf dude...

Indiegala or is that something else.

They could keep it so you have to click a button to generate the key, best of both worlds.

Nah. They will charge a monthly fee. Then go "F2P" with massive cash shop.

I'm pretty sure they'll just use the usual "it's for security" excuse

Can't even think of any Real Reason as this doesn't have much with RU store exploitation or such.

Step 1: Remove OAuth support.
Step 2: Remove Steam Key Activation.
Step 3: Remove Trading.
Step 4: Profit.

Prevents scamming, duh! (no idea how that works, but yeah)

They already more or less have this: You have to increase steam level (craft badges by buying cards) to increase max number of friends.

Think about that. Phishing bots would require to pay.

People only hated it at first because Humble introduced it without the gift links, so there was no way to give or trade your keys. That was, until a very short while later, that Humble added gift links and everyone calmed down.

It wasn't about trades, it was about reselling HB games on eBay, g2a, etc, to avoid ppl doing it. Because it goes against their ToS. Reselling games from promos like Nvidia or AMD is against their terms too, but nobody cares, so here on HB same.

I prefer the way Groupees handles keys too.

+1 for groupees

Expect their key activation never worked as well as humbles. It would always need relogin.

Then you're going to be disappointed, because it relies on the same thing (OAuth). Groupees' system is going to need to change now.

No. It's based on OpenID.

hah nice one
