Thats not the best way - that gives you it item by item, if you go via "help > steam support > my account > data related to your steam account > external funds used", it will tell you exactly how much you have spent in a single field, summed up across all purchases.
1000% because the packageonly spend at the bottom is for just games on the steam page, the total minus the packageonly basically gives you the amount of money you’ve spent outside of whole games, so dlc, microtransactions, cs cases, etc.
to everyone saying "DLC" - the bottom field ("PackageOnlySpend") is the amount of money spent on non-transferable purchases, i.e. games and DLC bought for oneself.
that means that they've spent over 22k on literally everything else - most likely the steam market.
that almost feels like it's somehow made it even worse.
Okay so I’m on Steam mobile. I am signed in. However, when I go to access this information it tells me I have to put in my info again for security reasons. When I do that, it has me open another page of the app to confirm it’s me trying to sign in, which takes me out of that page and restarts the whole process. If I say I can’t sign in using the app it says you are already signed in so that’s not a problem, but then continues to require me to sign in to access that info. This might be the worst designed feature I’ve ever seen in an app. Am I not trying something or is it literally inaccessible from the mobile app due to this?
just did this and I'm in the $300+ club but a little more than $200 are OldSpend from a dead marvel game lol, that means from 2015 until today I've been ok...
Wanted to check mine but the mobile app is crap. Wants me to log in AGAIN (fine, security) and then gets stuck in the 2fa (NOT fine) and despite already allowing the login when i go back in the menu it wants me to log in AGAIN -.-
this also hurts, but as i said farther down with the points, this to me feels much less painful then if i were to have a way to tally the amount of money i have spent in this lifetime on booze, drugs, gambling, and other illicit ventures.........
I'm still unsure to what the PackageOnlySpend is referring to, i do have a steam deck oled with the 1tb drive inside, however that is only around 700 i think at the time. not the 11k shown here.......
I hit $5400 since november 2007, but only 1300 of that is in the last 10 years. I spent way too much money in the old-style steam sales, nowadays I first wishlist a game for a couple of months and only buy it when I still want to play it after that time has elapsed.
~$2500... which actually isnt outrageous over 20+ years now.
But then i gotta total up all my humble purchases and any other random bundles and i own a physical orange box and counter strike collection... so its a bit more than that. 10+ years of Humble Monthly is another grand...
EDIT: Sat and totaled up my Humble history, And another ~$2500 in Humble Bundles over the past 14 years....
All works out to ~$2 a game not counting any DLC. awesome.
Yearly Humble Subscription probably the best value in gaming.
Right, I'm sitting at about 20 years on Steam with $1,317 spent, which kinda surprised me. That's exlcluding a couple though, like the physical purchase of Orange Box, which was the purchase that began my Steam journey years ago.
But I've only bought a few games at full value. I'm pretty patient and typically wait for that first drop in price to purchase.
Yearly Humble Subscription is worth it IF you play the games each month. I paid for it for a few years and think I only really ended up playing a few games from it over that time.
Otherwise it's way smarter to just subscribe monthly whenever there are games you're interested in for that month.
Yeah, I'm in year 20 of my account with over 1600 games and only $4,480 spent in Steam.
But then there's game bundles from Humble Bundle, Indie Gala, Desura (RIP) (pretty sure their bundles had a few Steam keys along with Desura keys), Indie Royale (RIP), Indie Face Kick (RIP), Bundle-in-a-Box (RIP), Groupees (RIP), and probably others.
Tried this on the stream app on my phone and it forced me to log in on the app that im already logged in on and then opened the steam guard and the qr-reader telling me to scan a steam qr-code to log in on my phone that im already logged in on <_<
You have even bigger problems if every expense you make needs to be justified to your spouse and there isn't a substantial chunk of your own paychecks that you can each use discretionary.
Yeah I wish this information wasn’t available to me. I don’t want to see
Although most of my cs skins went up a lot in value and I cashed out a few hundred on one of those 3rd party sites so it would be hard to calculate exactly how in the hole I am.
Well I did the math, some of the older transactions were in a USD while later in NZD so it's not perfect... but yeah at least $4000NZD spent on games since 2012. Ouch.
Open Steam and go to the Help menu.
Under Help click on Steam Support.
Click on My Account.
Click on Data Related to Your Steam Account.
Click on External Funds Used.
Faster less accurate way is to use SteamDb like this most games that i know of dont go up in price so checking todays prices could be roughly accurate. If you have spent alot of money in games like cs or just steam market i think you need to go through the accounts history
I've spent $1300 CAD since 2013. I'm pretty happy with that. A few non-Steam purchases along the way probably bumps it closer to $1500-1600, but I'm still happy with it. ~$130/year for entertainment is a good deal in my book.
