Tbh I could not be arsed to go somewhere to buy a gift card to then use it. I'm more likely to use another platform to buy a game.
It’s not that I don’t have values. I just don’t feel strongly enough about using Steam to make that trip just for a gift card.
Digital gift cards would be okay though.
you don't have to make a trip just for that. you can just visit the shop next time you're nearby.
Of course, but that would mean delaying a purchase by a day or more
That's fair. The ball is in Paypal's court anyway, but I guess digital/prepaid gift cards could also be on the table as well.
