Reply to Steam OS password in Personal Computing Elemental Forums

just use the usual "forgot password" stuff... (there's some secret question or something i think) to get steam to reset it and allow you to pick a new one unless you are talking about something different altogether... i'm assuming you are talking about your steam account pw... no idea about steamos..

bought it (within), played it for a bit and got seriously fed up with the grappling hook bug sending my men all over the map. so giving up for now. they are seriously slack with the patching and bug fixing. i imagine it's understandable for the console versions, but pc? pfft
