I bought Mega Man X Dive Offline, really hyped for it, but then when I double checked my VPN, I realized it was set for the Netherlands… Not good, I thought I had it set for the US as per usual.

Now it still showed the price in USD, but now I’m paranoid, I put in a refund explaining the situation and promising I’d buy it with the VPN turned off this time…

How fucked am I?

    I’ve never heard of that. Pretty sure even if they cared about that for some reason, there would be nothing they could do about it. What are they gonna do, take you to court? They can’t prove you weren’t in the Netherlands.

      That would be very easy to proof actually (Not that I think Op did anything wrong or that steam would care)

        How would it be easy? Please elaborate how steam would go about investigating OPs private life around the day of purchase and gather actual proof of them not going to the netherlands.
