With Steam's gifting policy changed, is it possible for me to gift someone a game anonymously? or even from a throwaway account?
No, you have to gift from a throwaway Steam account.
What changed?

You can't gift from mail and gifts are no longer stored in your inventory iirc
Steam in past used your email to show to who you gifted they'd receive your email. There wasn't anonymity in steam.
It says if I make a throwaway account I have to be friends with the person. Do they have to accept or can I just add them only on my end?

Why? To get rid of game trading?
can anybody gift me a good game please

Just pirate, retard. I don't know why people want other people to spend money on shit for them when they can get stuff for free.
>B-BUT THAT'S ILLEGAL
So you are okay with people paying for your shit, don't be a bitch.

Horrible taste, let me guess, your faggot ass wants to play PUGB? Ask mommy for money, faggot.

...I'm not the one who wants a game, just pointing out that there is in fact a valid reason to wanting a game legally instead of pirating it.
You must add the person you want gift as friend and can only send gifts directly via steam.
Also care when gifting into other countries, steam sometimes forbids transactions e.g from NZ you can't gift anything to people in Europe.

Basically yea. That's done with keys and gifts, cant do much against keys
I've had Tomb Raider 2013 sitting in my inventory for years. No fucker wants it. I already have it. It came in a bundle. Fucks knows how I can remove it now.

this faggot can't get a feature by pirating so he has already decided that the game must be shit
/v/ in a nutshell everyone

Kinda nice, actually. I have like a dozen shitty old games in my inventory that I'm probably never going to give to anyone. I wish there was something I could do with them. I'm talking shit like Brink, Tomb Raider Underworld, one of the train simulators, garbage like that.
