How to clip on Steam
Clipping on Steam is super easy if you're using the Steam Overlay! Just hit Shift+Tab to bring up the overlay in-game, then find and click on the 'Screenshots' option. If you're looking to capture a moment, press F12 and Steam will save a screenshot for you. For actual video clips, though, you'll need to use an external program like OBS or Nvidia's ShadowPlay to record gameplay, as Steam itself doesn't directly support video recording.

Just press F12. That's the screenshot button. Steam doesn't do video clips natively.
Honestly, if you're serious about clipping your epic gaming moments, skip the built-in stuff and go straight for OBS or ShadowPlay. Steam's great for playing and buying games, but for video clips, you want something with more control and options.
