Is there a way to "farm" steam trading cards? And what are its mechanics?
Best Answer
There are 3rd-party programs such as the Steam Achievement Manager (SAM for short) which allows you to manipulate achievements at your whim. Note that developers who have locked achievements will prevent you from manipulating those.
There are 3rd-party programs which can simulate running a game for you in order to get the card drops needed from the game, all without needing to have the game installed. In fact, as stated before, in Steam Achievement Manager you can simply double click on a game to have it "running" even without it being installed, and you will receive card drops dependent on how many drops you have left.

Trading Card drops are currently just tied to playtime within a game, independent of which achievements you are getting.How do you reset card drops on steam?
No, card drops don't reset. The only exception to this is F2P games like Team Fortress 2, where you get extra card drops for spending money in-game. It's sad they don't reset, for some you're just forced to buy them which is sad :/ I sell every card I get, free money!Can steam achievements be cheated?
Yes you can get banned for achievement cheating but you have to do it on a VAC server. The game devs can game ban you if they find out as this has happened at times so you can always send reports to both steam and the game's support.Fastest Steam Card Idle Method | 2022 Updated Guide | ArchiSteamFarm
