Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, there is already a banner at the top to remind user they own a product, and a button to go to the corresponding item(s) in the library:

I missed it thought and clicked on the Download button, then "No thanks, just take me to the downloads" hoping it would show me the item, but it didn't recognize I had already paid for it, so I had to manually go to my Library (until I noticed the top banner).

I understand why the Download Now button is always shown (at least for games with Free + donation):

  • sometimes you unlocked a few items by paying up t a certain threshold, but didn't unlock all items
  • sometimes you want to make a donation to the dev again even with no reward
  • sometimes you want to gift an extra copy to a friend, so you must buy it again

In fact, other game stores are similar but often they have the See in library button near the download button with may say "owned" instead, with an extra button to buy it again for a friend.

In this case everything's here, it's just scattered over the page.

Describe the solution you'd like
We could have a reminder near the Download button which would basically be the banner content repeated just so user doesn't miss it (also useful if they forgot they already paid for a game!).

Describe alternatives you've considered
Or the top banner could be sticky (stays visible at any time even if you scroll) but that may bother some people.

Additional context
I noticed this for a free game with donations + price threshold but it seems to be the same for premium games.
