You misspelled the title LOL

I doubt Steam will ever introduce something like Game Pass. It has actively made sales for devs on Xbox worse and it ultimately led to Xbox losing money in the very long run. Steam sales already save you a ton of money compared to game purchases on other platforms with events like the seasonal sales and Next Fests.

I think the last thing a Steam user needs is an even bigger backlog.

It's a valid thought though.

lol

i'd rather buy games than have another sub, also steam is a store, the devs and publishers sell their games on the store, a sub would destroy the ecosystem.

Note that with the recent Game pass price increases its obvious Xbox is now past the 'benevolent dictator' stage and is now in the 'actual dictator' stage of the subscription. Aka game pass was fine when it was cheap. But now that usefulness has been replaced because the subscription service obvisouly doesn't make enough money to offset these costs. And with no more 0% interest rates, you cannot simply borrow free money hoping you will 'make money later' . They are in the 'make money now' stages.

Steam already fully supports a gamepass style subscription such as the one EA games offers. Its up to developers to set it up and price it. There are too many games on steam so a game pass will never cover everything

Maybe Spencer will go a step beyond his tweet one day...

I'm older and have grown-up money, so I have way more games than time to play them. I have a hard enough time owning more games than I could probably play in my lifetime. A subscription service would only make this worse, especially since I'll feel like I'm now on the clock. It's play them now, or lose them forever. At least with the games I have, the only pressure I feel to play them in a timely manner is my own mortality.

A Steam gamepass would be ELITE. I said bye to Xbox gamepass because of the stupid price.

Would be great

Given the announcement of the Steam Machine, one thing that would be good to attract more console gamers would be a Game Pass; this would greatly help the community and leave them very satisfied.

Valve hasn't been waiting on the Steam Machine to try and copy gamepass. They're just not interested.

And why are so many people convinced a prebuilt pc in a small form factor (which is hardly a new cpncept) with linux installed has a serious focus on attracting console gsmers?

Do people do this with every oem's gaming pc's? Like who's running this reality distortion field?
