Steam Next Fest

[Worldzworstgamer2025]

I just wanted to say thanks to Steam for having this. Promoting game companies to put out demos is a good thing for the consumer. I already have downloaded one game and saw many more I am interested in. If not for this even with demos many of these games I would never have taken a hard look at. Thanks again Steam and best wishes to the developers with their projects.

Nobody enjoying this? I was interested to hear what others are trying. I guess many are just wasting their time in New World either staying queues till they die or trying to understand why they can't swim.

I never heard of whatever you're taking about.

It is the event going on with Steam. Developers are showing off games in development by giving us demos to try. I have loads of fun with it tonight going through 6 games and just added one to my wish list.

i liked the name Steam Game Festival rather than Next Fest.

No matter what it is called I hope they do this again in the future.

Tbh i like the idea of the fest and that there are so many demos and stuff, but the overview is confusing, seriously.

Why is there no simple list to see all newly available demos?

and the LIVE broadcast thing in reality feels like 90% pre recorded videos... They could have handled that better.

That there's a button like "click here to see all new exclusive demos" without all the bling bling so we can see a simple and clean overview of them.

And that they really only show broadcasts that ARE live, not all the recorded things. If i wanna watch old videos i can just go to youtube instead.

I found a few games i like there, but it would probably be much more if the interface wouldn't be such a mess.

They have been doing it since last year. There is three games festival in a year so you rest assured they will continue since it is successful.

Personally I don't like any of the games being showcased, they seem boring. Just my opinion.

Then try the demo's.

I'll download the demos for games I have wishlisted somewhere this week. Will be nice to try them out.

I just wish they had a top sellers button for this event to see whats popular at the moment.

The only games in the event that you can buy are pre-purchase and most don't fall into that category. The demos are for games that still have to be released.

How the heck do you actually navigate to the thing from the steam store
Do I really have to go into the forums just so I can find a link to it

They had a banner at the top of the store page initially, but for some reason 2 hours ago they decided to replace that with a random publisher sale banner. *roll eyes*

The Next Fest banner still shows up on the store page of participating games though, so if you have any of them installed you can just navigate to their store page and click on the banner. Otherwise just look up a random Next demo, for example Hometopia.

Thanks, Amarinth. I was puzzled by the disappearance of the banner. Still have games to try out!

Steam ...

Why you be like that?

Geeze leave the darn banner up since the event is still going.
