Please microsoft buy steam.
Steam has never made a relevant game again without being associated with a product of its own.

If Microsoft bought valve, steam would be a wonderful place. It would add a game pass with multiple games, continue the release of old games, remove cancer from the loot-boxes of the steam market (purely digital garbage), fix the hackers in games.

Please steam is dying.

Considering you're a nun, that's blasphemy.

And why would MS want to have a 'Steam pass' competing with their Game Pass?

A multiple Trillion dollar company can't afford a single digit multi Billion dollar company?

Considering Microsoft paid 2.5 billion for Mojang, i suspect the value of Steam and Valve is quite a lot larger than that.

No we don't need Microsoft and their eco system. they will dominates the gaming community and they gonna shut down everything related to Linux too means simply get xbox or install windows. but there target actually was Nintendo and not Valve.

i mostly dislike ms on gaming for they would absolutly push a sub like xbox live gold on steam users if they bought it to play online

Well to be fair the sale price for Valve/Steam would be far more then 1 year's revenue, but yeah Microsoft could afford basically any reasonable price
