Please microsoft buy steam.

[nun]

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.

I'd rather Elon Musk buy STEAM then to have anyone else buy STEAM...

I'd also rather Elon Musk not incorporate his X based AI into STEAM,
i'd rather keep the AI out of it...

I don't think even Elon Musk could save STEAM, to be honest, though...

Elon has saved Twitter, but his time away & his AI use without him there,
sorta allows the Platform to dwindle into crap ville...

Anotherwords, Elon's Twitter doesn't really work without him & his appearance...
He can't be there every Day, & all the time...

Sooooo? I don't know, ~_~

I could not think of anyone else to save STEAM, though...

You say, he saved X?
And would do the same to Y?

Better not......

Microsoft will run steam into the ground.

why should valve sell.. it's making tons of money

Microsoft alllready has his own store. They are rivals shouldn't this considered hostile take over if it happends.

You forgot about Half-Life: Alyx, which probably is the best VR game right now imo and CS2 released this year too (I don't play Counter, but this is fact).

There's no need to buy it, Steam is not remotely close to be in problems and it's a good game distributor. Can we keep it like that?

EDIT: And, as the comment above says, there's already a MS store which distribute its games (if you can't get them here or in GoG, of course).

Do people really want another subscription ontop of all the other stuff microsoft is offering?
Hell NO!

Steam should stay as it is and its growing, a good easily navagatable platform that has multiple smaller developers on it and they seem to be supported, hell there are good games on here made by single or a hand full of people! Microsoft just does not do that!

He’s trolling! Microsoft Gaming is a failure, they have destroyed every brand, studio or publisher they have bought. They would destroy steam as well. What games have Microsoft brought fourth recently? The day Microsoft buys Steam is the day I no longer use Steam or game on a pc.

I'm excited to see what new pricing Game Pass will have when CoD joins the lineup this year. June 9th can't come quick enough.

Awesome thread. Glad to see it still going (though being it's old they'll likely close it). .

Yes OP, as was said, i would think a "partnership" between Phil and Mr Newell in the next console make, would be a great idea.

Not to mention, i heard a rumor, that Mr Newell made an agreement with MS, that when he parted, he agreed that any issue that Valve encountered, MS would get the first option to buy the company. Don't know how true that is. And so if Mr Newell passes, MS will buy the compnay.

Source for that rumor as I heard a rumor which states that rumor is made up.

What i've heard is that Gabe is making offers to Mr Spencer to buy out Xbox's gaming division which has been failing and Mr Spencer has been binge drinking and seeing psychics to try to find a way out of selling.

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
