Many Free Game With a Paid Subscription

[Ye]

I think Steam should have a paid subscription option and with that comes many top games for free as long as you are subscribed.

This is good for many who want to play a bunch of games but not longterm and will be a great way to attract more costumers like me.

Also, people subscribed won't have to worry about not being able to refund games that come with the plan and will therefore lower Steam game return tickets helping out support.

I think people should use the search feature and read all the other threads about this topic and realize that there is nothing in it for the developers of the games or even Valve because they would lose far more money then they get now. Valve doesn't own 99.99% of the games on Steam.


Why by a game for 60 bucks when I can get access to 100 or 1000 games for 10 bucks.

In 1 month you can finish off 4 to 5 30 hour games easily so when the split of 10 bucks comes in they get pennies instead of many dollars.


All this and more is covered in all the other threads about this topic. Its a bad idea the first 100+ times its been suggested, its a bad idea now, it will be a bad idea the next 1000+ times its suggested.

This is only good for you, but it wouldn't be for long once game developers/publishers/ip owners started removing their games from Steam and going to other platforms that don't give away their games for nothing.

Want a subscribe of games you can keep, go get the humble monthly bundle. At least some of that money goes to charity.

And as soon as you can figure out a payout scheme and pricing that the dev/pubs would sign on to...Valve will start considering it.

Don't worry...subscription based service is the future...in fact, it's already happening.

Not what Brian means. Valve won't do a Steam subscription akin EA Play or Gamepass themselves, they'll just provide the framework for other parties to do so.

Too much of a headache for them to. But any developer or group of dev/pubs can do it through Steam.
