Can we get more Free games (better ones)
I think we all spend enough, you should maybe throw us a bone and give us half decent games for free more often. Just a idea I am not saying you have to or anything.. I would buy into some 60$ + games if I got a few 30$ games for free and not some stick game.. Thanks for reading this.

yea they can but i don't think they should as the only reason epic does it cause nobody buys from epic store and they're bleeding money

they're trying to "buy" customers and it's not a sustainable business model
Sure, agreed. Still doesn't change that people should stop with the false "Valve can't" rhetoric. Which is a rhetoric that gets thrown around a lot around here.

Will do, was trying to hear from Steam/valve whatever on the situation.. I am fine either way.
Valve doesn't post in the forums, these are user-to-user forums.

Ask the game developers to make more free games.

And free for a limited time games are offered by the devs/pubs of said games, not Valve.

Steam should be giving free games out of the 30% cut ,they get because of customers, give some back. Developers already lose 30% supporting steam as a store letting steam sell game for them, they don't even need to do that, steam isn't selling the game, the quality of the games sell it.

I agree be less entitled steam,and be less greedy

If you want free games, search for games that cost $0. There's tons of them.

Do YOU give away free stuff just because you can afford it?

Aside from not understanding how Steam works, the argument that, "if you give us free stuff we'll buy more", hasn't ever turned out true. Stores generally aren't worried over that demographic, they aren't that valuable.

Many other platforms do it, they don't own the games either.. Just throwing that out there.. I just asked, I am not demanding.. Why all the hate ?
