minus-squarepinball_wizard@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up3·2 months agoYes. If steam shuts down, I’ll probably just stop purchasing games entirely.
minus-squareGrindingGears@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up3·2 months agoMaybe I’m a dying breed, but I don’t feel like own something if I can’t put my hands on it physically. I view Steam as leasing and not ownership. I’ve bought a fair amount of stuff on it over the years, but I don’t feel like I actually own it.
minus-squaredefinitemaybe@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down1·2 months agoIs Prime Gaming going to be affected? My read is that this is shutting down all free access to Luna game streaming. I don’t read anything that implies this will affect game codes.
minus-squareSylvartas@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoIf anything this might make prime gaming better again, as it’ll start giving codes for actual stores again instead of the “play free on luna” bs.
