You can already kinda do this in a roundabout way

Yeah, I've heard of the Gamehub app, looks cool.

I just know the compatibility is still limited. When arm-based android devices can work as well as proton on linux, where 90% of the Steam library is verified to work, and you have the Steam app just one tap download/install games...that will make the gaming market pretty interesting.

Consoles where becoming more and more like PCs. It was a matter of time until someone cut the middle man.

Can PC guys shut the fuck up. No one likes you.

I'm too poor for a PC

I wish they would shut the fuck up too

I have a high end PC. Does this mean we can't be friends?

Only games missing are Nintendo ones, so yeah, pretty much

Nah plenty still missing even excluding Nintendo. Astrobot, DS2, GT7, GoY, soon GTA6
And this is just PC, not "steam" that the OP is asking about specifically.

It already is.

I use almost nothing but steam on pc. I consider it it's own platform. The features like bpm, steam input, and proton integration are above and beyond. And shopping on it is waaayyy more fun than anywhere else. With the way the store works with tags and embedded previews and mouse-overs is so slick. Then there's the key economy. So good and it's easy to amass many, many games.

Shopping on the playstation is painful, in comparison. It's usable, though. The switch really isn't. It's pointless to try to shop on it. As a result, I basically don't buy switch games unless it's a big physical release I can buy at a real store.

It's been like this for the entire gen. We deffo had users hoping it wasn't true, trying to find any evidence they can to show PC in decline and not exceeding consoles

We know what the reality is. It is the biggest platform by a large amount and that's why pubs simply can not refuse it.

Such an amazing comeback for pc gaming.

2026 though...yikes. I can't see how it can grow again because of this ram mess.
