So everyone with a steamdeck gets gamepass, win win!

 

[bentanchorbolt]

Ideally MS will do this and then Valve will be the driving force behind Microsoft's VR solution.

 

[M1chl]

Most people with steam deck probably going to install Windows anyway, so meh. I think it would be nice, however not sure how would that fall inside MS's plan.

 

[Husky]

I might actually try out GamePass if it comes to Steam. Not touching anything tied to the Windows Store or using UWP apps.

Let's get this man to the dungeon. You want to burn of the forums for us. Cooldown little bit Satan.

 

[Syphon Filter]

that makes no sense, it's already on pc.

 

[catvonpee]

You can load windows on steam deck and do this yourself.

Their client on windows is a mess. Steam is just simply better.

Steam client is bloated too to be fair.

 

[Spitfire098]

Damn you have any more oringal ideas? /s

 

[Corgi1985]

It wouldn't be fair to the competition. The best deal in gaming meets the future of gaming? Madness

Does windows allow for games to suspend and resume? That’s a core part of gaming on the go.

 

[CitizenZ]

its a given, this has been in the planning for years. You need to go back to around 2015 and dig up some articles where the foundation was being laid out for MS to put games on Steam. As I have said numerous times they didnt create a list of services on Steam just for EA Play.

They take 30% of every sub?

 

[Shmunter]

They take 30% of every sub?

I see, so only subs through steam would work, not Xbox etc.

 

[Bernd Lauert]

Yeah, and discounts and other perks would also only work on Steam. If you have Gamepass on Steam, you don't get a discount on Xbox. At least that's how EA Play works.

 

[packy34]

I don't think the math quite works for MS if they have to give up a percentage. I would love to have it on Steam too but I don't see it happening.

 

[THE DUCK]

I would be happy with it added, or at the very least some special version of gamepass that's mobile friendly and easy to launch in the Steam os.

 

[MasterDerico]

 

[CapnAmaricrunch]

I want to use steam os(deck) and have that nice console experience, so just release it for steam os as an app, nah I aint going windows, im willing to bet the problems will arise, and the console experience will be gone.

You bumped a months old thread (of which you created and had the last post) for this one liner?

 

[CapnAmaricrunch]

yep

 

[Slicker than your average]

I Would use pc gamepass more if it was completely integrated into steam. The awful xbox app and zero modding on pc just doesn't cut it.

 

[Kenpachii]

I said the same thing before, it needs to move to steam i have no interest dealing with windows store.

 

[CapnAmaricrunch]

THANK YOU

Aso because the Xbox app sucks.

For a software company, Microsoft sure does suck when it comes to their non-Office/OS apps/software.
