For me the answer is 847 USD over 14 years …
$1219.04 since 2011 (I didn’t bother with Steam until Skyrim released and I was living somewhere without a local game store)
If they take Arc Raiders away from me, I’m going to lose my mind.
Steam reports my total spend to be $4,077.17 Steam Calculator reports $4,503 when bought at lowest prices and $7,250 in today’s prices. The calculator says I have 1,463 games, steam says 1,345 and my steam profile lists 1,349
$0.00.
I never buy games on Steam. If you buy it, and can’t keep it, you don’t own it.
I have Steam for a handful of free titles. The rest I buy from GOG.
That is wise. I wish they had more than the old games and the handful newer ones. Their moment will come when gaben signs off and steam will enshittify
€100k more or less. I boycotted steam until left4dead2. Then I caved in. 50k was for the level though. And yes I know how stupid that is. The rest was games bought on steam. Then there might be more through other sources that provide steam-keys.
But it Wouldn’t be really lost. At least not the games I already downloaded. Steam’s DRM is trivial, so I would have at least those left.
Also, nothing to worry until gaben signs off. I predict it will then be turned into the usual us-american enshittification-craphole everything else is.
696 games at $4142 over 22.5 years
FYI, you can get total spent by going to Help > Steam Support > My Account > Data Related to Your Steam Account > External Funds Used.
according to steamDB 1000€ at lowest prices 1700€ at today’s prices over 16 years
kind of expected more
I’ve had an account for nineteen years. I think some of the stuff I’ve got is irreplaceable due to its obscurity.
£600 in 21 years apparently and most of that is from the first 10 years too. It’s not my go-to store anymore.
I have FTL and Into The Breach installed so even if the rest of my library vanishes I think I’ll be alright.
$1320.15 USD or like £988 GBP over the last 7 years damn-
That’s like £150 a year-
Bet most are unplayed too because I rack up hundreds of hours on a couple of games then forget about the rest oops. I gotta start going through my backlog.
Edit: according to https://help.steampowered.com/en/accountdata/AccountSpend
According to Steam, ive spent $1440 dollars over 13 years.
Thing is, I have 930 games.
And while I pride myself on only buying during sales or other massive discounts, an average of $1.54 per game seems extremely low to me.
Nor does the fact that even when factoring in my supposed savings, i would have spend only 4.76 per game if not on sale especially since I have a fair number of AAA games on the account.
So im not sure steam is tracking me accurately.
$0 because if steam deletes my library I’m going to pirate it back with 0 remorse
the money is already lost. if that happened i would pirate whatever i want to download again.
