The cost to own everything in Steam

[Demon_Skeith]

Chenggang Wang has a lil’ site called Buy All Steam Games, and it continually tracks the platform and finds out what the cumulative worth of the entire shopfront is.

Currently it will cost you roughly $538,000 USD to own everything on Steam to date. Got the money to do so?

Would be nice if they let you filter this according to the genres that interest you.

That's just insane who would drop 500k on video games?

Only 500K ? I thought it would be far more then that LOL Epic offers more then that come on in the long term. Wonder how much to buy steam and run it as a owner or a founder

I thought it would be more money like millions because Steam has so many games from many game publishers.

Here's a short article I just found on PC gamer (not the latest stat, but from January 2019), where explained that Steam has around 30K games and this doesn't include the DLC's (which were at around 21K that time).

Plus the additional 15K games that were released in 2019+2020 they are approx. at 45K games currently (without DLC's) and the numbers of games released on Steam are still growing every year. If we take a closer look we can easily see that the games are valued at around $10 in average, so I think Chenggang Wang isn't counting the DLC's into those numbers.

But, anyways still impressive numbers.

Thanks for the info, either way most of it is a waste of money.
