i heard Microsoft wants to take away our lord and savior gaben. There's a rumor flying around that Microsoft wants to start buying some of the big gaming companies like ea, valve, and the pubg peeps.

    This could be a good thing. Because finally we might get Half Life 3!

     

    On a more serious note, I am actually not opposed to this. I can't say I have any real problem with Microsoft games or the company as a whole. I do like Valve/Steam but they do have issues, like their support doesn't even exist. EA we all know the problem with, and PUBG is just a game. I think it would be awesome to have a massive company behind steam others to really get them going.

    I have a fear that if Microsoft were to buy Valve it would become a paid service

    I don't think so. It has too many users, the backlash they would get would be insane if they charged for it.

    Plus they wouldn't need to with the fees Steam charges to sell games. Plus they don't need to compensate for the major loss of money they have when they sell Xboxs.

    And perhaps more crossplay?
