If you guys aren't buying steam games constantly that you'll never play then do you even deserve the Steam Deck?

registered, and it sets you a reminder email before it starts to watch on steam

ultimately I'll be watching on my tv but I can just run the stream off my laptop too

I didn't even realize steam streamed stuff like that

There are plenty of games on Steam you dont need a gaming PC to play.

We will be streaming The Game Awards at https://steam.tv - winner will be announced in chat as each drawing takes place.

So yes, you do need to be paying attention to it.

Nah, it says below that that theyll also be notified by email.

You do have to be a viewer, but its not a QTE or anything

Since it's not listed anywhere here and I had to go look it up, The Game Awards are being aired next Thursday, the 8th, at 7:30 Eastern US.

I can't actually watch during that time because I'll be working. =x

Same. I was like "That's a bit tight. Gotta buy some random $2 thing." and then oh yeah, I definitely bought a game from Steam in that entire year. Except I also didn't notice it had passed.

This sounds like such a great idea to have a bunch of people sitting on their stream with it muted and not paying any attention to it whatsoever.

Any emulator, most Steam games, streaming xcloud or remote playing my PS5, its my primary game device right now.

I mean, they probably only care about the numbers anyway so they can hype them up.

"Over 500k people watched the Game Awards this year" or whatever

it was 85 million last year so 500k would be pretty bad
