Cloud Gaming Services
A cloud gaming service would be a good idea, as Steam Deck owners will have a larger library of games. It's a very good option. The platform is quite rich in games and is also very popular among gamers. A gaming service is good for those who can't afford good PCs.
I really hope this service is added!!
Thank you for your understanding!!
(Um serviços de jogos na nuvem seria uma boa ideia, pois aquele que possui o steam deck terá uma biblioteca maior de jogos, é uma opção muito boa. Já que a plataforma é bastante rica em jogos, além de ser muita amada pelo público dos gamers. Um serviço de jogos é bom para aqueles que nao possuem condições de terem pc bons.
Eu espero muito que seja adicionada esse serviço!!
Agradeço a compreenção!!)

An expensive infratricture for people who can't afford a hobby might not be the slam dunk idea you think it is.

Also being willing to spend Valve's money because you don't wanna spend your money is quaint and all, but I'm not sure Valve is on board.

Finally cloud gaming options exist and they make so much money Valve's avarice should drive them to do it? Or... maybe cloud gaming just isn't quite there. Either way Valve has a lot of experience and expertise to make an informed decision. So far doesn't seem like Valve is interested.

but it is an Nvidia service and this service is bad because it is not monthly, a monthly subscription would be very good

It's Ge Force Now they're partnered with.

And say for Xbox, now even the basic core service can stream games. And so i don't even have to upgrade to the new Xbox to buy and play next gen games.

I think it's awesome :steamhappy:

in Germany, GeForce Now exists as a monthly plan.

As for your initial idea:
It takes the size of Amazon, Microsoft or nVidia to provide cloud gaming in a manner that is serviceable to the masses.

Considering the subscription prices (and it still having queues) and how aggressive nVidia now forces ads on the free plans, it will never be financially viable or even financially feasible for Valve to provide a streaming platform.

Even Google wasn't able to run such a platform with acceptable profit and had to shut it down.

So if they have the service you need but the pricing is not right, talk to nvidia about monthly.

There are plenty of other services that have computers you can remote desktop into and play video games on. To the point where I had to add a FAQ entry to my game's website saying "yes, you can let people play the game as long as you get the files from Steam and they play on their own account" because so many kept emailing me to ask for permission.

and for Brazil, it could be monthly too, right? But Steam doesn't want to do that, talk to the GeForce Now company, because the gaming platform that we Brazilians like doubled the price and and geforce is the only one, but there is no monthly subscription which makes things complicated for us.
