NEW YORK-(BUSINESS WIRE)-Qubo Channel kicks off its fall 2010 schedule with all-new animated and live action series including several U.S. Iconic Series “The Magic School Bus®” Headlines Qubo Schedule along with Several All-New Animated and Live Action Series, Including US Premieres of “The Mysteries of Alfred Hedgehog” and “Pearlie” Valve is just one company in an industry that's dropping support for a 14 year old OS.Qubo Channel Kicks off Fall 2010 Lineup Starting Monday, September 27 Lots of games and services are in the process of ending support. Epic is dropping Win7 support from Fortnite and their client won't be far behind. MS Game Pass/Xbox app already doesn't support Windows 7. Oh, it's more than that in reality and your argument is just poor? Imagine that.Īlso keep in mind this isn't just Steam, Windows 7 support ending is happening industry wide. Ignoring reality and trying to argue baseless user perceptions to argue how Steam should operate is not an argument that has ever worked in the past, just fyi.Īnd Steam was just a neat little tool you say? Then stop using the tool. It doesn't dictate how digital distributors operate today, or what users have decided to use and agree to. Then stick with games on physical disks that have no requirements to use online services. This WIndows 7 to-boggle seems to be in the sweet spot where people don't have the game outside of steam. steam was just a neat little tool to organize your library. So if you have some old machine like that and the game disk/code you wouldn't need steam. Originally posted by Qubo Night Owl:well PC gamers back then had disk drives and physical copies of their games. I'd wager for a pretty decent drop around Black Friday. And by the time January 2024 comes it'll be closer to 0.5% as lots of people will upgrade over the next few months. I expect the majority of people running dated systems with a 14 year old OS aren't Valve's prime demographic, they're not high value customers, and they're in a tiny minority that makes up ~1.5% of users are declining. And it's not like upgrades and updates aren't a core part of PC gaming.Īnd let's be real honest here. You can use the same OS for decades if you want, but there's consequences for not upgrading. ![]() And they're just kidding themselves if they thing Windows 7/8 is special. And they'd have to ignore end of support for Win95/98/ME/Win2k/XP and Vista to believe it. Valve has shown no interest in doing it this time around, they likely would have mentioned it when announcing end of support.Īnd regardless of what you claim people thought, it's their own invention. ![]() ![]() Valve didn't create legacy clients then, and people made all the exact same arguments. ![]() And those who do use it aren't exactly high paying or core demographic customers. You're being a little "optimistic" if you think Valve is interested in creating a legacy client for an OS hardly anyone uses. Apparently it's just a chuck E cheese video game booth and you only can play until your ticket is used up. a library that you can access as you please. They thought the steam library was more of you know.
