Steam ends universal Daily Deals, sparks debate
Original: No more (universal) Daily Deals on Steam... is that good?
Valve has done away with universal Daily Deals on Steam, the long-running promotions that discounted a game store-wide for a single day. Industry analysis, notably from GameDiscoverCo, is asking what the change means for developers and discovery, with opinion split on whether targeted or personalised offers will serve players and smaller studios better than the old one-size-fits-all discounts.
Why now: Steam is a dominant PC storefront, so any change to its discount mechanics affects developers' sales strategies and players' habits.
