30 days isn't a long enough window. I'll keep using steamdb for this

Yeah I like at least a year, but multi year is ideal

So a less useful IsThereAnyDeal

Integration into the platform sounds more useful.

Will the platform give me the price of the other store who sell steam key ? Probably not IsThereAnyDeal does

Why would it, though?

HeadfullofSoup@kbin.earth · 7 pts · 128d (4 replies)

It don’t have to but saying that a platform giving only 1 price is more useful than a website giving all of them is kind of stupid

The general public very likely does not check isthereanydeal before buying a game. So this will be more useful to a lot of people that aren't you or me.

Maybe i do over estimate how much people know about IsThereAnyDeal

I have this feature for at least 6 months already, great stuff.
They probably had partial rollout for testing
