I avoided Steam for quite a few years, and I can't remember why I finally gave in and created an account. Since then I've spent $548.39
i just checked
$1,824.87
I remember I bought my first game via Steam in 2012, and that was Portal 2 - I'd already had a Steam account since I got the Orange Box around 2007-ish I think, but never touched it as I didn't trust it. Now, apparantly, I have spent $375.09/£271.53, which is more than I thought I would have.
Over all the years, I have spent $502... an average of £2.60 per game. Sounds pretty cheap, overall.
That's not even enough to buy a graphics card, these days!

£80.23 since may 2012.
Tanner an'a bob. Nowadays I go down the ole GOG store n'pay n'more than 'apenny.
I haven't brought anything for myself from Steam since August 2017. This as I came to the conclusion I will not support rent-a-games any more. All games since have been purchased from GoG. Prior to that between December 2010 to August 2017 is spent about £540 on 117 games. So about £4.60 a game.
For note, I actually joined Steam in November 2004. This having brought (externally to Steam), the Half-Life 2 Retail pack. Another four games in my collection were brought in the same manner prior to the first game I brought through Steam in 2010.

Pretty sure it's nothing, haven't even got steam installed at the moment...
Most of the games I've been playing of late have been 'free to play' and I try to get them direct from them rather than via steam etc. I do have a couple of 'free' games from epic/ubisoft but can't say I've spent much there either.
Since 29 Apr 2006 (Half-Life 2 Retail Collectors)
TotalSpend $1,326.14
Quite frugal considering that's over 15 years, less than my RTX 3090 cost me (doubt that'll last 15 years!).
Erm, nothing!
Mine says $693.75 most of my games are from Humblebundle and gmg.
I have 316 games on Steam for a total of $936.56 but many of them have been from the likes of Humble Bundle and others. Not sure if add-ons are included in the games total either.
