Hey guys.
For a long time (say, a month or two) I've wanted to get CS:S + GMod10 but I've heard a lot of negative things about Steam - compatibility, stability, expensiveness - and if these complaints are true (which I have to believe they are) then it seems most of Valve's games would be very difficult to play.
I would like to hear first-hand, from Steam users (instead of vague "developer reviews," which are just ads) just how useful or difficult to use it really is, and how this affects the games themselves.
How expensive can having an account get?
How often does it crash?
How often does it just not work?
Is it frustrating? Confusing? Difficult?
Does it reduce the fun-ness of games?
Just wondering; I don't expect to get CS:S any time soon (I've had absolutely no luck at all getting a job).
Thanks in advance.
