    Assuming there will never be any updates, 3 downloads is what regular gamer can do. First computer, second(friend’s) computer and reinstallation on first computer.

      $0.025 per GB is the most expensive option on S3 I could find rounded up. It would be absolutely insane if Steam were paying those prices when they have their own servers. I also used 100GB game size as a large number, and $30 as a small price tag (for an 100GB game).

      I was trying to be charitable with the numbers and it still came out pretty positive

        What is cheapest and at what speed?

        I also used 100GB game size as a large number, and $30 as a small price tag (for an 100GB game).

        I get it, but then there are all those heavy f2p games like War Thunder, from which Steam doesn’t get anything.
