    I haven’t seen an interactive event on Steam for, like, a decade. Unless they’re counting sales as interactive events. 🤔

    They used to have, like, gamified events where you’re earning things (like maybe trading cards or badges or other Steam profile items) by playing a small little browser game inside the store page. Those were always fun.

      They kinda died along side the flash deals. I miss the crazy sales, but I understand why they removed them.

      The Next Fests might count. They kind of fill the role that something like PAX does, encouraging you to try out demos.

        Yeah I’d say that counts. It definitely feels like a community event to me and doesn’t cost money to participate

      one example of a steam interactive event was when valve was actively giving viewers who were watching the game awards through steam a raffle to get a free steam deck
