Comment on Popular stress-testing app OCCT is coming to Steam and includes a special build for Steam Deck

  I can download a free game

  Yes, free, not “optional purchase”. If the game is listed for free there is no mechanism to purchase it on Steam. How’s that hard to grasp?

    You’re a bit slow my dude.

    This software is free to download, but includes an additional optional purchase.

    Guess what, old school RuneScape on Steam is also free to download, but includes an additional optional purchase.

      You keep saying this but you’re not explaining how that works. Because nothing else in Steam, to my knowledge, works that way. And now you’re being rude for reasons I don’t understand so I’m going to block you now. Good day.

        See this software on Steam.
        It’s free, but if you scroll down the Store page you’ll see the “Downloadable Content For This Software”, and you’ll see there’s paid DLC you can buy for it.

        That’s how it works, Steam supports this for games and software for a while now.
