1. Steam Sales
2. Recommendations for other games that you would like so it helps Indies, AA’s find their intended audience than it being random.
3. The amount of customization options when it comes to controllers, game options, graphical settings etc. To where you can prioritize high framerate or graphics, maybe even the best of both if you know what you are doing and you have the hardware.
4. Workshop for mods or allowing Mod support so everyone can add onto the game for fun.
5. Adult content(which you do have to turn on in the options settings) which Valve generally approves of for the most part, except rare times when it’s a bad reviewer on the panel who has a personal vendetta. This is a huge reason due to Sony’s censorship it has pushed users onto this platform.
6. Online is free(which might be why Japanese users and American users are shifting overall) plus talking to your friends is seamless even on the App and even Remote Play is good as well.
7. Spending points for Emotes, Wallpaper backgrounds, Avatars etc including a cool intro screen that can be purchased as well.

Other than the obvious benefits of being able to stream, and edit videos among other things. This is PC’s hidden strength for the user to customize their experience however they would like to have it, than to have things being forced onto them. When someone experiences a unique thing like this it is difficult to not tell your friends about it, and more people to get on board as a whole. It’s why Japanese users are flocking to it, and why Consoles have been falling with the exception of Nintendo who focuses on gaming first and understands the market because it needs to. Both Valve and Nintendo have no censorship policies and rarely enforce rules if ever. They value creative expression, especially with Fanservice titles. Because they sell and they are reaping the rewards of that from the users.

I feel that Japanese companies when they expand onto PC need to be absolutely careful in the sense that it should be passion projects, things they really would like to make, not just Gacha, Graphics, and generic stuff you would have on consoles, that you are just cashing in on trends only. But are unique experiences, that come from the heart. Whether it’s Dungeon Crawlers(DRPG), Schmups(STG), Simulation Life Games,RTS, Open World Survivalcraft, Fighting Games, Visual Novels, Action Games, Fanservice, Strategy Games, VTuber, Idolmaster titles etc people will buy it and will see that you are trying to push the industry forward rather than just to fit in a small hole like everything else, it’s authentic. It’s like the PS2 era or Japan Studios, that is what people are yearning for and missing dearly. It’s why Palworld and Helldivers 2 are very successful on PC than Consoles.

Ending off I do believe Japan will pull it off in Video Games and return back to greatness again than the delay in 2017 with Sony. It will help push things back to where it should be.
