    Good point. Steam provides a lot of the same multiplayer services and match making and they’ve never cost me a penny.

        For a lot of games, yes. They provide the infrastructure for communication and connection.

        Its why you can, for example, send an invite in AOE via the in-game system or the steam system.

        Its why so many games show your steam name and avatar in the multiplayer menus.

        You surprised to hear this?
