How to download Steam on your PC or Mac, and gain access to the internet's largest collection of games. In 2003, the Washington-based game studio Valve launched Steam, a digital distribution service dedicated to providing updates for their own in- house titles. Since then, Steam has become the premier platform for the PC — and, to a lesser degree, Mac — gaming community. With a slew of first-party and third-party titles available, Steam is one of the most popular ways for gamers to experience their favorite games. Additionally, much of Steam's success comes from the fact that the platform often offers various sales on old and new titles, allowing users to purchase their favorite games at a discounted rate.

    HOW TO PLAY WITH MAPS by Ross Thorn Department of Geography, UW-Madison A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science (Geographic Information Science and Cartography) at the UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN–MADISON 2018 i Acknowledgments I have so many people to thank for helping me through the process of creating this thesis and my personal development throughout my time at UW-Madison. First, I would like to thank my advisor Rob Roth for supporting this seemingly crazy project and working with me despite his limited knowledge about games released after 1998. Your words of encouragement and excitement for this project were invaluable to keep this project moving. I also want to thank my ‘second advisor’ Ian Muehlenhaus for not only offering expert guidance in cartography, but also your addictive passion for games and their connection to maps. You provided endless inspiration and this research would not have been possible without your support and enthusiasm. I would like to thank Leanne Abraham and Alicia Iverson for reveling and commiserating with me through the ups and downs of grad school. You both are incredibly inspirational to me and I look forward to seeing the amazing things that you will undoubtedly accomplish in life. I would also like to thank Meghan Kelly, Nick Lally, Daniel Huffman, and Tanya Buckingham for creating a supportive and fun atmosphere in the Cartography Lab. I could not have succeeded without your encouragement and reminder that we all deserve to be here even if we feel inadequate. You made my academic experience unforgettable and I love you all.

    Abstract This thesis investigates the Games as a Service business model and its relationship to the videogame industry through a subjectivist ontology and interpretive epistemology. Observation and qualitative interviews are at the centre of an inductive research approach. The study first identifies some success factors, revenue models and risk. These include but are not limited to; commodification of virtual worlds and user engagement, microtransactions and ethical and political concerns regarding randomisation mechanics akin to gambling found in some GaaS games. Subsequent to the identification of these factors, two industry leading organisations (Valve and Epic Games) and their flagship games (Counter-Strike and Fortnite) are explored and compared in detail, from a business and user engagement perspective. Subsequently, recommendations for further research directions are given.
