Knight Barida Posted November 7 Share Posted November 7 There are a couple of benefits that comes with using the Steam Game Recording. The first is that it works for all users. Secondly, you can now take video snapshots especially when the game is over and that is one side of it that I like since I can do so when the game is over. Is this a feature you will be using often?

Shagger Posted November 7 Share Posted November 7 To describe this in one word, pointless. Not only has this been available on console since the launch of the PS4 and Xbox One, third party software for this purpose has been available for this purpose on PC for, if anything, even longer. This feature is actually built into the support software for graphics cards these days. I know that because I've used it. That software also has the advantage of being available to use with software not launched through Steam, so why would anybody use this? I'm not dissing the software not it's features, I'm sure it works fine, but anyone even remotely serious about recording gameplay on PC would be either using a capture card or premium third-party software and that's not likely to change. killamch89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted November 7 Share Posted November 7 I'm going to have to agree with @Shagger here. It's nice that they have but it's been available for years from different sources. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted November 9 Share Posted November 9 It’s been available for longer than people think. Back to the days of SNES and Sega Genesis. I know this for a fact, because I used to do it. I would hook up my system through my VCR, and record my gameplay. I would watch it to see what I had missed on certain games. I even got to selling the tapes, because people thought of it as a mostly silent movie. Others just liked watching the “pros” play the same as today. Only difference is that there was no YouTube back then. killamch89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why it took Steam so long to bring it to their platform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
