Hey everyone!

As part of my dissertation which investigates Steam users' engagement towards Steam, I'm conducting a primary research regarding the topic.
I would greatly appreciate if you could spare a few minutes to complete this survey. It takes approximately 10 minutes to complete. I will not use the seperate answers, only the answers as a whole.

To motivate participation, I added 4 giveaway links to the end of the survey (don't rush through the survey though).
The games are the following:

  1. Yesterday (key)
  2. Space Run (key)
  3. Rise of the Argonauts (key)
  4. Tomb Raider GOTY Edition (Steam gift)

Also, those who bump this thread will be put on my whitelist. I have also made a giveaway for those on my whitelist, the game is Fancy Skulls

All the giveaways will be live until 16th March.

Thanks for reading and (hopefully) completing the survey! :)

Update1: Wow, guys, I am surprised and also very flattered by the fact how many of you completed the survey and bumped the thread! :) Also, I forgot to mention a few things (I had to rush to attend one of my classes):

  1. I removed the persons from my whitelist before the survey was introduced, but do not worry, I will add them once the survey is over.
  2. Those who bumped the thread will stay on my whitelist after the survey is over.
  3. I am NOT a Valve employee. :)
  4. Sorry if some of the statements made you feel uncomfortable or was hard to understand. I adopted them from academic studies.

Update2 There has been more participants than I expected, there are more than 890 answers, a big THANK YOU to all of you! :) However, as always, there have been some trolls who completed the survey only for the giveaways but fortunately this will not affect the results as I will screen them out.
I don't want to sound insatiable but it would be nice to reach 1000 respondents (because it's a nice round number and for segmentation purposes it's better).

Update3 The survey link will be available until 1 March, after that you will not be able to complete it. The results are expected to be shared in late March (as I will have to translate it from Hungarian to English and I also have a lot of things and projects to do mid-semester :( ) I will post the link in this thread and also create a new thread, so if you do not want to bookmark this thread, you can still come across with it. Once again, I would like to thank all of you to complete my survey! :)

the third part was a bit... weird... i imagined a cultist praying at the altar of gaben while chanting
"I’m proud to use Steam
I am enthusiastic in Steam
I am excited when I use Steam
Using Steam makes me feel like a better person
Using Steam makes a difference in my life
Steam reflects my values" xD
i just can't imagine anyone to go as far as saying those things :P
But still - an interesting survey, i'd love to know how many gaben cultists are out there xD

On the hardware page asking about what gpu we own one of the choices was ATI but I think you meant AMD? ATI was acquired by AMD years ago and they don't use the ATI brand anymore.

Bump and thanks for the GAs! Can you share the results of your survey with me if possible? I've been writing some essays about Steam since last year for my master's degree and your data may be helpful.

I was uncertain if I should count places like steam gift as "steam community"... oh well, all done...

Oh, I hadn't thought about it
I just assumed steam community meant actually in steam, as in http://steamcommunity.com/ ._.

Yeah, I wouldn't really call this "steam community", but this certainly is a community that would not exist without steam.

Well I guess that's true
Maybe there should have been some question about other communities, specially when posting from SG ^^u

I meant the Steam community, you know within Steam, not other websites or anything. :)

Sounds interesting I guess.
Do you already have some hypothesis to contrast with the results?
Also, are you getting more survey entries other than from SG?

bump ... interested in what the results will show. Curious if you intentionally did not include any "number of hours" questions. Wouldn't it be more valuable to see how long games or the platform is used as opposed to "number of times?"

Good point but I think there is a larger fluctuation in 'number of hours' than in 'number of times'.

Thanks for the feedback! :)
