For me the answer is 847 USD over 14 years …
Aah, that’s a bit hard to calculate due to Steam keys from bundles and other websites. Running some rough numbers it looks to be about $2600 CAD over 15 years, so… not too bad?

I don’t wanna set my library to public so SteamDB can figure it out, but it’s over $1000 just going by what I can get to in my history (which does not go all the way back to 2003 when I first made my account and had gotten HL2 and Ragdoll KungFu as my first two purchases on Steam).
Can you not check directly if your account is private? I went through Help > Support > My Account> Data Related to Account > External Funds Used for totals. Does that rely on a public profile?
I have mine set to private and can still use that steamdb calculator thing.
A whole $00.00
More than $6815.18, because my account is older than 2015 and purchases onyl go back to 2015.
But in reality, I will just reacquire the games if my library gets taken. Barnes & Noble isn’t breaking into my home to take books out of my bookshelf, it is not unreasonable to demand digital products are treated the same. So I treat them the same, regardless of what moron politicians say.
Over 12 years, apparently only ~$1255.33USD over the past 12 years. Also realized I have a huge gap in my purchase history from 2015 to 2020. And it looks like the majority of my spending has been from 2020 onward.
Gonna have a presume at least a little over a quarter of my spending is due to me buying an officially refurbished LCD model deck when they were in stock a couple years ago. IDK actual price because it’s lumped in with like 3-4 games I bought at the same time, roughing out to $403.something-cents before tax.
Idk probably about $250
Maybe $300 in total.
According to Steam, ive spent $1440 dollars over 13 years.
Thing is, I have 930 games.
And while I pride myself on only buying during sales or other massive discounts, an average of $1.54 per game seems extremely low to me.
Nor does the fact that even when factoring in my supposed savings, i would have spend only 4.76 per game if not on sale especially since I have a fair number of AAA games on the account.
So im not sure steam is tracking me accurately.
If you went hard on the early humble bundles and also subscribed to humble monthly for a while it’s possible
Probably over 10k CAD. Not sure how old the account Is but it’s quite old.
I found a purchase history page in the client, so it might be able to tell you how old an account might be by scrolling all the way down. IDK how far back it goes, though, since my account is only a little over 12 years old.

I don’t get the question.
The money is gone now, so it’s already “lost”.
Or do you mean how many games did I buy that I have never played? That is an interesting metric I guess.
You get the question, you’re just criticizing it.
Ok, then the question didn’t need the extra fluff:
How much have you spent on steam. Is that what they want to know?
I have spent $7664 apparently.
Probably close to $1,500.
10-20$
£1094, or £2055 today (15 year account).
Rookie numbers, looking at the other replies.
2,900 CAD apparently
$6,227 per SteamDB
SteamDB says an account value of $4017 and $6438 USD in today’s prices, over the course of 21.4 years. I’ve transitioned my new purchases to GOG when possible.
$1850 @ 21 years
Zero. I cannot convert these games to money anyway.
Probably like 5k over 15 yrs

$1320.15 USD or like £988 GBP over the last 7 years damn-
That’s like £150 a year-
Bet most are unplayed too because I rack up hundreds of hours on a couple of games then forget about the rest oops. I gotta start going through my backlog.
