i see. as i said, i’d still consider it drm even in a case like yours where it never gives you trouble. i find performance suffers mostly in edge cases for me but it’s often enough that i prefer to simply take steam out of the equation entirely.

Do you manually open the games’ locations and then open their executables or what?

i just keep a folder with shortcuts to the games i play on the desktop tbh, i am a bit of a slob that way. anyway this is all very no-stakes so i’m not trying to convince anyone of anything here. if you like something and it works for you then you should use it! i will continue to pirate because that’s what works best for me.

i’m away from my pc for the week but does steam not require you have it running for basically every game? even if it’s a switch devs can flip it still falls under the same category imo but i am curious and don’t know the full facts here

Why the fuck wouldn’t I buy from their store?

bc it’s functionally always-on DRM? i mean feel free to spend money how you will but there are tons of good reasons to avoid steam

sorry you had to see people being shitty about it. i really wish folks would understand that mental illness does not make you a bad person, and that our enemies are bad people because they choose to be hateful bigots, not bc they’re born with spicy brain.

for anyone curious, the owner seems to be a right-wing shithead

(see how easy that was to say without being ableist and weird about it?)

nothing should ever be better than it was in the past. everything should continue to suck forever.

drink your own piss and die, dumbass

people who don’t uncritically swallow state dept propaganda are bad, actually
