Steam is such a good, user-friendly platform nobody really cares that it wraps everything in DRM.
Even if the world ended and Valve had to shut down Steam I feel pretty comfortable in the assumption they would "do right" by their customers in the end times to get around the DRM issues.
- hartror 15y agoIt really is DRM done right, it now rarely breaks and the offline mode works. I rarely buy games other than on steam any more.
- makomk 15y agoWith the exception of, for some reason, Portal 2 which was an unreliable disaster of buggy DRM at first launch and still requires me to disable my anti-virus software in order to actually get it to pass the DRM check and start. (Also, if you're offline the first time you attempt to actually start Portal 2 and presumably other modern Steam DRM games it won't run.)
