Overall I agree with you except your example of Steam. Steam is DRM. Gaming is going towards more online by adding value (just like SAAS can't be pirated like traditional software) always online games by nature such as Battlefield 4 can't be pirated as well. That's possibly why also Simcity decided to go online but the added value wasn't enough and caused a backslash.
