>steam sale>don't want to buy anything>suddenly an ocd/fomo-type feeling appears where it tells me to buy my most beloved classics because my dvds are quite old and worn out now and due to the dev fuckery I possibly wont be able to have them in the future - like it happened to yakuza fans recentlyis this rational or fucking stupid? i likely will have less and less time for games in my life and won't return to all of them but the possibility of being unable to return to games like gothic, splinter cell, thief, gta iv etc. because the ip owners delist them from steam and replace them with some ai-made slop makes me very uncomfortable.
piracy is right there, no digital delisting will take it away from you
>>729032302but can't that get fucked as well? look at the internet now and how it changed in only 10 years (not to even mention 90s and 00s internet). with the leash put on the internet tightening the pirate scene could be easily purged as well, no?
>>729032489what do you think will go down first? I wouldn't bet on Steam being around for all eternitythat's why I store the game I'm likely to replay in a DRM-less form, it's very convenient and doesn't cost me the headache you are having right now.
>>729032168The digital apocalypse will one day arrive. What your gut telling right now is smart. Go out and buy/pirate your favorite games. Before you lose the chance to do so. Heed this warning boy before it is too late.
