so if steam goes offline or goes bankrupt, I lose all my games….forever?
if it stops getting updated then people will just spoof it
>>729275747This is going to happen some day, or maybe Steam will last until the end of humanity, who knows.
>>729275747>my gamesThey're not your games
>>729275747Yes. But luckily that will never happen because Valve is extremely wealthy and is too big to fail
>>729275747God why are frogposters so fucking stupid, no you daft retard you can easily start up games without steam
>>729275747thanks for subscribing to our service
>>729275747Yes. Didn't you burn them to a cd after buying?
>>729275747Your... games?LMAO
>>729275747>using steam in 2025lol
>>729275747If this happens there will probably be more important things to worry about than my vidya library
>>729275962>using in 2025lol
>>729275747Gabe was asked about this awhile ago, he said something to the effect of "you'll have a way to download your games if we ever go out of business". For as long as he's there, I trust that.
>your games
>>729275747Everything perishes. Get used to it.
I work for steam. Its catastrophic. We've all been called to work from home - on Christmas - to fix this. Currently no account is able to access their games from our server. Its the biggest hack we've ever experienced.
valve makes a bunch of money just by breathingthey'll never fall
>>729276373The bigger they are...
>>729275878>>729275961>>729276226Yes my games. I paid for them so I own them.
>>729275747If it happens, it happens
>>729276424heh
>>729276034>2025lol
>>729275747Just pirate them?
>>729276084I wonder if he's come up with a countermeasure for a solar flares.
>>729276424
>>729276084>For as long as he's therenot for much longer it seems. its amazing the lard ass hasnt gotten a heart attack yet
>solar flare rends your electronics apart>video games gone, money stolenwooooow
so if 4chan goes offline or goes bankrupt, I lose all my frens….forever?
>>729278221inshallah yes
>>729275747with all good things, they end at one point
>>729278221Yes. Probably worse. Think of the mass suicides and doxxes on reddit and X.
>>729277293can't really call him lard ass anymore, lord gayben has been shedding those pounds and good for him too
>>729276494lol
>>729275747cant you just open the game?
>>729276424So you own every hotel room you've stayed in?
>>729278221you have no friends
>>729278754>hotel roomWho the fucks pay to sleep in a different room when they own a truck? You fucking retards I swear.
>>729275747Thanks for playing :)
>>729275747It's kind of crazy that I'm already at the point in my life where that can happen right now and I wouldn't even care that much.It's so insanely easy to just find something else to do.
>>729276084That isn't how the law works, god I fucking hate the retards who repeat that shit. Gabe can't just say "yeah I legally license games on my platform but if my playform ever goes down I will give people the license to play games even outside my platform because I'm so kind" because he has no legal authority to do that. If Valve sells you a game he can't authorize you to also have it on a console because that is outside his platform and thus his legal control, and having NO access to steam means ALL legal rights to what he licenses on his platform end there, get it?Steam goes down and everything you bought on steam goes with it and there is no legal recourse. Plan for the future, don't bury your head about what will happen.
>>729279029more like thanks for paying LOLLLL amirite
>>729279163he can offer downloads for games, it's well withing valve's legal rights. If the game has external drm though that's on you
/v/ steamies finally face the truth, huh?
>>729275747I already don't play any of the games I buy. Nothing would change
>>729279637One thing would change. /v/ would mock you when it happens.
>>729279163He's one of the richest men on the planet, he'll probably just do it because he's a good guy. You're far too cynical, anon. Get that jewish cock out of your mouth for just a minute.
>>729279881 /v/ mocks you even when it doesn’t happen, anon. The day Steam dies we'll have an entire catalog full of cope threads, piracy guides, and schizos claiming they backed up the entire library on their toaster. It'll be beautiful.
