"Hey cousin, thanks for letting me borrow your game, it was fun!"
>>737140994
>>737140994>Steam closes down in the future, therefore no more gamesSteam has been running for 24 fucking years, and assholes on this board are still acting like it's going to imminently disappear. Fuck off.
>>737140994how does the pic even correlate

>collectionWhy are people such fags nowadays? You buy physical used games and sell them after, borrow them from friends, get them at the library. You pirate digital games. You don't need a collection, you need to play games.
>>737140994Raping press then marriage
>>737142390All it takes is for Gabe to get compromised. Mentally, emotionally, or if he's found in certain files. The bigger they are, the harder they fall.
>>737142472if you dont have a shelf of obscure and old videogames in your house you are a normalfag tourist redditor faggot
>>737143643I've played and sold more games than you've ever known buddy, I've been here for 20 years. I have like 4 discs in my house Halo 3 ODST, the second disc from the Oblivion collector's edition, a Spider-Man 2 Songs Inspired By The Movie, and a copy of Spyfox in Dry Cereal I got out of a cereal box. Kill yourself, you don't even play video games.
>>737142606The files are complete nothingburger, thus far causing downfall for a grand total of zero people.
>>737140994No matter what we do our games will disappear forever eventually.
>>737142472You replay the games poorfag retard

>>737142390>Steam has been running for 24 years That's not even a lot. And nothing lasts forever. Gabe won't be around forever. Investors and richer people out there can just take Steam. Rebrand it or change it to something else effectively resulting in it dying.
>>737140994I've never had a disc get scratched so badly it doesn't work and I once let my cousin borrow Call of Juarez Bound in Blood and he loved it so much he passed it around to his friend group I was kinda friends with. In total it was months and like 6 households before I saw it again and it still worked perfectly
All data is physically stored on something, retards. Make copies. Store a Win 7 compatible PC somewhere before they're no longer available.

The only real option is to have the freedom to make as many digital and physical copies of your property as you desire.
>>7371409943 words:Ruggedized local storage.I have redundent local storage in different locations of every game I have ever truly cared about, and because I grew up when games were smaller in size and designed around local play this is very easy for me.Physical-only or service-only idiots scream and shit their pants at the idea of actually owning your files locally in an easy backed up manner for some reason. I only point out the superior method because I want to help them preserve their experiences but they get defensive about it.
>>737142390Anon, Visa almost made it close down just a few months ago. It's still up because they started purging games and it'll keep getting worse.
>>737144539My friend swapped my 360 from sitting to standing while it was running Command and Conquer 3 and that was a reliable way at that time to scratch it in a way that makes it unreadable. That was the only time for me.

just store your games on tapes in a salt mine idiot
What's more likely to happen, your game disc gets lost or gets scratched. Or Steam becomes permanently offline?
>>737145803both on the same day just to fuck with you
>>737140994>Digital is best!>legislation makes it so that all modern OS’s need ID verification to function
>>737145994>Normalfag problemsWhat are you even doing here?
>Steam closes down in the future
>>737145803I think steam going offline totally is incredibly unlikely, but the idea of your steam library existing and being just as accessible at the same level of user-friendliness for the next 5 decades of your life is also in itself very unlikely. How will they make it worse? I have no idea, but things do typically get worse for this sort of thing as people die and new greedy blood enters the game. Always have a local backup for this reason, don't depend on steam like it will always be there for you in the same capacity because that's how you get burned.
>>737146167How do you know it's not gonna happen?
>>737146089normalfag site
>>737146243you assume anon would just let that happen.
>>737146182>How will they make it worseEvery single update steam had to it's UI has made it look worse and work slower, so I expect these to continue until we're all forced to use Big Picture 2.0 for maximum suffering
>>737146302Anon has no power to keep it from happening. He would be sitting on the sidelines watching whatever court case or legal battle determines the fate of the games he bought a license to but does not have independent access to. It's a whole lot harder to take away something you have than it is to get back something you don't.
Post your PHYSICAL collection.
>>737140994That's why I just pirate most of the games I want, unless it's something I really want or friendslop.Also because I'm poor.
>>737144934>he thinks it's his propertyHeh.
>>737146670>PreguminEh, time to hit the panda.
>>737140994be idort and use bothif both get fucked you either stored your collection and backups in the same place like a fucking idiot or everyone else probably got fucked as well
>>737146964This. I prefer physical but I have no problem with digital. For the Resident Evil series for example, I have some on digital and some physical
Don't mind me. Just collecting Megumin reaction images.
DIGITALGODS vs PHYSICALSISSIES
>When the fat kike dies the steam will be compromised as if it wasn't always compromised nooooooYou'll still keep buying steam games and start shilling Gayben's retarded sons. And stop posting Megumins or I will kiss you on the lips.
>>737147208Obligatory.
>>737140994Steam shutting down doesn't delete the games from my PC. Also with steam games, making backups is trivial, not the case with console games.
Imagine
>>737146167Steamdrones really think its just gonna exist forever?

>>737147693Bros, how many eggs is she capable of eating?A whole bowl?
>>737145803Probably the discs because a lot of people are retardedIf not retarded both aren't going to be an issue for a long time

>>737140994>pet or sibling breaks itTake better care of your shit
Physical is great. You can frisbee the disc out the window when you get pissed off at Tony Hawk 2.
