    Well, I guess that means that as far as Valve knows I’ll still be happily slaughtering zombies in L4D2 at the ripe old age of 130

    I wonder if the servers will still be up

    We really need to enshrine digital ownership and bequeathment into law.

    We should also repeal the DMCA, but one step at a time.

      Please? I’m in. But the settlement should be a change to steam’s policy, ideally. People spend hard-earned lifeforce credits on this shit

    Fuck that, this non-transferrable license shit can go to hell. Going to move more of my purchases to Itch and GOG until someone unfucks this.

    Another way to influence companies is with your money, and GOG allows you to download entire DRM-less backups of your game.

      Unfortunately they also take a cut of 30% of game sales which is annoying considering the lack of features they have compared to Steam
