Also like all steam applications bundles with Steam's DRM, right?

Wonder what happens when valve/steam shut down one day.

About 20 years ago when it first came about this was also a question and Valve said they would "find a way" to unlock games for everyone. Now back then, that was when they only had Valve games on Steam, and a weird ninja game that I bought but never played, setting a president for all time...

Best case scenario it's bought, or other platforms honor a number of steam purchases as a perk. But ultimately...poof

Luckily they make a lot, have relatively low operation costs, and are a private company that doesnt need to be enshitified for share holders
