   @noyoushutthefuckupdad @coolboymew yeah I still remember the "no-steam" CS:S servers and the "A.I. Disabled..." anti-piracy in half-life 2 and episodes. It was garbage at launch and was more of a form of DRM to Source/GoldSrc (rereleases of) games. Some of those things still remain today, like you cannot move GoldSrc games between drives because they are all stored in half-life directory, and moving them also means moving everything else which steam just can't comprehend as it doesn't really apply to other games.
   
   While I do still buy most of the games on steam it's usually indies and like. Pirating anime is also normal since there usually either no distributors or they are complete fucking dog shit, plus even if distributors are "decent" they aren't really paying to original creators either.
   
   I do share louis rossman's approach though - if you provide shit to me i'm just not interested in your content, it doesn't exist to me. Much like I see EGS exclusives as "delayed".
