Yes, I know DRM-free means you can still physically play the games. Thats not what I’m asking.
Sparked by a recent discussion about DRM, I’m wondering what happens legally when different game stores close. For example, if Steam shuts down, are licences presumed to presist or are they revoked? What about GOG, Itch.io or Epic? I couldn’t find anything in the terms of service specifying.
What happens if you simply disconnect from the internet, how does it know to “update”?
Some programs monitor the system clock for purposes like this.
But in the case of Steam games, many of your games would work just fine.
