If you cannot pass on your ownership rights to your purchased games to your children, then you cannot pass on your copyright either, I guess?

😂 this platform continues to make me laugh. Everybody worships steam but somehow all other businesses are bad.

Yes as a long time PC gamer, I don't understand why people act as if steam and valve are gods. Like ok cool it has the most games and whatever, but they've been going downhill. There's so many random asset flips and porn games now, and their sales have been shit for years now. I remember games going on sale for 90% off during seasonal sales, and all the % off coupons they'd just randomly give out. That never happens now.

Exactly. This is why I buy grey market steam game codes for games now.

Steam has mostly fixed the "service" issue compared to something like streaming services. One place to get almost any and all games. One account to access it all. Very simple for the end user. And does a load for the community as well. Take a look at proton for a example.
