If you had them downloaded yes. But if you didn’t and they disappeared?

    I would just a get pirated copy.

    I haven't pirated games in a very long time, but this seems like a fair thing to do in such a situation. If the game is cheap and/or I like the studio, I would probably just rebuy on GOG.

    And, friendly nudge:

    It's not hard to back up games from Steam. Especially those with no DRM. Just keep them on a drive somewhere.

    Pretty expensive though, given the prices on storage. And many of them will be out of date in a few months. Face it, we can download from the high seas at any time, the only reason most of us are buying on steam is convenience. Whatever we could backup on steam today we could just retrieve from elsewhere at any time.
