I was a pirate since the 80s. I even financed my first sports car with warez-cds 😁 But steam does have its merits. Don't worry about updates. As only the major games get updates by pir8s. But as steam's DRM is trivial, it's kinda easy-piracy. I already have like 50TB downloaded. If they ever go nuts I'll download all my favourites and write a script to un-drm them.

And I would love for gog to have current games too. Would stop buying at steam, but 99% of what gog has to offer I already have on steam for many years
