    Fyi, steam doesn’t add additional DRM to games. So long as the maker hasn’t added anything significant, you can often just copy the game folder out, and run it independently. There’s nothing (in theory) to stop you backing it up yourself.

      There’re few games that work like that. Many use the steam basic drm, making the game not launching if a valid steam session is not running.

      That’s why I have the generic steam crack. In case they pull the plug some day.
