I understand what you’re saying, but it’s literally not. DRM is very specifically code added to games to prevent them from being copied and shared. Words mean things, ya know
Unless the game has DRM built in by the developer, you can just fucking launch the game standalone my yin
That’s what I said in the earlier comment
Steam isn’t preventing you from launching shit
It’s not complicated
Sorry for being a snarky jerk, but it’s literally what I said earlier, you can just go to the game folder and launch the executable. Steam doesn’t prevent it, it’s not stopping you from doing anything.
No. It literally is. It is specifically Digital Rights Management. You are using the colloquial term, not the literal. Words do mean things.
You have no capacity to access these products via any other system than Steam. You have no means to redistribute, modify, etc. except for what Steam forwards to you. This is no different than Netflix. It is no different than Spotify.
Denuvo is also a DRM solution, that is leveraged to prevent tampering and reverse engineering. This is because Steam’s DRM guarantees do not rise to the level desired by many publishers. These DRM solutions are more consumer hostile, sure, but it’s ignorant to suggest Steam does not perform a portion of these duties as well.
My guy, Steam is DRM

You have to log into steam to be able to launch any game you own on steam. As opposed to launching the game standalone.
This is the gateway you have to cross to access what you paid for.
That’s the management of digital rights, right there. It’s not complicated.
