My colleague (late 40s) is still like that. Buys only GoG or I guess physical, although it’s mostly codes nowadays anyway? I mean good for him but he misses out on like 80% of games.
I don’t think Steam will ever die but I hope it won’t fall into enshittification at some point.
This is my fear. Gabe won’t last forever, and I don’t know anyone else who has a customer centric approach as he does. Maybe that guy from Costco who threatened to kill someone over the hot dog price.

As long as Valve remains a private company, and Gabe remains in charge, I don’t see them getting too shitty.
But if they go public? Forget about it.

As a patient gamer, I only buy older games on sale under ten bucks. I don’t replay games too often, so if I lose access it’s a big whatever.
