If you cannot pass on your ownership rights to your purchased games to your children, then you cannot pass on your copyright either, I guess?

      Yes. In those cases the steam DRM is usually for achievements, friend joining, and checking that it was run via steam.

      There are plenty of “steam emulators” or even patchers that remove the steam DRM.

      So as long as you have the files applications such as SteamEMU and Steamless are godsends in ensuring that when you “buy” a game you will still be able to play it.

      Yes, happens all the time on gog. They don’t have the same library of games but there is an overlap.

        If the game is DRM free on GOG it usually only has the Steamworks DRM on steam. That one is so easy to remove that you might aswell call it DRM free since its only use is to make publishers think their game is protected.
