This is peak Gaben simp meme. Steam were the pioneers of "you don't own the game, you just own a licence to play it" model which has caused massive amounts of enshittification of the gaming industry. Not to mention all the other bullshit they've pushed over the years.

But valve always gets a pass because dumbass games think "lord Gaben" is their best friend because he sells other peoples games for 90% off some times.

Idk man. I remember someone recommending spec ops: the line a few weeks ago, but said it's not available on steam any more. I bought it eons ago and had no problem besides controls getting it on my deck.

Have you finished it yet? It's best played through fairly quickly so you can remember different parts. There are a couple of frustrating encounters, but the story is top notch.

Fuck me! No I got like 2 hours in a while back but my god damned AuDHD had me focus on something else.

Not a particularly bad place to stop, I got a few hours in, stopped, then when I picked it back up I realised I'd basically stopped right before the story kicks in and was hooked for the rest.

I think I stopped right after the white phosphorus scene. Maybe it was emotionally fucking with me is why I dropped it. Now that I'm thinking about it, I'll prolly pick it up after my family leaves town.

Yeah, that's right when the story really gets going. Remember that scene and binge from there, and I'm sure you're gonna appreciate what the game is about.
