Many people seem to forget here that only a percentage of the money that you pay for a game goes to Steam/Valve - the rest goes to the publisher / developer of the game.
Which means that even if Steam went away, you still paid for your goods: To the publisher / developer. And I very much doubt that any sane company would just tell everyone to "just buy our games again" - first, because it's probably illegal in many countries, and second, would be a pr disaster.

Quoting: GuestI would also prefer if Feral and others (Aspyr, Croteam…) made DRM-free releases on DRM-free platforms, because with Steam a tiny change by Valve can mean I don’t have access to my games anymore. Tomb Raider stopped working here, but I have no idea if it’s because of a game update (that are impossible to prevent with Steam), a Steam client update, or a system update. And that’s only one game but if the Steam client completely stops working then it’s bye bye to hundreds of games I paid for.
The positive thing about Steam is I can get a refund if the game doesn’t work or I don’t like it…

I'll give it another try tonight - the last time I tried (two-three weeks ago maybe?) it did render all skyboxes white.

And just TODAY I thought my 500 GB SSD is enough.
Thanks for getting me broke, Feral.

Ugh... Don't remind me.
I originally supported them as they seemed to be cool people (I liked their update videos and stuff). But yeah, it's easy to get the wrong impression.

Can't even start the game... It crashes after OpenGL initialisation on AMD drivers it seems, at least on MESA.

Looking forward to this, hopefully everything goes well!
