Good job. I didn't find out about steam because d2lod had control back in the day. Im 10 years. If d2 didn't exist I'd be 19 like you.

Ohhh!! Very nice

The exact same thing would happen back when you had to buy a physical copy of a game that didn't require a launcher. Game developers can't make games that will stand the test of time and Steam is not to blame when developers don't port or update games to make them more compatible to newer hardware, software and operating systems.

Well, as time passes it bound those older games if not updated by their games developing companies they inherently grow "obsolete".

Pretty much like this comment on "common sense". It also grew "obsolete" the moment it was spouted out of that keyboard too.

That's not what went wrong. All my games were working just fine. But then steam came along and said hey you can't use your operating system anymore so I had to go into offline mode to keep them. Steam was the one that tried to take away all my games, they didn't get old, someone tried to take them away.

Well, and you don't own 'em anyway. It's a license and the games are often full of DRM.

If your glibc version is older than 2.31, update it and the Steam client and subsequent games will function. Outdated systems are more vulnerable to malware and it doesn't support new features used in the Steam Client to function properly. Steam isn't abandoning Linux, they are simply aligning with modern operating systems as technology advances.

Edit: Maybe you're not aware but those that use Windows, need to use Windows 10 or newer for their games to run. And in time, Windows 10 will cease to be supported entirely. And anything older than that are incapable of running the Steam Client.

And Steam isn't taking away your games, they'll be right there in the library waiting for you.

Still doesn't change the fact that you're still old and getting closer and closer to the grave that has the answer to life.

...Also I don't think Steam does not that. Unless I missed something on the remade ToS again due to it being a drastically long read.

Cause they only do that if you're device is compatible with a game you bought.
It'll still be there in your library... you just can't play it unless you use a app that changes the code of window files into the device you're running on or you use a virtual machine.
