Saw a article on a large number of gamers being over 55 and then I saw this which I believe needs to be addressed in our current laws.

    I am surprised anyone cares that much. I don’t. 900 games and a 20+ year old account and I fully get that it all just goes away when I die, it just doesn’t matter. That is simply part of the plan when you pay for the convenience of having a cloud of installers and save files.

    My kids don’t care. They already have their games. If they wanted ones that I played they will buy it in a steam sale.

    The things you need to care about are creative software. My kids would be pissed if the artwork I made could never be retrieved. But games? Meh.

      I agree with you, especially when viewed with an eye towards practicality. It opens so many cans of worms that it’s probably not worth Valve investing any resources.
