You own the games on steam too. It's the same thing, steam just has a front end with graphics.

Like I can take the .exe and install it on any other computer own them?

Yup. They're just files. You'll want to move the entire game folder for steam, the install file doesn't come with the games.

I see, it makes sense as the game would have a bunch of dependencies that are all over that folder. Thank you, I didn't know that.
