A lot of steam games dont have drm
You would lose only most of your library, not all of it
I would lose some of my library, but I think most of it would still work.
If a game has multiplayer, it most likely has DRM
Terraria and Cuphead are games i know dont work because of that
Can you not connect by IP in Terraria? I had though I had multiplayer running without even starting steam at one point...
Because steam multiplayer is implemented into the game, you cant open the app if steam is not installed
Plenty of games don't rely on any Steamworks API at all. For the remaining goldberg_emulator exits.
But he's not talking about those ones.
You can play the game without the steam client
