Can you even get physical PC games anymore? I have an official flash drive with Psychonauts 2 on it, but that’s just because I was a backer for hte game

Yeah that’s true, I was thinking more of consoles but I suppose Steam doesn’t really have any bearing on that market. I guess the better equivalent for PC would be DRM free games where it’s downloadable, and could be backed up to physical media (not provided). 😅

Indeed, and we honestly have Steam to thank for there even being a PC gaming market, there was a period of time where PC ports basically didn’t exist, and developers when asked why basically turned around and said they want the game to be bought with money instead of being downloaded off of limewire… and before Steam came along, there really wasn’t an answer to that question as piracy really was more convenient than the actual PC market at that time.
