When did it start being so complicated to play games on PC?
I've been a Steam user for years so of course I would prefer all of my games to be in the same place. But with a never ending list of companies who want to own their own platforms it's become a hassle.
I'm so used to launching steam whenever I want to play PC game that I even forgot I owned other games which are on Uplay and Origin.
What are your thoughts on DRMs?
I miss the times when you could have a whole collection of physical CDs or cassettes. When you could just put the disk in the PC and play a game without having to launch a 3rd party program or having to be connected to the internet. Nowadays it seems the games you purchase don't even belong to you.
All it takes is one update or the 3rd party program required to play the game not working and you can't even play a game you've purchased full price.
