    Most games on Steam are DRM-free and you can start them without a launcher (meaning Steam).

    So you can buy a game, download it, copy game files, refund, keep playing.

      Most? Try 4%.

        OK, I stand corrected.

        It seems that I’m just a fan of the DRM-free games.

          I saw another source that claimed ~25% of the top-rated games are DRM-free, so it seems to be quite lopsided. And even moreso if you happen to like indie games I imagine

            I happen to like Open source games the most, with some exceptions :D but OpenTTD is one of my most favourite games. I wish games were made open-source like decade after release.

              Can you give some more examples? I’m interested

                Absolutely recommend if you like Red Alert or RTS - OpenRA.

                Turn-based strategy Battle for Wesnoth. It’s old, I played it first 16 years ago, but I returned to it recently and it’s OK.

                Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead I have not played, only saw reviews, but it has its fans.

                Shattered Pixel Dungeon for some roguelike action.

                0AD is another RTS, I’ve heard good things about it, but haven’t played it myself yet.

                  I like Mindustry (automation/RTS/Tower Defense) and Unciv (performant Civ 5 clone with quality of life improvements) too.
