    Aside from not liking being dependent on a internet connection in the first place and tinfoil hat stuff, it was doing something weird with a partition on my old computer so I just disabled the whole thing and didn’t look back.

        It’s not actually necessary, they’re just really bitchy about taking no for an answer.

          It’s more than Steam is an internet based distribution system. You can’t use steam WITHOUT an internet connection.

              Bruh, I hate “The Cloud” meme that businesses love today, I selfhost everything I can, but Steam really is a 'Cloud" business. Lots of other people’s computers used to store and distribute video games via a custom application.
