    1980 console rom games should last as long as we have silicon technology.

    Anything on steam is probably not going to make it to 2050.

        A promise they have never honored. This was made blatantly clear when the steamdeck came out.

        Only some games can run in offline mode.

          Well, some games are dependent on online mode, or don’t make sense in offline mode. Especially MMOs. In the end, it’s just shutting down the game servers.

          Got any specific names?
