It’s literally not.
That's why I argued at the outset you're renting the game, not buying it
at some point youre forced to leave old systems behind
Of course you are
But on games on CD/DVD or older, provided you have the hardware you can always use them
try to buy a SHA1 SSL certificate so you can support clients that don't support SHA256. just see who will sell you one
And what's more important, is given the direction of travel, you will find people being banned on Steam for poltiical views or in-game behaviour
that’s also not true. Steam states in their EULA SPECIFICALLY that you are PURCHASING digital copies of the titles you buy. You have executive rights with whatever you do to them, which is why you have clear access to steam/steam apps/common and it’s not all hidden in a secret folder where you can’t touch it.
Or whatever the platform is at the time (Stadia etc)
steam are definitely not immune to political posturing - remember 'Hatred'?
Also, it’s not planned obsolescence. Your OS is deprecated. It is dead. It will die soon as all programs update around it. Either by abandoning support, or the programs simply becoming too advanced for your machine to handle. That is not the fault of the companies for advancing their programs as the technology advanced. That’s on you.

It's planned obsolenscence
And you’re retarded.
I’ve said all I’ve needed to. You clearly don’t understand what you’re talking about.
and Gaben apologized?
reputation seems clean to me
Gespa - if you decide you are going to stop supporting an operating system, then that is planned obsolenscence
That's what the term means
that's
not
planned
The reasons are entirely reasonable
that's just obsolesence
you idiot
ah i didnt realise theyd reinstated it
jesus
you are so dumb
Of course it's fucking planned
it was rubbish btw
*facepalm*
XP is a shit OS
No, planned obsolescence is when you decide from the start when to cut it off strategically so you can force your customers to buy things on your own schedule.
that requires you to bend over backwards to support as a developer
Look at Microsoft's website, they state at the outset when they are supporting software until
ITS NOT PLANNED BY THE DEVELOPERS
Planned obsolescence is like what Apple does
BECAUSE IT'S A BITCH TO KEEP SUPPORTED
AND ONLY IDIOTS USE IT ANYWAYS
