They don't have flippers

Oh lol nvm, scuffed discord

Without the larger database, there's no authorization pass. Which means no login, no login to any kind of online or offline mode.

steam can eat shit

Your games on steam are stored within the database, and if that database goes away you won't have game.s

You might be able to log in, but your library would be empty.

Several years ago, this happened. Nobody could log into steam for 48 hours and those that managed it found their profiles completely barren and void of any information because Valve's datacentre had a hardware issue.

All steam games have an ID. 4000 is Garry's Mod for example. Each ID has an authorization pass. You might be able to launch games that *don't require a valid steam ID token* but you will not be able to run any game that does

Which is 90% of all steam titles.

Roughly closer to 95%

How can you get a valid ID token when there's nothing to give you one, no storage or connection that can say yes or no.

If that is all true why can I play steam games without connecting to steam servers for a month? I know I don't understand the underlying technology here, but the explanation you're giving of how my steam library would disappear just doesn't match up with what I have seen with my own eyes.

And I don't mean booting up, logging in to steam, and enabling offline mode, I mean literal 0 internet

Gtg, I'll read your response later

I think you're missing the point.

i think you both gaey

You'll never be able to log in.

Not into offline mode, or into steam.

Just in general.

You'll be stuck on that login screen with your account and password being null.

You dont even need to log in to offline mode...

steam is bent

full stop

You can write literally "1" in the password field and it will still let you into your library in offline mode.
Because its offline, its a closed system.
You would need to get an update from steam for it to be able to shut you out

No, you can't.

You MUST log in to steam online mode before switching to offline.

No option here.

Turn off your internet for a sec, _duh_

nah that doesnt work anymore

Alright time to stop that

Okay. Give me a sec.
