Maybe someone will create a gaming model that 'borrows' from every known game in existence, so that we'll finally get an Artificial Gaming-you Intelligence.
with the current console games. Even with disk, it's a huge download on first play. I wonder how playable these games are in there initial state without download...
I had a bunch of 32bit Mac games that will never run again, when they transitioned to 64bjt only software. I don't often replay and like many have a backlog o steam games I'll likely never get too. With steam and proton I have high confidence things will continue to run in the future..
Kind of like emulation keeps working.. or I can play my old doom wad files in a new doom executable.
But you are right that I’m kinda betting that things will continue as is with steam.
