Mixed feelings bc this is going to cut people off from playing a lot of games with folks in other parts of the world, which to me is one of the main draws of online gaming. But fuck steam 100%.
Piracy is always an option
True, and VPNs exist. It's more of an access thing. Lots of people don't have hte technical knowledge and skills to do these things.
A lot of Internet cafes in Vietnam already use pirated games. But cracked multiplayer games usually cannot play with legit players.
Access to multiplayer games is no great loss to society, imo.
