Very few of those have anything to do with Steam, which you both recklessly conflate with DRM. Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 07/06/2011 11:59:20 PM
Like it or not, Steam and other digital distributors are the only reason PC games are even holding on. Digital distribution of games is not the problem; increasingly intrusive DRM and nickle-and-dimeing DLC is. Look at Good Old Games for an example of an excellent online distribution system. I seriously doubt you could connect Steam to increased DRM and DLC; they are all simply emergent business behaviors from the proliferation of the Internet.

It's funny that you mention WoW when it's arguably one of the most heavily restricted and repeatable games in existence.
