Steam is DRM. You can get it on GOG if you don't want any form of DRM.

There are DRM free games on steam.
Not all games on steam use the steam DRM, so you dont need to run steam for some games.

I just tried it and the updated version doesn't start if steam isn't running, the older version starts but seems to crash on my PC.

I guess if you want a proper DRM-free version you should buy it at
The Humble Store[www.humblebundle.com] (DRM-free but also comes with a steam key)
or at
GOG[www.gog.com]

I just solved my problem! I moved all of my hotline miami folders from steamapps and made another folder for the game. I logged out from steam and i launched the original version of hm and it worked without crashing or anything.

So you answered your own question. I have done the same thing with a few games on here. Death Road to Canada is highly recommended. Pure DRM free games are always the BEST for the consumer due to ease of use...and yes these are my MOST prized games!

Yeah, sorry for the necro. I realised it AFTER I had typed and posted. Pretty sure I was searching to find out if this game I was hoping to buy used the basic steam api drm. I was pretty sure I saw it on the list of DRM free online, yet I guess I wanted to double check to make sure it was the BEST purchase for myself. As mentioned I enjoy those games most because of ease of use for my own library. Usually they take up the LEAST system resources also, which is a nice bonus.

No worries, bro! Such a nice throwback.
