And no a legacy layuncher isn't gonna happen for reasons you well know by now, since it's been repeated enough times. A client that's out of sync with the backend is basically useless.
Any game dev can do this if they wish. Steam isn't required to even be installed to run a downloaded game unless the developer wants it to be. Many games on steam will run even if steam wasn't installed at all.
You'll run into the problem where if you buy a new game you will not be able to install it because you'd need to run the client to start the download.
Also because a lot of games need Steam to be running in order to play.
I doubt these people will be playing their old game forever too.
My older game is a heavily modded version of Skyrim. After 2000 hours of tinkering I’ve over 300 mods working without crashes. If they force me to update the OS I have to start updating the mods and some of the mods were taken down two years ago in protest to changes being imposed on modders. This is a stand alone set-up only used to run Skyrim LE. I know they could allow me to run my version without using Steam and I’m very disappointed that after a month and 10 requests no one is listening except chat-bots. I’m even offering to pay a monthly fee as compensation for their time but crickets. Is that the way a client focused firm behaves?
The cost would be insane, so unless you're a millionaire your offer likely isn't sensible (you're talking about monthly pay, benefits and whatnot for multiple employees who are also trained on legacy systems). You can back up your current mods - be they .esp's or .bsp's or what have you - on to another drive in preparation. You can also backup your install and restore in once you upgrade. There are also likely some alternatives involving SteamCMD or linux, if hardware is a consideration.
Good point, but the idea was really to have Steam divide that cost between me and all other legacy users rather than have me pay the whole cost. I simply want to give Steam a range of ways to respond because, irritatingly, the haven’t said anything at all since my first support inquiry a month ago.
Skyrim original, LE, SE and AE all run on Windows 10.
As for mods they are 3rd party and the Skyrim forums are full of advice regarding mods.
Your offer won't be considered, Valve won't deviate from their course. Not unless people actually take action via consumer agencies/lawyers.
I still partially wonder if they might add some sort of legacy compatibility to use basic client functions but not other portions, though I'm more inclined to believe it'll probably be coded to not run updates or certain functions based upon the detected OS. One way to find out.
Suing Steam over this sounds silly even though I feel like throwing thunderbolts. I does however call into question the efficacy over the whole model of ‘buying’ a game that only works under third party software. While Steam used to feel like a pioneer they now feel like an uncaring megacorp.
If people want it differently, whether that's a legacy client, a somewhat disconnected client or whatever, they'll have to take the only route that has a chance for that. Which is consymer agencies/lawyers. If people don't actually test the SSA in courts and such, Valve will simply do as they please.
Valve always has been a corp just like the rest. People who thought differently fell for the "good guy" marketing by Valve. The first time Valve/Steam dropped support was in 2007, I think, barely 4 years after it came to be and 2 years after the first 3rd party titles came on Steam. So them dropping support for operating systems isn't exactly new.
