I am in search for a game but can only find it on Steam. I did find someone on CS who had the game build that could launch without Steam but the link is long expired… Do you guys know where it is possible to find Steam less games?? I really don’t want to download Steam just to play 1 game on my laptop.

      I did search few but no one has it… the game is free on steam and is old (unmaintained). So cant find it nowhere…

        Ok, since it’s a free game, you can post the title so someone might be able to help you locate a non-steam version. But don’t get your hopes up - it may simply be unavailable.

          Yeah this post seems kinda sus considering how many times they’ve avoided saying what game it is. And not wanting to use Steam at all? Steam is the one corp you can still have some trust in. I see a post like this and it reeks of them doing something most likely illegal in a bad way, or they are a bad actor trying to fuck with our shit again. Either that or they’re a weeb that’s too embarrassed to name the furry porn game they’re looking for.

            Let’s not jump to conclusions here. We do have a rule against requesting specific titles, but if it’s a free title anyway then I think it’s not such a big deal in this particular case.

          Its Muck it was available until the links expired. I might have found it on softonic but never used that website before so asking here if anyone knows anything

        no pirated game needs steam to launch, maybe what you are referring to is steam teşease of a game, which is steam version being pirated, doesn’t need steam at all
