I remember the uproar when CS 1.6 required steam. It was huge and everyone was angry. It took a lot of pull that CS didn’t die because of steam, a lot of players stayed on 1.5 for a long time. But HL2 was too big of an argument to stay off steam.
It was Garry’s mod that got me personally. I saw it somewhere and my jaw dropped, I had to have it. Steam didn’t make a lot of sense to me at the time, but the thought of a physics sandbox was practically unheard of before that.
