cross-posted from: https://sh.itjust.works/post/33412058 > **Team Fortress 2 Classic** is a mod for Team Fortress 2 that re-imagines the early post-launch era — circa 2008 to 2009 — of the original game. Starting from there, we've added quality-of-life features, remade and reworked scrapped content, and built onto it with full-size updates in homage to TF2's timeless style and tone. > > **NEW-OLD FEATURES** > > * Meet the Civilian, a brand-new special class based on the legacy Team Fortress Classic character, and deliver him mostly-unharmed to the objective in VIP mode. > * Use TF2 prerelease-inspired weapons like the Nailgun, the Dynamite Pack, and the Tranquilizer Gun, all redesigned from the ground up to feel right at home with what's already there. > * Go on a rampage in Four-Team matches, where GRN and YLW bring their unique (yet strangely identical) brand of violence to Arena, King of the Hill, and more. > > **NEW-NEW FEATURES** > > * Exclusive new gamemodes, including Domination, Territorial Domination, and VIP Race — all playable on professional-quality official maps, with more yet to come. > * Jump pads, flak cannons, bricks, chains wrapped around your fists; made-in-house weapons that go beyond mere sidegrades, and dramatically change how you play the game. > * Extensive modding support, allowing players to customize the look of their game, and allowing servers to host advanced custom weapon packs and maps. > * A whole host of visual enhancements, including improved textures, models, mapping features, and restored toon-style shading that was mostly absent in the retail release. > * A chicken, or so we're led to believe

Actually, some games have DRM on steam and have a DRM free version on GOG. I even saw a game that had a DRM free epic and gog edition but the steam version had DRM. Might be a edge case, but still exists




Actually, the percentage of drm free games on Epic is pretty high, sometimes the same game will be drm free on epic and require drm on steam. Games that do require epics drm though can fuck off (especially since their is no offline mode). List


I’d recommend Brotato. It’s the same game style, but with a simplistic map and more complex upgrade system. Also it’s only five bucks


Don’t forget: Ability to see your library on the website


I just download the games that are drm free (which is actually quite a lot) and put a zip archive on my backup drive(s)

I don’t think that will restore the trust though

Nintendo is probably the most anti emulation company. They tried to make emulation completely illegal, they sued yuzu (the devs did some things that encouraged that) and made the devs pay a couple million and never develop emulators again. They are also the reason why dolphin didn’t come to steam as they wanted to sue valve if they allowed it on their platform. They also took down various tools that allowed one to rip your own switch games. I think they are for the second point
