Not by my definition. Not in the same way as denuvo or dvd movie drm is.

It is in the sense that you can’t play the games without it.
magikmw@piefed.social 1 day ago
You can. Many of steam games you can just archive or copy over somewhere else and they’ll still work just fine.

And you can get a crack for most DRM out there (nowadays, even Denuvo).
That’s make it any less a DRM.

There are many, many DRM free games on Steam.
Stop spreading this nonsense. There are arguments against Steam, but until they require DRM to be on their platform, this isn’t one of them.

None of them are DRM free. Every game requires the Steam client to download, launch, and play. Stop spreading this nonsense.

Stardew valley is one example I know of. The developer didnt enable it so you can buy and install the game then copy the installed contents to other computers and run it without steam and play multiplayer all with the same copy. Steam can be closed or removed on all of them

Incorrect. DRM free games on Steam do not require the Steam client to be running to run them.
