Comment on Sony doubles down. Only responds to their investors, not the consumers. I've never bought a digital console title. That will continue.

  You want the Goldberg Emulator which is basically a replacement for the steam_api DLL that lets you play those games offline.

  Mind you, not all games using Steam DLL will work with it, but many if not most will by just replacing the game’s steam_api DLL with the one from the emulator.

  You could use something like SteamAutoCracker (SAC) or Goldberg, both are available on Github. A lot of smaller indie games don’t have any DRM, so you can play them without steam or on another computer once you’ve copied the files. For games that have 3rd party DRM like denuvo, you’re better off just downloading a cracked version of a game if it exists, since that DRM is borderline impossible to remove on your own
