The best suggestion anyone could give here is to seek out professional help because this question is way way way too big and serious for the likes of Lemmy.

That’s incredibly tragic. I might still be single, and I’ve dated some beautiful women, but none of them wanted to hurt me.

If you or your son ever want a slightly simpler option, I recommend this. It has been a game changer for me personally.

Also, they can still offer the olde versions of the file for download.
Except in a lot of cases they really don’t.

But if they keep it updated for modern systems that means as time goes on the files they are offering to install… won’t work on old hardware because they’ve been updated to the modern era.
Sure if you grab a file from them snd never get a newer, more maintained version, it will play on exactly the hardware and software you had when you bought it… But if you lost the install file somehow and went to grab a new copy five years later the updated ones may no longer run on your old hardware

They keep a bunch of 32-bit libraries for backwards compatibility with older games that they launch. You can find numerous discussions about this in the Steam forums as well as on sites like Hackernews.

GoG also famously uses a model where GoG does not care what OS you’re using.
I could have sworn their model was keeping old games updated to work functionally on newer hardware.

The entire back-end has changed.
Literally. People miss the fact that Steam is still a 32-bit app just to support older games. The rest of the world has moved onto 64-bit operating systems and applications. It’s shocking they still support 32-bit in 2025.

I don’t necessarily agree with all of Kaldaien’s points, but I can’t say they aren’t well argued. Their opinions are valid if you’re willing to accept and consider their perspective.
I personally don’t see the point playing games on the original hardware, and I think keeping them updated for modern systems is a good thing, but I can see why someone might disagree and prefer running them in a VM on a traditional operating system, especially in terms of keeping the original way the game ran intact. I also disagree about the value of Microsoft’s game rental service, but I also see the value in saying “if I don’t actually own my games anyway, why not take it to it’s logical conclusion of just renting them.”
As I said, their points are well argued, even if I don’t necessarily agree on them.
