Comment on Steam Removed Forced Arbitration from Their Subscriber Agreementparent

I assume they don't provide any way to use the games you bought if you do this, and don't refund you either. How is that legal?

Not really, no.

Can I play games after deleting my account?
During the 30 days before account deletion, games that require a VAC server will not be playable. After your account is deleted, games that require a Steam account will not be playable.

People calling Valve a "good monopoly" and then they turn around and hold your games hostage when lawsuits get too sweaty. This is exactly why GOG is my first choice where possible. And ironically the very kind of thing that Wolfire was worried about in their lawsuit.
