Ubi, EA, EPIC, GOG, not so much, but Steam would break my soul.

Hopefully they would give the opportunity to download owned games. If so, losing Steam would suck.
If not, it would likely mark the end of my PC gaming hobby, period.

pretty sure the whole point of GOG was if it shut down your games would still work
also why I buy games on there instead of steam unless i plan on modding or its a lot more expensive.

Depends if I was unable to buy them again.

It would hurt, but probably 85% of my library is games I've either never touched or have maybe 15 minutes in it. So it will be mixed.

Steam getting fricked sideways would be pretty devastating to pc gaming.
Between that and rising component costs, I think it would push many out of the hobby.

I would be more or less here. Maybe play some nostalgic games at GoG?

Not at all. Other than some Jackbox games for virtual work things, my entire Steam library is free games. I like having physical media.

About half of my games are from GOG, because they had a sale at the right time or because I wanted the game to be available even if I was offline.
Losing Steam would suck, but I'd still have a pretty decent library of games to occupy my time.
