Well, I'm just happy that they can't remotely delete the game from my PC's drive if they do choose to unsell it. Unless they can with EULA clauses like "We reserve the right to remotely access and update the Product at any time" in which case, Fuck

    Fairly sure steam has sufficient access to your system to do just that to the games it installed.

    Even if they can't, the publisher can always just push an update that makes it unplayable.

    I'm pretty sure they can require an update before launching, and you have to be online every once in a while to play games on steam at all.
