Is this for real? I'm able to go to the folder on my hard drive and launch steam games without opening steam.
Steam has a drm system, not everything uses it though
GOG once did enforce the use of DRM-free executables, but (as far as I understand it) once they expanded their store to include modern AAA titles, some of the bigger game companies refused to follow that rule so they dropped the requirement.
This is wrong.
There's only one game on GOG that doesn't offer DRM-free installers, and that's their live service game Gwent.

And that contradicts my statement... how exactly?
