Not every game on Steam has DRM, let alone a server dependency.
Steam is naturally a DRM. Offline mode works for I think a month before you're locked out of your games.
Not all. Steam has DRM that developers don't have to use. Once the game is downloaded, it may not even check with Steam again to see if you own the game, even letting you launch the game when Steam is closed or uninstalled. It's not inherent to all Steam games.
Apologies, you are correct. In that case you are right.
