    1. This is about future games, not current games.
    2. Yes, the legal requirement would (or should) mean after EOL absolutely no dependency on outside services unless the infinite availability of that service can be guaranteed, which is of course impossible.

    None of the currently existing services like Steam, Xbox Live, etc are technically needed to run the games. They offer additional services. Hence they are called services. But you do not need any of them to run the core games.

    I’m not advocating for developers to implement these services themselves. I’m advocating for the absence of these services not making my games unplayable. I’m willing to compromise for that to only be the case after support for my games was dropped.
