Doesn't exist.

Objectively false.

You're wrong, thanks for trying.

Lol dude I know you can play most steam games offline. I would know, I spent nine months playing games with my gaming PC up in the mountains with no internet connection. The rules to play them offline are simple. One, you have to have booted up that game once before with internet. Two, the developer needs to not require internet to play their game. I think in the nine months I spent without internet the only game I couldn't boot up were call of duty games and maybe one or two more out of like 100+ games. Then probably several months in I needed to borrow someone's cellular hotspot once to boot steam.

Did both. Whatever it DL'ed during setup was online obviously. And because HL2 was a SP game there's no reason it should demand a connection. So you guys can make all the excuses in the world, but it's not gonna change the fact that Steam is hot garbage. I wanted to play a game I paid for, it wouldn't let me, and you've pretty much heard the rest. Steam is a big reason why I moved to consoles and prefer discs. No trust.
