    I’ve seen stuff pulled from the steam store so it’s no longer available for purchase/adding to my library, but the ones I already added, even undownloaded, have always still been available in my library, even if the game was fully defunct.

      I’ve had my downloaded purchases from a humble bundle deleted from my PC after a couple days because the payment processor failed

        That’s a substantially different situation, I don’t see how you can reasonably equate Sony removing game data from people’s console post-purchase due to them no longer maintaining any servers to play on with Valve not letting you keep a game that was not properly paid for in the first place.

          I don’t see how a different situation has anything to do with it? You can make any judgement you like but the facts are the facts

            What facts? You’re comparing Sony manually removing game data from accounts that had legitimate ownership of it with Steam automatically reversing the registration of a game you didn’t pay for. I’m sure you’ve done some serious mental gymnastics to justify whatever grudge you hold over the situation, but it’s entirely apples to oranges.

            Those are the facts.
