      That’s my point… it literally doesn’t matter that they can revoke you license or not, when the servers are down, you’re fucked regardless.

      Hence why it’s a pointless argument to bring up…

      What else do you think I meant here?

        But you don’t need to download it again. Keep good backup practices and it’s eternal. If you lose it, that’s the same as losing a physical object you bought at a store. Or if you don’t maintain your backup like you would clean and maintain a physical object you bought, it’s your fault you lose it. I can buy a game from GOG right now and keep it and use it until the day I die, then my grandchildren can use it after that.
