My friend had asked me to play his game and gave me a key. I was like sure thanks, since it's free and all.
I tried to download it from steam website, but it seems I need to download some third party DRM software to even download the game through it (kek).

Do vavlecucks go though this every time? Were going through this all these years?

Then the download box popped out for this steam client for me. No thanks, lmao.
