I'd like to get back into playing video games, but I don't want to have to sign up for an online service like Steam or Ubisoft Connect.

I love technical sandbox games like Scrap Mechanic, especially if they have a "creative mode" that allows me to just make stuff.

If you're worried about DRM then look at GOG.com - they sell DRM free games, and you can download the installers direct from their website if you don't want to use their client and want permanent backups. The installers are not online either. I have a large library of classics and new games from them.

I came across GOG just the other day. Looks great!
