"This is a place for those who have a moderately large collection of removed games (games no longer available for purchase on steam) to gather. For most, this group will just be about the name, showing off that you own what others no longer can. For others, it can be a resource to find what you once believed could no longer be found."
I bought my 2 yo a copy of Rocket League when they announced it would only be available through Epic (no Linux support) once it went F2P, just in case he was going to get into it. Best game in the world, but I'm not subjecting myself, or my kid, to Windows and the Epic store just to get at it.
