Steam

A cloud-based PC gaming platform created by the game developer Valve. Designed to allow users to purchase, download, and play games linked to their accounts from any computer, without worrying about discs or limited installations. Also provides a community in which users can see games their friends are playing, give recommendations and reviews, and even create and share custom content for some games via the Workshop.

Being the first successful platform of its kind, it was initially riddled with bugs and had a poor reputation. In more recent years, it has become a celebrated staple of PC gaming.

Neverwinter Nights is being ported to Steam? Good, I'm tired of always losing the disk.

Dude, cool sword! Is that in the game?
Nah, I got it off Steam Workshop.
