So skipping ones put out by companies whose policies annoy you either ethically or in terms of stuff they do that messes with the user experience is essentially cost free for the consumer, who has plenty of other games to buy. You can never play all the computer games out there. There isn't really a need for any particular company's games (contrast with, say, MS Office).

Not all games need a save backup, but it's best not to rely on Steam Cloud (and some games don't have it). This is the easiest fix I've found so far, that doesn't require the use of Protontricks or swapping Proton versions that could cause other issues (like a broken Proton Prefix) or anything else.
