Devolverland Expo is DRM-Free

Tested on win10 64bit
As much as I'd love to buy Velvet Assassin on gog, I'm afraid it won't arrive here in the near future. Did anyone try the Steam version if it is drm free there?

Half-Life, presumably still DRM-Free at Steam, is currently free, but that runs out today (20th).

Wrong, Half-Life 1 has never been DRM-free on Steam and I doubt the new update changes that (have to test this though). Only the retail version is DRM-free after patches.

edit: yep, it's still DRMed.

Can't you just run HL1 with Xash3D Engine/Port?

Yes, that works.

Oops it appears I misremembered, and only the Half-Life 2 variants are DRM-Free Lite.
