Steam - and other digital game stores like it (GOG being the only possible exception I’m aware of) turn this whole relationship with our digital past upside down. In game you will have the option to register an account on our webpage. As a collector of old Macs, I can expect a copy of ‘Prince of Persia’ to run as well on a Macintosh LC running System 7.1 today as it did when it was released in the early 1990s. If I boot a Windows 95 machine and have the right hardware to play the Win95 version of ‘Tie Fighter’, it will run. In any case, now we have a new and somewhat unexpected issue: ‘What happens if Steam won’t run on my previously supported hardware - hardware that still runs the games I intend to play on it?’. This was rarely true of physical copies before they were locked down to online stores (the physical edition of Fallout 4 is hilariously a single DVD that essentially just provides a Steam code so you can download the game). In any case, there is a big question mark hanging over the status of our games if Valve were to shut down. This kind of defeats the purpose in many respects. ‘Offline mode’ is finicky and if I remember correctly, must first be set when you’re.online. Steam games require Steam to be running in order to launch. I’ve often asked the question: ‘What would happen to my Steam games if Valve were to suddenly go under?’. This is the kind of reckoning we shouldn’t be terribly surprised by, but it is disappointing nonetheless. A thread was recently posted on Steam's community forums complaining about the move as users would lose access to their game libraries if they don't upgrade.

We recently reported that several users of Yosemite had run into an iTunes upgrade bug that prevented Safari from launching. However, there still seem to be a number of users either unable or unwilling to upgrade. That puts the operating system at a little over three years old.

Mac OS 10.10 "Yosemite" was released in 2014 and was replaced by 10.11 "El Capitan" in September 2015. In addition, future versions of Steam will require macOS feature and security updates only present in macOS 10.11 ("El Capitan") and above. The newest features in Steam rely on an embedded version of Google Chrome, which no longer functions on older versions of macOS.

In order to continue running Steam and any games or other products purchased through Steam, users will need to update to a more recent version of macOS. This means that after that date the Steam Client will no longer run on those versions of macOS. Starting on January 1 2019, Steam will officially stop supporting macOS versions 10.7 ("Lion"), 10.8 ("Mountain Lion"), 10.9 ("Mavericks") and 10.10 ("Yosemite"). Steam recently announced that it will stop supporting macOS versions 10.7 ("Lion"), 10.8 ("Mountain Lion"), 10.9 ("Mavericks") and 10.10 ("Yosemite") on January 1, 2019.
