I just really want to pass on my game library to my kids one day. Can licenses be passed on, or is inheriting entertainment just dead now?
According to the EULA, no. According to common sense, leave the steam password in your will and you're fine.
If i remember correctly, gog allows this
Buy from GOG, download and archive the installers yourself.
