Have you seen MTG players? There's literally a site that tracks card prices like a stock market.
I'll give TCG's one iota of credit. If Hasbro goes bankrupt and shuts down, nobody can stop you and a friend from playing magic with the cards you have.
If Valve shuts down, or shuts down CS2, your and your friend's skins disappear forever and you have no way of playing with them again.
