I’m guessing Steam decided against being able to leave your games to somebody else when you die because of how most EULAs I’ve read work: they are often non-transferrable licence and so in most cases the store has no choice in the matter. Now GOG are willing to say they will do what they can given this limitation, but I can see why Steam wouldn’t: it’s a whole lot of work for realistically not much benefit. It’s probably easier for Valve to gift the same games over to the new person.

I think a death certificate and your will are enough. Only one of the two is probably not enough.
Wills aren’t required and not everyone will have one.
I think the best course of action is to have a trust set up and have all of your assets under the trust. That’s how my attorney set up my end of life tasks. It saves you problems with probate and taxes while also giving you flexibility if you want to change things.
How am I supposed to prove I am dead if I am dead? 🤔
I can just leave USB drives with all the offline installers in a box. Then I don’t have to prove shit!

How can I prove that I’m dead if I’m dead? The fuck?
Postmortem selfie with the boys.
No, anything but that.
I see what you did there.
What if I swear on god FR FR?
Out of the loop here… what’s GOG?
Competitor to steam, it’s selling points are DRM free games releasing old games in playable States for modern machines. They also sell contemporary games.
Ahhh. Got it.
Your answer in the form of a meme
gog.com (acronym of Good Old Games), an alternative store where you can buy DRM-free games.
Just leave your login information for the next of kin or whoever to use, no one will know any better.
And why is there a condition? Can’t gift the whole library to someone?
I’m not dead I just always look like this.
