What Hacker News says

2 sources
https://github.com/inflation/goldberg_emulator#but-it-breaks... > It doesn't break any DRM. If the game has a protection that doesn't let you use a custom steam api dll it needs to be cracked before you use my emulator. Steam is a DRM as much as any API is a DRM. Steam has actual DRM called steamstub which can easily be cracked but this won't crack it for you. That being said looks like steam themselves don't consider their DRM to be very useful https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/features/drm > The Steam DRM wrapper by itself is not an anti-piracy solution. The Steam DRM wrapper protects against extremely casual piracy (i.e. copying all game files to another computer) and has some obfuscation, but it is easily removed by a motivated attacker.
