But steam some track record for keeping game. Game removed from store (like rocket league) still in library.

Yes but if Valve goes bankrupt (unlikely today but the winds may change), imagine the amount of backlash caused by people not being able to download "their" games since the servers would have been sold.

No need imagine. Look at wii store down, 3ds store down. People hate it. Also backlash to who? Steam? They dead. Industry? Maybe do impact a little.

Really hope steam at least patch out steam server require to play if they die.

Steam apparently has a backup plan in case of a looming bankruptcy. But they never elaborated on what that is.
