Steam makes it super easy to get games but installing it is friction?

I am a gamer with an interest in the indie sector but don't have steam because my first experience with that extra platform abstraction - Origin - has put me off. Neither do I want a game as a web page. I want a gaming experience and that for me is still a standalone executable. I even dislike not having a physical copy of digital distributions.




In the end isn't it just about having fun? Whatever format is most efficient for the developer to deliver fun, let them run with it.
