I own Morrowind on Steam. As in I already am a legal Morrowind owner. I have no computer of my own though. I am not a tech savvy person, I was not tech savvy enough to run Windows Steam on Wine. [I have an Android S6 but my computer died over a year ago.]
Question: Should I consider buying Morrowind on GOG? Could I download it directly to my phone without requiring a computer if I had GOG Morrowind?
Thanks in advance if anyone has any advice.
I own MW but can I download with no PC???
Re: I own MW but can I download with no PC???
Now that does seem like quite a nice challenge. I'm sure it's at least possible, as it's been done on the Raspberry Pi.

I'm still going to look into how to run steamcmd through Qemu on Android, but it may not be easy to reproduce.

That might indeed be difficult to do with Steam. Steamcmd is a thing, but it may not be the easiest to run on Android, based on what Jodiwe said above me. I have no idea what to do about that, I haven't dealt with Steam in ages honestly.
I do know, though, the GOG offline installers can be downloaded to anything with internet access and a place to store them, so that should work. You'll need something to extract the files from the installer, though. A quick web search shows an application called Inno Setup Extractor is available on Android, and it should work, since it uses the same thing I used to extract the files from those exact installers on Linux Mint.
