I don't hate steam, it's just that it's kind of incompetent at times. Is there a version that I can buy that doesn't feed through steam servers? I've looked it up, but I haven't found an official non steam version. Am I just wishing for something that doesn't exist? Are all copies steam-infused?
Is there a non steam version of this game?

Yes all the save data rubs through Steam. that's why when Steam goes down everyone on whitelisted servers has level 0 perks in kf1

TWI are Steamworks developers. They aren't going to make a PC game that doesn't require Steam. Steam does a lot of stuff for them on the backend. It helps with stat tracking, server browsing, friends list integration, achievements, cloud saving, etc. This is why I personally hate it when a game doesn't use Steamworks features.

I don't even buy PC games if they aren't in steam.Well there is few games but they are in origin(Even tho origin is ****).
With an example like Steam, how did Origin end up so bad? Horrible

The problem with making a non-Steam version is that they would have to cut a lot of features, essentially making two different versions of the games. Given all the ways it will make use of Steam, I'm not sure why you'd want it without it anyway. Steam might not be 100% reliable, but I certainly haven't encountered many problems. Once in a blue moon I can't connect to Steam because it's down but that's usually a brief period of time.
