Why would you need to play it without steam? You'd lose access to their servers and to steam cloud. The DRM only needs you to log in once a month, compared the the xbox one's pre-E3 restriction of once a day...

Some games on steam do not use the steam DRM. So those can be launched independently, I guess it's a choice the devs make. I have even launched CS:GO outside of steam. But in general I just use offline mode if needed. Never tried to actively disable steam...
Why not just play in offline mode????? I used to do this with a few friends for single player games. They wanted to play, couldn't afford, so I would just log into my account on their computer, download whatever games they wanted, set steam to offline, and boom, as many people as want can play offline games.

Most steam_api.dll errors are the result of missing or corrupt versions of the DLL file that was bundled with DEFCON. As a first troubleshootiong step, most PC professionals will attempt to replace the applicable version of the DLL file. Also, maintaining a clean and optimized Windows registry can help in preventing invalid DLL file path references, so we highly recommend running a registry scan on a regular basis.
Getting the steam_api.dll file location correct is critical in making sure these errors are resolved successfully, so it doesn't hurt to check to make sure. Re-open and test DEFCON to see if the issue has been successfully solved.
Open the file/game you bought (which I believe is a .zip), then find the steam_api.dll file. The reason you're having this problem is because when you extract the file, Windows automatically deletes the file, making the game not launchable. Copy the file and paste it in Downloads so you can retrieve it later. After that, extract the zip.
Now, select the steam_api.dll you pasted into Downloads from earlier and paste it into the unzipped folder (at the same place with the game executable). That should pretty much be it (worked for me, anyway).
Anyway, if everything went for you like it went for me you now have a working mono.For Terraria there are two options. Option 1 is download the game and try to runTerrariaServer.exe through mono. From what I've heard that won't fly on linux due to some things not being implemented properly yet. Guess that's why the linux port isn't out yet too ?Trying it out gave me this blurb:benv@tds:/terraria$ mono TerrariaServer.exe
Unhandled Exception:System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Game, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=842cf8be1de50553' or one of its dependencies.File name: 'Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Game, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=842cf8be1de50553'[ERROR] FATAL UNHANDLED EXCEPTION: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Game, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=842cf8be1de50553' or one of its dependencies.File name: 'Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Game, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=842cf8be1de50553'Well, no big surprise. I could of course go on a hunt and try to get all the missing pieces if possible (there are some mono xna libs out there), but I'm too lazy for that, since we have option 2.Option 2:Use TShock, found on This does have the notice that you'll have to wait a bit until they reverse engineer the patch though.TShock for Terraria 1.3 has not been released. The TShock Team will start reverse engineering and building the updated ServerAPI for Terraria 1.3 at 1:01pm EST on June 30th, 2015. When the update has been released, this notice will be disabled. No plugin updates will be approved until API version 1.18 is released, and plugin updates that ensure compatibility with 4.3 before 1.18 will be deleted.Anyhow, let's get it up and running so that when their new version comes out you can simply drop it in place ?benv@tds:/terraria$ wget -q _4.3.0_gm1.zipbenv@tds:/terraria$ unzip tshock_4.3.0_gm1.zipArchive: tshock_4.3.0_gm1.zip extracting: TerrariaServer.exe extracting: sqlite3.dll extracting: ServerPlugins/HttpServer.dll extracting: ServerPlugins/Newtonsoft.Json.dll extracting: ServerPlugins/BCrypt.Net.dll extracting: ServerPlugins/Mono.Data.Sqlite.dll extracting: ServerPlugins/MySql.Data.dll extracting: ServerPlugins/MySql.Web.dll extracting: ServerPlugins/TShockAPI.dllbenv@tds:/terraria$

Possible solution 1: As of lib32-openal version 1.18.0-1, the game crashes instantly. The possible solutions are to downgrade lib32-openal to 1.17.2-1, or to start the game with LD_PRELOAD='$HOME/.steam/root/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/i386/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libopenal.so.1'.
Possible solution 2: Launch steam as steam-native as described in #Steam native runtime. If the game still fails to launch even after installing the steam-native-runtime meta package, then you might be missing some libraries. You can find those missing libraries as described in #Debugging shared libraries.
If the game appears as Running, then syncs and closes when you launch it from Steam, try creating a steam_appid.txt in the game directorycontaining 261640. This should resolve the issue and let you start the game directly from the game directory. If that does not work, try using the steam-native-runtime.
Either run with steam-native, launch option LD_PRELOAD='/usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6:/usr/lib/libbrotlicommon.so.1:/usr/lib/libbrotlidec.so.1' %command%, and go to Properties > Compatibility, check "Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatiblity tool" and select "Steam Linux runtime".
The launcher often shows errors like Error loading page. It is possible to bypass the launcher by editing the games startup configuration /.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Sid Meier's Civilization VI/Civ6 and changing the line ./GameGuide/Civ6 to ./Civ6Sub. 2ff7e9595c
