Depends on the game, factorio is available both on steam and as a direct download (in fact, devs recommend purchasing on their site and transferring to steam if you want) and you can just click the factorio executable to start the game. Now KSP2? That's the second thing by far
Factorio is the shining example of doing things right in the gaming industry, IMHO.
