“if you can obtain a copy of a court order...we’ll do our best to make it happen" Unlike Steam, Good Old Games claims they are willing to transfer accounts to entitled parties after a user's death (x.com)

You always need some kind of proof of death. I assume a death certificate would be enough

A death certificate is very much not a court order. A death certificate is often available to anyone who wants to demonstrate that someone is dead.

It'd be like using mailing address as proof of identity. Someone's mailing address is in some ways less public than their death certificate.
