Even if Steam does end, the files of the games still go to your folders and programs, where you can open them from their. I don't believe that Steam is entirely required to start games from program folders. If they do end, they will probably make the files independent and will shut down Steam Cloud syncing. Though, Steam will probably never shut down, so with the Steam Cloud, all game saves are still there even if the game is uninstalled.
