Ask HN: Necessity of LLC for solo game dev?

I have a couple of games that I made as a hobby project over the years, and currently working on my next game. I was thinking about putting my current games on steam for a nominal fee, mostly to get some experience with that side of things. I am not expecting to make any money through this, but would like to be in a good position in case one of the games catches fire.

I'm concerned that releasing games under my own name may make me an easier target for frivolous lawsuits and/or scams, however I am also not sure if starting a LLC is worth it for something that I don't expect to make any money. Does anyone have experience navigating a similar situation?
