first of all its not steam that developed it. steam are simply the distribution network. so stop *****ing about how steam ruined the game because its the DEVELOPERS that screwed up.

Developer(s) Techland
Publisher(s) Deep Silver
Distributor(s) Valve Corporation, Square Enix (for North America),Spike (for Japan)

actually steam did ruin the game as it does every game.

and do you have any evidence on this? if not stop talk trash. cough up PROOF that steam ruin games. games for windows live ruin games not steam.

i have to say, im not a fan of steam either. if i pay for a game, full retail, not a pirate, i want to be able to play it on my computer whenever i want to. not be stopped by having to connect to them to verify it every time.

and i am afraid they are at fault. they are the distributors yes, but due to their assinine way of having to connect and update wether you want to or not, they dont allow you a choice. they are also the only actual point of contact for the game. ergo: they have to assume the responsibility.

and yes, it screwed up 2 of my alt saves, and repeated contact with steam (in which you laughingly have to open a seperate "Complaints" account) have proved fruitless.

So for sheer annoying, frustrating, time wasting, overly controlling and infuriating method of gaming control , i am going to have to say :

Yes... Blame Steam.

i'm just getting started with this game
