Lol, i wonder if this guy is a pirate. Not saying you are but many pirates come on and say this on other sites.
Would i have a metaverse profile if i were one?
btw, do YOU have one??!?
Not that Stardock pays much attention to pirates, but that just hands them the game on a silver platter. The archiving functionality works pretty well, and I suspect this will be the method they continue to use.Just like some other popular electronic delivery system...-HM
I am able to install GCII Gold and keep it on my HDD and play it with full functionality without any need of a CD. If i only want to play it a few days and then let it rot on my HDD i would borrow it somewhere, install it and never bother buying it.
But having a legitimate key gives me the ability to profit from the excellent support SD provides for its customers. I never have seen anything like this - this forum just give us gamers the ability to interact with the programmers in the process of development and upgrading and we can give our feedback directly to the people that count. This absolutely does justify the price i paid for GalCivII + all expansions. I just wanted to have some physical media i can come back to and maybe make my own design for - i am just a bit materialistic you know
And i do not really know where the point is - there is just a small difference between being a pirate, buying the game, getting it shipped and make your own iso and being a pirate, buying the digital game, downloading the iso and having not to start your burning software. I do not really see the point why legitimate buyers should not be able to create their own physical copy of the game.
But of course i will respect what Kryo said. too bad...
