I don't know what it's called but when you click on a letter on the start menu it makes and index panel. Please make the font on the index panel a bit larger and arrange it in 4 even columns of 7 instead of 5 columns with 5 full rows and two missing from the sixth row. Index Panel Image

[quote who="borsook_bearro" reply="56" id="3405668"] Well, if all of this is such a problem for you how about you log out of steam? This is the root of the problem here, you left your account logged in. Of course there are other workarounds possible, I for one have all my saves hardlinked to a dropbox account. Of course I am not saying there is no need for improvement in the way steam handles this, there surely is.[/quote] This makes no sense. Someone noted their dislike o

[quote who="borsook_bearro" reply="44" id="3405578"]But how is that a problem? so a family member can use your computer and play your games if you don't log out...seems rather logical.[/quote] Except you don't get to pick what to share and what not to.

[quote who="borsook_bearro" reply="35" id="3405404"] When did you last run steam in offline mode? You do not have to specify in advance, it goes offline if your internet doesn't work. In the past there were problems with it, but not any more. At worst it is the same as disc in the drive protection, but a disc can break and some (like me) don't even have a disc drive anymore, it's an outdated mode of storing data...[/quote] Sorry I don't have the dates of my las

I really don't want a Steam version. While it is true Steam doesn't have to be DRM it usually is. It is possible to use Steam as a digital delivery platform only but almost no one actually does this. An easy test is: Can I install GalCiv 3 from Steam then UNINSTALL STEAM and have GalCiv remain and continue to function (although without automated updates). It is my understanding that a rare few games use Steam this way and then it really is just a digita
