Quest where I'm a clear "Good Guy"(TM) , not the BS stuff all the gamedevs like pushing where you have to chose between two bad options where both are murky. Dealing with consequences fine, dealing with them when the game forced you to between two badguy choices not fine. And they even get worse by hiding a bad behind good(unnatural consequences), either with dialog that goes out of wack or somehow linking doing good deads causes really bad things to happen.

So, I've been watching this game for many months, It then was dropped from GOG, came back. Saw it going on sale at other places, but never saw the price on GOG get to prices from the DRM versions. (My understanding is every other place but GOG is selling the steam version) I recall I could have bought the steam version for under $20($15?), and going to GOG and seeing $40...

It's been in cinematography and plays for years. Other science fiction ga

Sad, just plain sad. Think it stems from Fred/Paul ego more than anything. But I do believe Stardock was fishing for consent and licenses for IP for a reason. but still, can't believe the crap P/F pulled. I really wish there wasn't so much politics(and IP laws) in getting a game made. Creating some new is always based on old and existing.
