im sad that the devs of my fave game ever (FA) are facing the music. unfortunately wildman doesn't really appeal, and having already pledged for PA and star citizen, i just hope that others are keen enough to keep GPG afloat.

christ people like to whinge about big bags of fucking nothing, lol.
steam is a monopoly because it came first and remains the best. customers created steam's dominance, not valve. freedom of choice in action.

[quote who="Draakjacht" reply="21" id="3121877"] Yes, he bought the game prior to Steam, thus with the understanding that it was unnecessary. Later they made it necessary. He did not agree to this when the monetary transaction transpired. That is a logical argument. [/quote] and i find that argument fair enough. i was commenting on the general steam hate. which is silly. some gamers need to move with the times, it isn't 1990 any more. steam is a huge part of the reason we'
[quote who="GoaFan77" reply="20" id="3121875"] That doesn't bother you? Sweet, I'm going to get Stardock to change their forum user agreement without any notice to allow them to share all of your information on file with my "very reputable" company to sell your data to the highest bidder. And no, I'm not suggesting Steam would do this, but being in any contract against ones wishes shouldn't be taken lightly (even if in this case it might be justified). Maybe y
[quote who="swordguyj" reply="5" id="3121205"]i am sorry i have to agree. there is a lot of stuff i hate about steam and i am a bit peeved that i now have to have my forged alliance go through steam. and don't tell me i haven't tried steam enough. it is because of the items i have through steam that i bear my dislike of steam. now i have and still buy ocationally through steam mainly things that are at least 75% off or more to be worth me puttin
[quote who="Tasunke" reply="9" id="3121403"]Oh jee, they just had to terminate it without any warning ... and you still trust these people? [/quote] there was a warning. pay more attention.
[quote who="Wintersong" reply="12" id="3121530"] Your attitude is so typical, it's nauseating. [/quote] typical of what exactly, somebody that stopped wishing it was 1990 again? move with the times kids.
[quote who="Fistalis" reply="11" id="3121478"] I provided you with a fully logical and rational reasoning [/quote] no you didn't. you made some stupid comment about being in a contract with a third party against your wishes. it ultimately makes no difference whatsoever, but the irrational steam hate will continue im sure.

[quote who="Fistalis" reply="3" id="3121127"] Even the original Sup Com from Impulse now requires steam. [/quote] can't speak for installation because my copy of FA is still installed. but FAF runs its own match-making service for which you definitely don't need steam.

not that i support irrational steam hate, but you could check out FAF for all your forged alliance needs: http://www.faforever.com/
divinity 2 was the most impressive surprise i've ever had in gaming, so definitely keeping an eye on this.
[quote who="Fistalis" reply="9" id="3119976"] See I own sup com.. played through it like once.. and didn't really like it.. so IMO thats not exactly high accolades. Glad I bought it on sale for like 10$ and didn't pay full price. [/quote] if you were playing the campaign you were doing it wrong.
best rts since supcom imo. loving it. cant wait to see what they have in store for next week.
why are so many americans so paranoid? the idea that RFID chips would become mandatory is ridiculous. or used to track the populace? haha. stop listening to alex jones you muppets.
i've been keen on this game since it was first announced. my biggest concern is the combat. how well does it translate to mouse/keyboard?
[quote who="kryo" reply="26" id="3017473"] It'll only remain rare so long as there's enough competition that losing customers because of it remains a possibility. They've already shown their colors, and if they get monopolistic control, things certainly won't get better for consumers.[/quote] And to stop this "monopolistic control", stardock sold out to a retail giant who are in the midst of creating their own monopoly. way to go fighting the good fight! at least
Haha I love it when people portray their own inexperience with a game as "X has OP everything!". Just play more, sheesh.
These restrictions have always been set by publishers. They attempt (rather vainly) to segregate their markets so people in X country can't get bargains from deals available to Y. D2D is full of these restrictions.

i believe everything written on the internet.
Not a fan of in-game ads but dont really care in deus ex. kinda fits the world imo. as long as they're billboards or other parts of the game i can choose to ignore, i doubt ill notice anything.
[quote who="ZehDon" reply="1" id="2978705"]RAGE has my attention because it's from id Software, and they always deliver the goods [/quote] yeah, this is my opinion too. wolf was the game that finally made me save my $ and abandon console gaming (though doom was out by the time i had enough cash!) and iD havent disappointed me yet. people criticise doom 3 but it still scared the shit out of me (even though it was rather predictable). probably still be playing deus ex when rage come
[quote who="AgentExeider" reply="6" id="2965285"] Anything not backed by a material good, such as gold, silver, platinum, alpaca wool, etc. is Fiat and there fore subject to inflation, manipulation and fraud. [/quote] oh yay, another internet "fiat money is the devil" clown. gold backed currencies were a spectacular failure (remember the depression?) and have a contractionary bias. there is no sensible reason to back a currency with anything. your insinuation that commodit
lol, 10 years and idiot conspiracy theorists still haven't managed to work out 911. all sareth's claim regarding his "intel" experience illustrates is that there are morons in all job descriptions. 10 years and still repeating known fallacies. it was probably numpties like him on watch when the terrorists slipped through the US' intelligence fingers.
