Few paragraphs down.

I hope the Steam version of MOTB will be compatible with my retail NWN2.

EDIT: It's only available to NA customers.

EDIT2: Gah, the link's outdated.

Because software is an idea, and because ideas cannot exist in the physical form, buying it digitally is no different than buying it physically.

So if a game you already have comes to Steam can you register it there and have it available digitally too?

Did you pay steam to give you free bandwidth to download the software? No, you're paying for the service to download the digital idea in this case. Software is just a thought, the cost is actually to cover the distribution and delivery. Duh!

do i have to be online before i play it, or some retarded shit like that?

The horror, the horror.

Actually having to be online to play a game? What a terrible idea, whoever thought of that should be shot.

:roll:

Last time I bought a game, the box and the manual and the DVD looked pretty physical to me.

Wow. I was lucky to get my copy from them when I did.

I think GoG will have it. It will be one of the first games they'll put up, that's for sure.

Your ignore list.
Steam is DRM. DRM is evil. Evil shall not take over my computer.

Also, would steam fix the camera? I think not.

Also, witcher is overrated. B00bies factor made it popular.

Any idea what happened to the steam releases for the NWN series? Announced way back in march, but no word since then (maybe waiting for SoZ or MoW releases?).

The thought that SoZ will probably precede MoW by a long time amuses me.
