StingingVelvet: [Spiderweb stuff]
GameRager speaks truth. You want Geneforge DRM free you get it from Spiderweb and yes pay more (plus support the guy who worked very hard to make it happen at all), you don't mind DRM then get it elsewhere. I know you were trying to get around the DRM of one of Spiderweb's games about a week ago, and maybe that is why you are really steaming now, don't know.
In retrospect, life is too short to complain about the fact that you can get a game cheaper some place then another. I could have more of a gripe then you ever could on this matter man. I bought the Geneforge saga from Spiderweb about 3 or so weeks before it was released on Steam...And you know what? I'm not complaining. I'm happy I got the DRM free version, and supported the guy who made it, so that he can better continue to do so.
If it wasn't for his hard work there wouldn't be any games at all, and if he chooses to charge more on his site, well, it is his site, his games, his choice...and you know what, people who have the means and who really want to support him and his games, will buy it from him, yes for more money. Ultimately you have a choice in the matter, and I don't see the need to complain about having choices, or to ban buying his games.
You really won't buy from him because of that? Maybe you, in truth, don't even like his games enough to want to buy more as it is (unless they are super cheap and DRM free of course). I truly think if you really wanted his games you wouldn't mind so much that they are charged differently elsewhere. That's just my thinking though, and I have been known to not always be right.
