Just installed RE, and noticed that Galaxy had been installed, too (I never had Galaxy on my PC before, and I don't want to use it). And when I launched the game, it went through Galaxy first.
How comes? Why is this not mentioned in the game description?
It's not really a big deal: I uninstalled Galaxy (and blocked access to Galaxy via my firewall), and the game started nonetheless. But why perform a hidden installation of Galaxy in the first place, and why don't launch the game directly?
It's against all computer ethics (and against some other rules as well) to install software without the users permission, without even telling him in advance?
A promotion exercise for Galaxy? No, I'm joking - I think it's obvious that such an attempt to promote Galaxy would backfire.
