Cheers, did i read it right...SOW on steam?(its early and no coffee yet)

Yes Furbs SOW on steam, which makes sense I suppose, regarding the percentage of the finished game Oleg was saying the same last year and the year before so its hard to gauge where we are at.

steam is ok, i use it a lot. it auto patches which is really nice.
btw is there any change someone can save the images to some sort of library within this forum?

"As I said, the game will immediately support the steam. This condition of the publisher."

Not entirely sure thanks to google's translation here, but does this mean they already have a publisher?

Sounds good to me. Give me more time to complete my PC.

the only issue i have with steam is that you don't actually own anything you have on it... if the people that run steam want, they can cancel every single account on steam, and all the games everyone has are now gone, and because you accepted the agreement when you made your steam account, you can't do a thing about it...

where as if you have a physical copy of the game, one you can play without connecting to the internet at all, nobody can take it away from you without knocking on ur door, coming in, and taking it/smashing it, and then it would be illegal...

so personally, i'd only get a boxed version if i had the choice.

Steam?

Oleg will release a copy for standalone use. It just wouldn't make sense to release only through steam or direct download.

There are too many people in too many places of the world that don't have adequate internet connections.

Many persons will have high capacity computer systems, and there will be those that don't.

I wouldn't get myself worked up over the reference to steam. (suggestion)
