It's a fantastic game. Glad it finally came to steam.
It's reminds me of The Settlers. I loved that game too.
I can't wait to see what else gets added.
I hope they make it so you can rotate the isometric camera, I don't like turning everything seethru to say lay a road behind a building.
Also hope they add the ability to zoom the camera in and out to some extent. Bit like you can in Prison Architect. Sometimes it be nice to zoom out and get a bit of a better view of whats going on.

I have had this game for many months. It suprised me alot. I didn't think I would like it.
I have spent just over 10hours so far with the game and find it very good.
There is soo much depth to this. Once I start I can't stop until I am dead, then I get angry and play something else lmao

From this you could of thanked him. or just ignored him but nooooo
You got tell us YET AGAIN your views on steam vs gog on DRM.
You keep trying to impose your point of view.
All I am doing is pointing this out to you, while admittedly showing that
the crud you say isn't entirely true.

Quoting: neffoIf you waiting to buy it on GOG for the DRM free version, then just buy the Steam version. It's already DRM free.This guy only tried to be helpful to you.

Quoting: HamishThe versions sold on Steam may be DRM free, but I still personally will not buy the game from Steam because I do not wish to support a distribution platform that provides a DRM service for developers to plug themselves into regardless of whether they chose to use it or not.This is what you do thread after thread after thread.
Keep in mind that Valve gets a 30% cut from every game sale on Steam, meaning that 30% of your money will end up going to a DRM distributor. GOG.com takes a similar cut, but with them I can have complete confidence that none of my money will go to the promotion of DRM systems.

It's a form of copy protection. Clearly DRM.
One could argue that it is a bad bit of game design aswell as being DRM.
I never did expect you would use Origin or Uplay either. Nor do I, because
it's not even for linux and none of the games on there are either.
You can try and twist it however you want, your money will likely have helped them supply more games with one of the most annoying forms of DRM ever made. It's right up there with some of EA, ubisoft and Microsfts DRM.
No DRM is good, but anything that can affect a proper customer negatively is the worst of all.
Also I own Pirates, it didn't stop me from buying it. As I would rather play games than hope that one day there will be a DRM free version.
I think it's totally fine that you steer away from DRM, that's your decision. I am just sick of seeing you spew crap on here about steam. Almost every article you have replied to has you talking some crap about it. You remind of a bible basher always trying to impose your views on others.

DRM is DRM so your not against DRM entirely just Steam.
Also once you know how to play the game your idea is shot out of the water.
This is a terrible form of DRM and always was.

Well Hamish pirates Gold Plus on GOG.com has a form of DRM
http://www.gog.com/game/pirates_gold_plus [External Link]
It requires you to look up answers to questions in the manual (supplied as .pdf)
if you accidentally answer the question wrong your game is ruined and you have to start again.
This sort of DRM is annoying, frustrating and troublesome unlike the DRM steam can provide.
So maybe you need to go buy games from somewhere else now. As GOG doesn't have you covered either.

They simply provide it for developers who wouldn't otherwise put there game on steam.
Your whole unrelated beef story is fascinating but totally unrelated and off topic.
Probably better we just agree to disagree.
At least until you show me a link of steam promoting DRM that you said you could provide.
With out that you just have made yourself sound like a misinformed crazy person.

The "beloved" part was a joke. Straight over your head I see.
You said steam promotes drm. The link you showed was documentation of their API, not promotional in anyway.
So give us a link showing steam promoting or even encouraging DRM. You won't find it. All they do is provide the possibility if a developer wants to use it.
