Will SR 1936 be available on GamersGate, or is it Steam only? Thanks.

It is now on GG, but it is still bound to Steam parasite.
Waiting for Steam free version because I will immolate myself before I'll be forced to use Steam.

It's DRM-free, so...
right-click SR1936 and choose properties, pick local files and choose browse local files double click the sr1936 exe file, voila. Now shutdown the "Parasite", if you are smart you will make a shortcut to say your desktop from where you can run it without steam...

Re: GamersGate
Ewwww, we wouldn't want that. However, for now we're using Steam as the delivery platform because it allows us to push out updates and patches much easier than any other method. We now offer two "off-steam" ways to buy (the Humble Store Widget on our website, and GamersGate), though Steam (and a steam account) are required as the download method. Though once downloaded, as Hullu mentioned, you can set steam to offline mode or even avoid steam entirely with a desktop shortcut.Hakuren wrote:Waiting for Steam free version because I will immolate myself before I'll be forced to use Steam.

Have to buy from store, then I have to install 3rd party software to install it on PC, must use 3rd party software for all upgrades and finally I can't install game where I want. I do not permit any software on my PCs/servers which do what it wants, not what I want. Even Microsoft or TecDoc aren't that intrusive. $team is designed for [anti]social-network generation. I wouldn't have problems with Steam if it worked like e.g. Impulse Driven/GameStop*. Install, activate. End of story. No soft in the background, no forced decision making, no workarounds for "DRM-free software".
Tried twice learn to tolerate Steam rubbish. There won't be a 3rd time.

Expected that Battlegoat will pick the easy way, but kept microscopic hope that it will be done properly. So... unless something changes in the near future SR ended on ColdWar. Absolutely GUTTED.

I'm really regretting getting the Steam early access, would much prefer a gamers gate download.

Re: GamersGate
BG still hasn't given up on the non-steam version but it will be some time before that version appears if it indeed appears...
