"wow, really, I see if my steam version is any better in the activation departments, but damn that suck bad. The funny thing is that i got a copy of The witcher form steam and it also give me a CD-Key that i have but i don't need to play it, or it alreadly active."

Ah, the witcher key is a little different as it only gives you access to patches and the stuff from the site. You can play fine without putting in the key. And also for the original version you had to be registered with the key on the site to download the uh.. enhanced edition update, I think. Could be wrong on this. But the thinking behind the witcher key is a little different than regular keys.

"Its just your opinion, which I am not taking seriously by that post."

Hehe. That's fine, it wasn't written in a very serious manner true.. but it's honestly how I feel. I don't really like to influence peoples' buying decisions anyway.. games are by and large personal preference and I know I love many terrible and buggy/flawed games many people would hate. This is partly the reason I stopped reviewing games, as my taste is somewhat particular and I didn't want to ruin it for anyone-- I don't know if I ever did, but the chance of it happening is pretty big when you're out there in print and on the internet. But yeah I just couldn't stop myself from writing a bit more after I was done with crying about the cd key thing. :)

God damnit. How is this possible, the activation servers aren't up yet? What the shit. Motherfuck. This drm assrape is getting worse all the time. It also makes you have the disc in the drive. Seriously, enough is enough. Have to go through bullshit activation and cd key ARGHHH. For what? The piraters are cruising. CRUISING.

Turns out I hate the game anyway. Haha. Awful narrow fov, shoddy inaccurate shooting and aiming, the game world feels tiny and claustrophobic, and empty, and dead. It just feels like a consolegame to play, this being a product of the fov and aiming and maybe the dumb drawn out animations for every press of the 'action' button I guess.. maybe something else, the mouse movement feels weird. If I could get this game to run in windowed mode I'd try to play it with a 360 controller, it's probably better like that. So, in conclusion.. this game is no good at all. Hope you console doods are enjoying this at least, this one's for you. No bullshit, just sit down and play the way it was meant to be played. PC gamers fucked in the ass again. God. Damnit. I hate you ubisoft. I really hate you. I'm really seriously pissed off.

Here's another review score to the pile; 2/5. Positive points are; nice stats screen, it keeps track of a bunch of stuff (it looks like the standard gta3 stat screen) and there's quite a few things to do if you're able to enjoy the gameplay experience.. also the enemies go down fairly quickly, no bullshit or drawn out shooting-- they drop at the headshot.

This review based on 10-15 minutes of gameplay. Rant over.

Love that they're adding new content/features to this so easily. That was something I really hoped for but wasn't expecting after having played it when it came out. Fantastic.

I already really like the game despite its obvious flaws and general clunkyness, but haven't actually tried it since that first "big" update. Finished a couple of games on small and large maps, easy and medium difficulty. I like how light this game is, so nice and easy to just boot up and play for a while.

I've been playing the game since it came out.. absolutely fantastic. It's HOMM as more of a real rpg. It's mostly about the battles, but you can actually do quite a bit of random crap in the game. The getting a wife aspect is just bizarre. Really funny and varied quests and units to get. Seriously this is my game of the year so far. It completely blows me away how much love has been put into this by the development team. Real love, like Molyneux was talking about.

"Nah. Like cyclonus said you mostly buy games alternatly from there. You don't run them on there. For example steam you can purchase GRID which is availible on pc anyway."

Steam is not the best example though since you actually do run the games from/through steam.

Oh right, didn't realise the console ones already were on there. I was more concerned with the PC ones anyway.

Steam, XBLA, Wiiware/VC, PSN, Gamersgate, Stardock Central/Impulse, Metaboli, Good Old Games, Gametap, Direct2Drive.. etc

There should be something added for these services, yes? Maybe sub-platforms heh. Or would this be too much like advertising, thoughts?

Yeah, it's missing from the company listing for now, but you can also find it on the help page. Scroll down to "Hey, I Noticed You're Missing [insert page], What's Up With That?" and click "Add a Company".

Ah thanks. Excellent.
