Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying the whole DRM thing is a good one, but for my part, I'm gonna wait to read some in-depth reviews & comments here by credible members before making a decision about whether or not I buy the game.

Sorta puts a big Kibosh on the entire "pre-buy" thing...don't it?
Why anyone would "pre-buy" a PC game is beyond me, anyway. "Support the developers"? Support their bad habit of releasing unfinished BS, maybe. This entire DRM thing lends much more creedance to my phylosophy...I don't spend a dime on anything, until it is working and working the way I expect it to. Patches and updates are things for the unfortunate souls who buy into the entire "support the developers" myth.
When and if I ever pay a dime to have SHV...it will be a completely patched up and DRM free version, with all bugs worked out as much as they are willing to fix. If that version is not acceptable, by listening to you users, then I will gladly continue my SHIII+GWX campaigns and not miss SHV a bit.
I will rely on all the poor people who pre-bought SHV to give the rest of us the real "skinny" on how it's working and the progression of the "patches".
I gotta say it..."I told you so!"
