I was able to play a heavily modded steam version just fine some 2 years back. IIRC none of the major mods have any issues with Steam. Well, none that I noticed

'This was on Vista.

SH5 stock is 'screwed up', I'll give you that. But modded and patched (with my generic patcher) it's an entirely different game

SH3 will run on Windows 7, at least it does on mine (Win 7 Ultimate 64bit)

I have tried and installed few more modern day (2004 and onwards in my books) PC games than I'd care to admit. SH V has so far been the only one I've never gotten to work in satisfactory stable fashion. Modded, Vanilla, lightly modded, heavily modded. Doesn't matter. Annoying, frequent yet dififcult to re-produce CTDs are the order of the day for me.

SHV is no more DRM.
UBI ditched the always-online-crap.
Buy it to support the bro's from Ubi-Romania!
