i know steam is supposed to keep the game "up to date at all times" and that could interfere with mods.

the problem is..
at Direct 2 Drive i could get the game (+ U-boats [...]) for 27 dollars, but, and i quote "This bundle is only available for purchase in the United States, Canada and Mexico."

and where i live... I'd have to pay the whooping amount of 145ar$ for SH4 *alone* then I'd have to add U-boats [...] witch would probably mean an extra 50ar$... that, in dollars would translate to... a little less than 65 dollars.

now, if i get it though steam I'd have to pay a little over 27 dollars.

See what I'm getting at?
