Will the DRM affect your Purchase?

Von Manteuffel · 02-24-10, 09:01 AM

I do most of my game-playing on the road, via a totally beefed-up laptop. However, most of the hotels I stay in either don't have in-room internet access, or charge a hefty rate for it ( usually by the hour ). I'm not blaming the hotels. Internet access for business travellers is a saleable commodity, which most business people can claim as part of their expenses. But I won't, on principal, claim from my company for personal internet use.
So, I'm either not going to be able to play the game at all, or I'm going to have to pay extra each time I want to play it.

Sorry - It's just too much! Napoleon Total War, here I come. At least with Steam once you've registered you can ignore it.
