Adding to what Webster said, there will be many who will buy the game, and they will talk about it. What you do is up to you.

I would politely ask that you start using punctuation in your writing, though. It makes it much easier to read.
Thanks Sailor Steve, I voted for punctuation too....

I don't have nearly information about the game to even begin to think about buying it or not. The actual facts of how the game series is improving are very few and far between. All we know is that the scope has been narrowed to TypeVIIs, until 1943, and you can traverse about the entire submarine in first person.

I'm going to need a demo and/or a review from a trusted source before I'll consider it.

As people have said, gotta make up your own mind. I for one will not buy...I will wait for people to post their impressions...if they have dumbed it down, I definately won't buy....want to send a message to the developers in my own small way (and the only way I can vote BTW...). If they haven't dumbed it down and it is ok..I will still think long and hard about buying it...I might support those who are against the internet connection....it's not as if we won't have other choices in the negre of simulation (SoW coming...NTW in terms of strategy about to hit us etc...)

And I'm just the opposite. I will certainly buy it just to see first-hand how it plays. But I absolutely will not buy it as long as the "IT tool which is not to be named" is in place.

It's always better to experience something yourself than to just rely on what others are saying. People are too different in their opinions, likings and dislikings - one player of SH5 might say a feature stinks, while another player actually loves that particular feature. There will be many pros and cons on everything, and the only way to find your personal pros and cons is to experience the game all for yourself. You can then discuss your thoughts with others, but you can't discuss something you don't know anything self-experienced about.

well in my opinion, do your own thing.

if the DRM isnt a big deal for you then buy the game

if you like the game buy it, but forget about this notion of "if everyone doesnt buy it" stuff unless trying to take part in stopping DRM matters to YOU.

if you had real issues with the DRM working or were worried about not getting or being able to afford the connection fees then waiting would make sense.

weather you do or dont buy it wont matter, what does matter is how YOU view it. if you want to make a stand against DRM then do that but if you are on the fence with this DRM thing then one sale more or less wont make a difference.

FWIW I'm another one of those who say "it's your money, do what you want." If I'd just spent six hundred and fifty dollars on upgrading my machine I'd be wanting to push my investment to the limit too. Do you play flightsims? The new game from the developers of IL2 looks like it'll benefit from a beefy machine.

I won't be buying SHV as it stands, largely due to the DRM but also I don't think my current machine will even run it!
