As a single, offline player, there is no reason for me to be required to install Steam's malware client, even for "one-time activation." Of course, there's no reason for anyone to install info-grabbing, ad-pushing, resource hogging, buggy malware either, but that's another subject...anyway, great looking game, Id. Too bad you jumped into bed with the devil. If there's a no-Steam option, let me know, and I'll happily buy your game.

As this is a topic of discussion in several sections here we have opened a http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1230571-unofficial-steamdrm-discussion/ to keep the conversation together. You're welcome to re-post this in there if you wish.
