I have a fucking painter coming to paint my bathroom thursday and possibly also friday. Oh well.

So I can already access the game manual through Steam. Is there any other digital content already accessible?

Whoa get a load of this fuckin' guy, got a bathroom so big it takes two days to paint.

actually my bathroom isn't big. one day for prep work, one day for the actual painting of it... I assume.

 

[Ivan]

Got my key

 

[DosBuster]

alright, my love goes to anyone who knows how to decrypt the pre-loaded files.

 

[Apexeon]

So how do you get your key?

I have been living under a heap of cask wine cases.

Have they announced boxed copies outside of the KS campaign?

Physical > digital, yes there are normal box copies



I will relieve my 90's experience once again, put a disc into the drive and install the game, but steam will pull me back to reality.

 

[CrimsonAngel]

If it makes you feel any better, maybe it's like other Paradox published games and you won't need to to have steam running once you've validated the install. I can play Crusader Kings 2 w/o steam running at all.

99% of games don't need Steam running but he meant that the whole game will not be on the DVD. He will still need to download day1 patch before Steam will let him start the game.
