support the developers? that was the only reason I bought this game, I support developers who don't treat gamers like criminals. I also support developers who make games because they enjoy what they do, not so they can cash in on what ever movie just came out. This game was available on tons of torrents but I bought it just to make a point about good developers deserving our money, I also bought GalCiv1&2 for the same reasons. I mean it was amazing to install my game and not be asked to enter a CD key, heck I didn't enter my key till 6 hours after playing the game; and that was when I decided to join the forums.

Oh and it was also pretty awesome when I was sitting in my quantum mechanics lecture and decided to play some Sins only to realize that I didn't have the CD on me, then I looked all over for a no-cd thing but couldn't find one...turns out we didn't need a CD to run the game...it was at that point I realized that the developers truly started with the ideology of "how can we deliver the best experience" and this really shows not only in the game but in the little things outside the game like the fact that it runs without a CD ... as someone who plays games on a laptop I hate having to carry CD's with me, so often I'll just download the ISO of a game for the mere convenience of having it on the go.

So kudos to the developers for making something that doesn't frustrate us, except for when those frigates attack
