I have to agree, I bought and downloaded both the original SoaSE and Entrenchment through Impulse, and it was painless. I just patched them both this last weekend, and that was also painless. If this is the future of computer gaming (or even console gaming), I am all for it.
I have seen quite a few more posts complaining than praising this new system, and I just felt that this was a particularly relevant post, and that I needed to express my positive reaction to Impulse and IC in general.
Thanks for a great game!
