Giving a cookie is a form of agreement, not disagreement [e digicons]:P[/e] Apologies for the confusion My bad. ^_^ But still, there's plenty of folks like that, even on this forum.
You *are* getting a finished product, not renting. You buy Sins, install it, you've got a finished game. It works. Sure, it's not perfect, there's room for improvement, but when I bought my original copy of Sins I played it for weeks, and loved it, without ever thinking about downloading Impulse and patching it that way.

You, sir, get a cookie. [e digicons];)[/e] Really? Seriously? So you just want everything for free, basically is what it boils down to. You don't want to have to pay for anything, and you want somebody else to do the work, and not earn anything from it.

You're just getting pissy because you couldn't play for a few hours. If I were Stardock I wouldn't want your business anyway.
