It was the reason I downloaded Steam, and back in those days I was pissed that I had the CD and the box and the manual AND they wanted me to go online and download more than a gig of data on my crappy dial up.
I got the game in the morning and I only got to play it later that afternoon… and I swore I’d never use Steam for anything else again.
Fast forward 20 years and probably a few thousand bucks later 🤦🏻♂️
Yeah, back then Valve was just a shitty publisher insisting on their own shitty DRM infested launcher.
