6 years in development and $200 million later we get a bland, boring WoW clone. I give it three months after release before it goes free to play.

Quite a lot has changed, actually:

Hey everyone, just letting you know that another Public Stress Test Weekend is about to start! There have been numerous improvements and additions to the game since the last public weekend. I've been playing since June and what this tiny indie team from New Zealand has done has really...

lol @ people thinking the majority of files on MegaUpload are legitimate. MegaUpload was always shady as hell, and Kim Dotcom and his staff were fully aware that they were selling subscriptions to pirated content. Normally I would be against something like the MegaUpload takedown, but if...

Hence the rise of the "Collector's Edition". There's still awesome fluff, but now they just want you to pay for it.

Sorry I got my facts wrong, just checked the DVD now and it has Steam on it, but none of the box art mentions it. It's not Steamless, but it's a physical release, completely legit. It comes on 5 DVDs but still has you install Steam for product activation.
