The change was delayed and has not yet occurred. We have heard nothing since. If you don't want to use steam to operate the game then yeah you'll not be happy about this change.

That's why some of us steam users, who do exactly what you do, are asking for a key exchange or just the option to rebuy the game on PC for our account. You currently cannot own a PC / Steam version on the same account. You would have to make a new account and start the game over to escape steam if you needed to.

The main reason for the thread is also the fear of the issues that Steam has had in forcing other games to do this. If you go back and read a lot of the thread you'll see what i'm talking about.

Edit: Oh man i'm slow, sorry for the slow reply Granyala lol
