Why is the game like this? Why isn't it all just downloaded through Steam?

Why did you bother with the 3rd party and now download the game directly?

>noo, you have to do simultaneous push into steam version control
The reason they don't do that is that the game existed prior to steam, and they have their own system to push patches whenever a new build comes out. This allows them to deploy patches with very minimal interruption to the player.

It's beyond reasonable, and you should be thankful they even made a steam release for your retarded ass if you don't understand what's going on. You're essentially complaining when you're the one receiving an additional service in the first place.

Why are you defending this? The corporation isn't your friend. There's zero reason the full game shouldn't be downloadable from Steam.

Because this is completely reasonable in this instance. It's to the point where you're either retarded or trolling and it's no skin of any sane person's back when you choose to be this stupid. The Steam release is an additional service added way later into the game's life.

I >>718283995 am not defending your retardation. Steam is retarded. If you don't get your shit from the source, you a lesser individual.

Trust me, you want it working that way. Arena Net somehow has by miles the best way of file distribution. It's the one thing I wish became standard in the industry.
