Stream gets a clear "dislike" from me!
Well, i don't like it either, but in all fairness there was ample warning about this on the forums here and some massive debates. The main positive thing about steam is that it gets the game some increased exposure and a better split of the price for 1c.

At least it works in offline mode and most of the fluff can be disabled, leaving the relatively minor annoyance of having to run an extra application before you can launch the sim.

Don't get me wrong, i don't hate it on principle "just because" and it hasn't given me any real trouble even though it's totally new to me, i just don't want extra layers of dependencies on my gaming simply on a "just in case" basis.

holy f+++ sh+++! I already broke it to you! The OP always talks of "Stream". That's like Steam, but with an additional 'r'. Stream != Steam; it's like a redneck mistake, like talking with a heavy lisp... its. ehh...got it now?. I joked about it. It didn't work at all, no one got it. I had to explain it. Twice. Sad, sad day today
