I didn't think the Stardock games needed the Stardock client running when you play the game?
(I'd check but it's been a few months since I played GalCiv and I deleted it just the other day to save space.)

The average TV is much bigger then the average monitor.
The next study will involve rust monsters and gelatinous cubes.

Wow, I think that's the first time I've done a spelling/grammar flame on Slashdot and the other guy didn't get annoyed and defensive and look like an idiot.
2 thumbs up.
Unjust?
Relax, it's just slashdot.
Well, outside of slashdot user-base ( the users of slashdot are primarily composed of higher educated, much more computer skilled users, whom, can do more with there computers in a day than most people in a week ) the SysRq key is a key of use. as for the rest of 99.44% of people it's a non-issue
Anyway, most of the users of slashdot would know to custom build there own developmental workstation platform and would order that specific type of keyboard.
it's wonderful to see that the users here battle it out for keyboard layout preferences.
heck if I was a manufactureR of anything related to computers, I would first spend a month researching slashdot just to find idea's and trying to fill them.
The spelling and grammar mistakes are intentional, right? Some kind of ironic trollbait in a post talking about the well educated Slashdot userbase?
The engine is limited, so the quests pretty much have to take that form.
You can still have clever or funny stories within that framework.
The actual mission editor is comparable to NWN, actually not as good iirc.
What's different is the integration - your mission goes into a global list available to everyone playing CoH with no installation required. There's an in-game feedback mechanism, a rating scheme etc.
I'd be interested to know how many hundreds of thousands of times the most popular AE missions have been played, and compare that to the most popular NWN modules (a stat that obviously doesn't exist but you get the idea)
And then they nerfed the worst of the AE abuses and people are running real missions and task forces again.
The cycle of MMO continues.
So I can watch Youtube videos of hockey fights.
The Canadian Best Buy website has at least 3 dozen PC + monitor bundles between $400 and $900, throw in another $50 for a printer.
I expect the US dollar would go even further.
The margins on this stuff are razor thin, or even a bunch of jerks like Best Buy wouldn't be resorting to bundling crapware for a measly $5/unit.
$1K for a PC? What decade are you from?
The margins on PCs are ridiculously thin.
That's why manufacturers have resorted to bundling crapware, and now apparently retailers as well.
Maybe, but that little chart is in Flash.
