Steam, please clarify before sales
Should anyone from steam read this, you should really put warnings about games that use GFWL. I almost bought this. Luckly, I checked the discussions and got warned. Not the first time this has happened.

Please don't tell me that I can juts fix GFWL, I've tried. Happy if it works for you, but for me it won't.

Enhanced Steam will give you a very noticeable warning if a game uses things like GFWL/Uplay. Highly recommend you check it out.

No kidding, there's no mention of a third-party DRM nowhere on the store page. Much less the abomination that is GFWL.

I thought it was standard feature on the storepage after the redesign, but guess it's only used for some titles.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ approach, especially when you consider how Steam dislikes refunds, even if they are clearly warranted (and supposedly within the legal rights of customers, but when you have near monopoly, who cares about those).

GFWL is made by Microsoft (Hence, Games for Windows Live). :P

Myeah, because most customers dig through EULA before buying.

Anyway, GFWL is a "system requirement" and should, at least, be listed there.

Its on the Store page, just click the 'Read More' on the game description, but your right it should be in the Game Specs

Now I see it. It's under "About the Game," rather than "System Requirements" as usual.

If I have to read the EULA, then in my opinion it is hidden.

Really, how hard would it be to take it out of games, a simple patch and watch the sales come in. Should be very cost effective, I would think.

In the meanwhile, the discussions always snitch GFWL out, and I for one will not buy a title that uses it. If enough people vote with their wallet, they will see the light.

"HHHMMMM, no sales on any games that require GFWL, wonder if a quick patch would fix that?"

"Let's find out..."

I'm going to look into enhanced steam, thanx.

I can confirm that these two file work around works, but I found another link which said the Two Step Verification is what is blocking you from getting in to Windows Live.

If you go in to a browser and change the settings so that the Two Step Verification is turned off, then the game will work as normal.

If you are worried about security you can install the Windows Live Verification App to your phone and use that to keep an extra layer of protection on your account.

If it could be a "quick patch" it would have been fixed already. Plenty of other titles have dropped GFWL support over the year, and it is most certainly not as simple as changing a few bits of code.
