View Full Version : Part rant from frustration, part help request

This is the most frustrating game to ever install. First I had to install a steam account which is bad enough because I can't stand steam.

Now for the life of me I cannot figure out how to install the game to a different directory. The installer never asks me to install to a different directory and just assumes that where I want it where steam wants it. How do I change the install path?

So then I come to these forums and cant use the email address I've had for like a decade because relic is too good for hotmail accounts. So I have to go and make a gmail account just so I can make a post requesting help.

I have never had such difficulty installing a game before.

This isn't an official Relic forum. But anyway, the E-mail issue is due to the fact that Hotmail would tend to eat forum account activation mails.

As for Steam and DoW 2, you can't choose where to install the game, no. The only way around it is to install Steam to another drive or folder in the first place.

I did it this way, I installed steam in my games partition, so all my steam games are in it =)

Seriously? Bah, I'll move my steam install when I get home tonight. Thanks for the quick responses.
