It only had steam DRM on Steam, so I doubt they were to worried considering how easy it is to bypass.

Personally, I suspect they just want to catch a few double dippers.

I mean, convenience is a factor.

And while Steam doesn’t typically sign exclusive stuff they are known to use store positioning as a bargaining chip for preferential treatment. You’d think Konami would be above needing that, but who knows.

Anyway, good game, whatever the reason for the delay. Someone who is on the fence about getting it on Steam go get it on GOG instead to make up for them tricking me.

Never considered the possibility of preferential treatment in return for a slight delay.
