    Default Why do i need the disks?

    Why do I need the disks to play the game? All the files have already been moved from the disk to the hard drive, so it doesn't make sense that you still need the disks

    Yeah, if you get attacked by rebel pirate ships, you can throw the disc at them and slice off their head.

    Using Discs as weapons isn't included in the EULA.

    If you have steam you don't need the discs.
    Things I trust more than American conservatives:
    Drinks from Bill Cosby, Flint Michigan tap water, Plane rides from Al Qaeda, Anything on the menu at Chipotle, Medical procedures from Mengele

    For any game. I have Shogun 2 and Empire retail version. If I ever lose my disks I can just download it anytime I want. One of the good features about Steam. Either way I don't need them to play though.
