I must admit that response does make it sound like the disc includes an installer for Steam and nothing else. While that sounds (and is) ridiculous, I have seen other games go this route as well.
I don't see it as ridiculous simply because I understand they are insanely busy and their schedule now must be insanely long hours with little to no sleep and that's not even counting the problems they've run into lately. I very much hope they see a lot of success with this game, these guys deserve it.
