I agree, it is frustrating when developers change the software you already paid for and are using w/out your consent. I didn't realize Steam had removed the "don't autoupdate" option but they have. A strong reason to buy games in a manner that allows you the user to control when/if you get updates. People who bought the game on GoG apparently are able to choose to apply patches.
We should be able to choose if/when we apply the patches. It's simple. I can look at the patch notes and make that call for myself.
You didn't buy the game, you bought the right to play it. There is a difference. The game's owners can change it anyway they see fit. It's their game, their vision.
