Q's on Various downloads

xvaragornvx · 13-03-2008, 04:27 AM

This would be first time I've done digital download(i usually prefer a box). Evidently the Direct2Drives download says you need the digital download to use their download of Raising Hell. So I assume that won't work with my retail copy of the DVD. And its not showing up on steam, which I still dont know if that would work with my DVD either.

The big question is if I download the "Euro" version(which of course still has english) would it work with my US retail version of the original overlord. Being the first time I'd have bought a euro version, i have no clue.

Thanks for any help! I want to support the game (and get some more miles out of the game I loved), but just not sure on the details.

We're working on resolving the technical issues that prevents the Raising Hell Expansion to show up on Steam. That one will work with your storebought copy of Overlord.

I think it's impossible to download from Metaboli while in the US. The version should work, as far as I know - though I can't make no guarantees about that, I am afraid -, but Metaboli only supplies its downloadable content for Europe.

Thanks for reply! I can wait a while longer for some more overlord fun. I'll check with steam periodicly.
