I was redirected here from dm's..
Recently got HN2 deluxe on a new steam profile, so I removed standard. yes, from the appdata too.
I run every HN game without starting Steam, by starting the game itself from it's own folder with the .exe file. so let's say, I run them "offline".
but if I run the HN2.exe file, the DLC's remain locked. (see pic)
if I run the game through steam, they are unlocked, but only during that time.
is there ANY way to not run steam and have the DLC's unlocked? steam takes a lot of RAM memory, and this is why I don't want to run it.
