@Grievous69
Thanks for all the great answers, much appreciated.
1-4 & 6, good to know.
5. Glad to hear that. I'll have to make sure I save that key or email and copies of it to my backup devices.
8. That's certainly the kind of saves I like. Although I'll try my best to go through the game without reloading if I get blown up, to see how far I can get.
9. Thank goodness for that. It's tough for me to play RTS games of any type with the pause function.
10. If I can rebind even 90% of the keys I'll be happy. Default settings rarely ever fit me 100% of the time.
11. It's good to know there's a mod out there. I look forward to that update. As much as I appreciate the hard work people put into mods, some things I prefer built in-game by the developers.

Thank you for reaffirming the answers provided by Grievous69, much appreciated.
1, 3-6, 8-10. Between both replies, I think I've got solid info now.
2. Agreed, no game is 100% bug free on all systems. Just too many variations. I use a EVGA 1080, hopefully I won't have that issue. Will cross my fingers.
7. From your reply it sounds like one game folder with all files inside, so there is nothing to extract, right? Just download directory and run the .exe or .bat file?
8. Manually as in typing in a save game name in the field once I select the save function or am I actually creating a sub-directory for the save files?
11. I think Grievous69 answered that one, but thank you for trying.

2. Thanks for reaffirming the other two replies. Every bit helps.
I want to thank you all again for the replies and the answers within. Now if only I knew how to reply to each of you separately. Guess I still have much to learn.
The info I got from everyone was enough to reassure me, so I'll probably buy the game in the next couple of days.
Online purchasing always makes me a bit nervous and with GOG.com I only had to give up my name and card info and nothing else. So, it'll take me a couple of days to make the leap lol. I know it sounds silly, but it's just who I am.
P.S. I am curious why other online sites don't have that simple payment method, including this one. It would clear a huge barrier when it comes to online buying for reluctant people such as myself. It must be one heck of a complicated process.
