I've put my game aside until they finally get around to finishing the game

This is exactly what I ended up doing without even realizing it. A game like that is a game where whenever you crack it they come up with a different patch.
I don't think I'm willing to go back to fetching CDs everytime I want to play a game, I even went and bought 2 120GB HDDs just to put copies of the CDs on the HDD for all those Fixed-EXEs. It wasn't a total waste of money as I will eventually go back to playing it, I just finished NWN and SOU and still playing HOU (Still havent touched on the community stuff) and I've been putting it off for the same reason.
I think the crack for 1.6 will come faster this time but by that time people will already want one for 1.7 because of all the bugs in 1.6 and because it is just too hard to go back to using the original CDs after tasting no-cd.
Some people have a compulsion to download the latest patch (even if it's a beta) or the latest gpu driver (just for the benchmark scores) and are not willing to roll-back to a previous release. I have the 1.5 no-cd but no will to actually PLAY the game. But that's just me.
