"Peforming first time setup...installing directx"

Does anyone else feel the sheer banality of this message. Yes I'm installing a steam game I also had to install visual c++ which I'm sure is also already on my pc since I have many many games installed.

Its not just steam regular installers do it too. Why cant they detect if directx is on your pc and not reinstall? Pretty shocking in this day and age.

/Rant.
 
Ok I thought since Im running XP and DX9 that I could play any game thats dx9 without updating anything.

It doesnt take 20 seconds for me, it can go on for a lot longer perhaps 2 or 3 minutes.
