[quote name='carpwrist']That's not entirely true. DRM targets the people who profit from pirating. One person playing a game for his own enjoyment doesn't actually take any money from the developers. If anything it improves the likeliness of someone buying a game after they get an impression of it. Also, pirates don't play online, so what's your deal here?
Is there ever going to be thread involving a hit PC game that doesn't somehow involve piracy?[/quote]
How is one profiting from pirating? here, in the US? China, yes, HK and Taiwan yes... as much as it is from profiting, is it legal to then just make a copy for your friend? no...
And One person becomes millions, look at Napster.
improves likeliness? it's called a DEMO... or SHAREWARE.
my deal is people openly admitting to it while not feeling any remorse to it. this isn't Free Ass Gamers. Discussing deals and games to be had for cheap, not stealing, theiving and bragging about it.
