I've known people who have had to pirate games more than once because the copies they bought wouldn't let them due play to DRM. DRM does nothing, it will always be cracked and all it does is cause companies to lose respect.
Yep. Just bought GTA IV: Episodes from Liberty City, and the DRM has caused the game to be unplayable for me. Thanks for alienating the customer Rockstar! Guess I'll just pirate their game next time.
Wait, what happened? Antipiracy? I don't understand..
Rockstar instituted an anti-piracy measure called DRM into their games. the DRM won't let me activate the game, despite the fact that I have a legit copy. If I pirated the game, I wouldn't have to deal with the DRM.
The worst of them is Ubisoft, seriously, it'd be easier to crack the game yourself than it would be to get their game to work with the ridiculous DRM they use. DRM won't stop piracy, it will encourage it.
