people who actually bought the game will suffer more than pirates, as usual.
This. Always, always this.
When will they learn that this DRM nonsense is absolutely useless? It'll get cracked within days, if not hours, and then what have you gained? Your game is still pirated, and your legal consumers pay the price. They're the ones who have to deal with unsafe junk on their PC, they're the ones who have to deal with not being able to play the game when servers go down. And the pirates, as a result, get a better gaming experience.
This is why I don't buy PC games. I'm not rewarding that **** with a sale.
(Please note that I do not pirate PC games, either. If I buy a game it's for console. Of course, it also helps that I don't have a proper gaming rig at the moment...)
