![]() Ubisoft is learning that people loathe the multiple layers of DRM, even the folks who were okay with Denuvo on top of UPlay, and I'm hoping Bandai Namco isn't stupid enough to repeat the mistakes of one of the other huge corporate bureaucracies that are paranoid and anti-consumer from the drop and then too lazy and apathetic to patch out their idiocy after they lose the arms race with pirates. 引用自 BearPajamaGod:Why do you care if other people don't pay for a product you already paid and did your part plus they wouldn't be playing online and probably wouldn't have bought it anyway. ![]() The latter can only affect pirates and legitimate users alike, while the former can affect random strangers who haven't ever heard of the game but happened to have a WEP protected home network that a stranger piggybacked on. To me, the act of sending an extortion letter demanding payment or suffer a lawsuit, to someone you can not be certain committed the crime in question is far worse than using DRM to protect the game. They can say it's "100% accurate" as much as they want to but chances are it isn't, what with dynamic IP addresses, unprotected/WEP protected WiFis and whatnot. Besides, 1000 euro is actually a realistic fine for this crime, compared to what most in the industry would try to get.īecause they aren't guaranteed to get the right individual? The whole "sending extortion letters to alleged pirates" scheme have been proven to have multiple issues countless times already, which is why it got so much backlash and they stopped with it. ![]() You know, the ones willing to pay for their games. Who cares they went after the ones who did something illegal? Them not using any DRM is in the interest, and for the convenience, of the consumer. 引用自 Aemony:You're apparently forgetting about the whole demanding money from pirates scheme that they executed in the wake of having removed the SecuROM DRM. Didn't stop them from then turning around and track down alleged pirates, sending extortion letters demanding 911.80 euros ($1230) to pay off their apparent debt to the company. So sure, they were "against" DRM from the beginning. You're apparently forgetting about the whole demanding money from pirates scheme that they executed in the wake of having removed the SecuROM DRM. ![]() So, instead of "CDPR learned on their previous mistake" it should be "Namco didn't learned from their previous mistake". ![]() What previous mistake are you talking about ?ĬDPR was always against DRM, even for TW2, but it was forced at release by the editor (Namco).įew hours later, because the DRM could cause from 5% to 30% performance drop, CDPR removed the DRM without the concent of Namco.ĬDPR issued a statement sayng that fans should not be worried about how much they had to pay Namco, because they made enough money thanks to TW2 sales to secure the future TW3. I guess CDPR learned on their previous mistake. ![]()
