Completely failing to do anything about stopping the piracy because all of these games have been pirated already, but punishing paying customers with shitty DRM? Brilliant!
Indeed! And encouraging paying customers to go learn something about piracy when their purchased game won’t work right!
I knew there was something wrong when my pirated copies of these games suddenly started vanishing from my hard drive! Curse you, DRM!
~ What the execs think will happen, I guess? What is the point of applying DRM to a game that has already released?
My guess is it’s basically a beta test of the DRM that they’re going to roll out for future games. Y’know… instead of testing in-house, just test on your consumers.
Disregard quality control, acquire short term profits.
Possibly, though I suspect that releasing your new DRM early is a good way to have it broken by the time you actually want to protect something with it.
One can only hope :P
lmao I just imagined this scene in my head and started laughing.
This simply means that Capcom games (sadly) have to disappear from my wishlist, and instead they will appear on my treasure map now, which charts a course through seven seas.
I was considering picking up Stadium and Standium 2 on my SteamDeck, having already bought them on Switch.
But it turns out I have other convenient DRM free options to play my purchased Capcom games on my SteamDeck. I make it a point not to send money in support of DRM bullshit.
Can we start requesting refunds? A wave of refunds will get Valve to yell at Capcom
Honestly I just wish I could freeze updates to games that are playable offline. It’s so frustrating when I’m playing a single player game with no problems then an update happens and I have to break my mods because steam forces me to update.
Steam lets you disable auto updates on a per-game basis
It’s a bandaid. The moment the files get corrupted, or brand new computer… You’re f’d.
Except as soon as it realizes an update is ready it will make you update before you can play. The only way to stop it is to stay in offline mode all the time so that it doesn’t check for updates to your games.
All the auto update disable does is keep it from automatically doing the update but it’ll still force you to update.
Maybe we need one more title to be sure about what the post is?
Capcom appears to have added DRM Enigma to more of their games on Steam
there you go
What?
