Eh, I don’t really care. Now that every manufacturer and developer under the sun has decided I don’t own the games I buy. I couldn’t care less about their games getting pirated. I mean, I don’t own the game anyway according to their ToS, I just rent it.
But it’s more than that. I can’t even find old game isos easily anymore. Nintendo went out of their way to threaten legal action against sites that had been up for over a decade so they could do their shitty online emulator store.
They’re going after everyone now. I bought my switch in 2016, won’t be buying another one.
I’m not saying they’re right for it, just stating what reality is. Anyone with half a brain knew this was coming the second they used proprietary code.
Watching the latest accursed farms video was very eye opening, even services like GOG with no DRM probably still have that legalese where you don’t own the files, but in reality you do since they can’t stop you from playing them, the legal sphere is even more of fantasyland than I thought, it actively denies reality.
@NocturnalMorning@Alto Just avoid them as possible. On GoG.com you can buy PC games without any DRM. I even bought a game I already own, just to have a legit DRM free version like Skyrim and Fallout 4.
