Why fuck DRM?
DRM has no benefit to the consumer only negatives.
What are those negatives?
I gifted my dad a steam game for his birthday. He is a big Linux fan so he installed it on his Linux system. Now he can't play it for more than 5 minutes before denuvo freezes not only the game but somehow even manages to freeze the complete system and he has to reboot.
Had to return the gift. It's a shame he really wanted to play it
There might be a drm free version you could buy or pirate for him
Definitely true. I could refund the game and got him a different one that he also really wanted to play so it's all good :)
