Source: http://www.guru3d.com/news-story/ea-infe...y-drm.html Well first off this is such BS coming from EA. Origin isn't enough I assume? We need another layer of DRM? I'm completely flabbergasted at this that I can't even come up with a reasonable response. What are your thoughts?

This kind of issue leads people who purchased the game to receive cracked copies, which is really frustrating for everyone...

Do you recall when Assassin's Creed 2 came out and the official Ubisoft release was inferior to the pirated version? Before you accuse me of being a pirate, I don't support piracy, but these DRM restrictions make the cracked version more appealing. Ubisoft then filed complaints about piracy on PC. A straightforward way to prevent piracy is by offering a strong product that runs smoothly on UBI servers, avoiding constant crashes, data issues, and login problems. Steam succeeded by providing a compelling, value-driven DRM system that truly benefits players. It's not complicated.

Ubisoft performs the same actions, confirming DRM functionality. This message comes from EA warning users to be cautious.

Isn't tying your product to your account enough? What's the point of an installation limit DRM system? Why do they need such restrictions? Honestly, I find DRM controls like SecuROM excessive. But can you really prove they actually help curb piracy?

It actually exacerbates piracy. Observe that titles purchased from GOG without DRM are hard to locate online in a pirated version, whereas those with DRM are widely available and easy to find.

Fairly speaking, it stopped the game from cracking too quickly as planned.

I'll wake up the next day, and torrent platforms will keep sending me messages saying "We have hardline!"
