Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

I don't believe that even without DRM the game would've been pirated that much... i mean people usually pirate games they actually want to play lmao.
But let's see how long it takes the industry to realize that games like bg3 and palworlds, that don't have any DRM, are still money making machines.... hmmm
Never underestimate how much people want to see a trainwreck up close. Of course, pirating is free, I doubt many people want to pay money for a trainwreck, so not sure if Denuvo is really going to save them from losing actual sales
Seriously "#1 sold game on steam in 2024" ah yes, because that's a good metric when it's been only one month and the biggest titles have a tendency to drop in December
