I've never pirated a game. I have a hard time saying I in fact would pirate RoF, but I feel they have tied the hands of hobbyists. I really wouldn't mind as much if six months ago or a year ago they'd have come up with this scheme. How many simmers would have been mad, but wouldn't have gotten their hopes for a WW1 flight sim? To announce their stupid copy protection measures so close to release shoots them in the foot by angering HONEST, LOYAL PURCHASING simmers.
They deserve lost sales. They deserve to be pirated. It's the honest folks who pay the price of theft. I'm seriously looking at doing exactly what I thought I'd never do - PIRATE a game.
