I always will choose a DVD disc.

DRM is a big NO, somewhere I read that the whole thing what DRM is about: it isn't copy protection, it forbids reselling the game.That hits the nail.

A sim is a game you plan to play for years and hardly you will want to resell it. The installation limit kills you right to play the game on the long run. I clean my pc formating my drives very often and that installation limit doesn't let me do that.

Copy protection is another chore, I don't think it is useful, usually it is cracked almost immediately. I hate to have services or process running when they are not necessary, those cpu cycles are for gaming. True simmers will buy the game, this is not a casual game, pirates can download it but I don't think they have the commitment to play them.

Simulations are games with a very special niche that makes DRM or Copy Protection meaningless. You only makes your customer base angry.

I was waiting for Black Shark badly, but I didn't buy it because those reasons. DCS just lose a sale.

I honestly think the whole thing backfires.
