It's as legal as you being alive. Besides you agree to any terms of any game developer when you buy and use their products, end of story.

As for the piracy ghost, sure some developers exaggerate and/or exploit the problem , in a sense that if their game fails they blame piracy. Still it doesn't change the fact that even if you develop a good game and skip DRM people will still pirate it.
These so called "trustworthy pirates" which claim that they buy the games if it doesn't have DRM is just pure bullshit, any game gets pirate even the good ones, and looking at statistics the good games gets pirated even more.

Even if you can't blame a failed game on piracy, it's obviously a problem, and why in the world should i be ignored? It's their product they've spent time of their life developing... yes they've every right to protect it as much as they want.
I mean fine absolutely you're not forced to buy the game upon release, its all your choice and if you chose not to buy great, but if you chose to pirate/steal instead, that just speaks for itself about who lacks some moral judgment.
