I still have a PC copy of 2007(?) Sega Rally I can no longer play because the DRM software is no longer supported in Windows.
Maybe people should stop supporting these companies. I know saying it for the 729,631st time won’t change anything, but all I’m gonna say is I don’t have issues with Capcom, EA, Ubisoft, or a few other studios, because us simply 🌠 dont play their games 🌠
I have issues with Ubisoft even if they make shitty games I don’t play. (I’ve played older titles but have since quit supporting or playing the ones I have), since the company is still preying on whales, children and gamers who are less savvy about dark patterns. Ubisoft also still continues a toxic work environment in which the upper management preys sexually on the clerical staff and then works to bury any scandals and silence the victims. And I’d regard that as offensive and bad for the economy even if it was happening in a fissile fuel rod manufacturing company I never personally engaged with.
Ubisoft, and much of the gaming industry generally is really awful across several compound practices. I mean EA and Gearbox have the same kinds of developer abuse climate and they routinely crunch and do massive layoffs even though both practices make their games measurably worse.
That said, Capcom has been a problem for a long time, and I’ve ceased getting or playing capcom games over a decade ago. But I hope it tanks and stops taking money from gamers who don’t know better.
Every DRM punishes paying customers, not only this new thing.
Capcom has been really shit for a while now, they completely lost all of my trust with how they launched MHW. It was a barebones minimum viable port that runs a 3090 hot and frequently had network failures, and they refused Refunds for thousands of people.
It’s like Asian Disney.
When you say MWH, did you mean MHW, as in Monster Hunter World? I can’t think of another Capcom game that MHW could be.
Thank you! I really hate super ambiguous gaming acronyms, that even as a gamer myself, I either can’t understand or have to rack my brains to figure out. It’s really bloody annoying!
So, I don’t know how to put this, and I don’t this actually isn’t true . Not sure how this blew up, but yeah.
That article feels autogenerated, it repeats the same four lines over and over. Basically one guy says that thousands of other people are wrong.
I’m at work so I can’t do deep dive searching, and honestly I will probably forget about this by the time I get home, but there are other people I follow who report on this stuff, unfortunately only in podcast format, who have also talked to modders in person. All of them say mods are fine. Take that for what you will.
Is the DRM already out? I assumed this was for some upcoming update they announced but I haven’t had any mods break, including the light pillar mod which I thought Capcom’s DRM was supposed to prevent. Even just 3 or 4 days ago someone went in and one shot a monster.
