Another pirate complaining about Denuvo when it does absolutely nothing.
And seriously you dont want to install Steam? That is your excuse?
I understand the point MBC is making in regards of Steam. However because of the Workshop this is actually the only way. But forcing people into a platform they don't want to use is never a good idea. It is the future however. Boxed games will become less and less. Even the consoles (PS/Xbox) are barely using discs anymore. Very soon there will only be Steam, Origin, Uplay.
about DRM? We have nothing to say about that. It's the company's decision to do this and I fully support them in doing that. Having a different opinion about that does not instantly means he is a pirate (accusations never work well on forums) but I do feel there's no point in asking it being removed.
Either take what they give you or don't.
