LOL, Capcom



TL DR, Crapcom's latest action in their war against modders saw them stealthily add DRM apparently made by a questionable Russian company into their catalog of games...said DRM then proceeding to completely fuck up said games, as well as add malware. The DRM's maker also proceeded to respond to customer complaints with "LOL, fuck off cheaters"

As of the current time, the result: negative review bombs and Crapcom hastily reversing the updates (but you know they'll be back with more anti-consumer shit).

EDIT: LOL, ninja'd by Rejectionist

I mean, my post didn't have a TLDR so I will eliminate mine because it is redundant. I am fully aware of my flaw of not posting TLDR together with what I shared, but that's because I have very limited, though at least my post are grammatically correct most of the time (I mean I am a language teacher so it's kinda mandatory for me, even though it took me ages to discover that "engaged" meant "about to marry" and NOT "seriously being boyfriend and girlfriend").
Retroactively putting DRMs for protecting against piracy is shady as hell, not to mention that they weren't even competent or willing enough to do some research on the company they hired to do the DRMs.

And so people who "sail the waves of the internet" to get their games at a 120% discount grows slightly.
 
PS

Mainland China MIGHT have done something GOOD, of course likely it is NOT for altruistic reasons, but I would approve of them since I did have an addiction to videogames (single player games, when I started videogaming obsessively and compulsively I had barely any internet savoir-faire).

How many years later are we on now from Gaben's "It's a service issue" statement regarding people going the Yarr, me mateys! route and the corpos still don't get it? Absolutely bonkers.

Oh now Capcom doubled down :



I have seen tons of modded footage of their games and that's one of the reasons some people still play them...
