DRM is something I can't stand. For those wondering what DRM is, it's basically a security measure in video games, where it will often only allow people to play if there is an internet connection. So if there is no internet, you won't be able to play the game. That's not all though, in the past, (idk about now), some DRM only allowed you to play that game on up to 3 machines only, and I think it would render the game useless afterwards. I'm not 100% sure if that is valid, but it's what I heard.
I found that the new Alan Wake remastered also has DRM, as in you can't play the game offline. I had issued with internet the other day and found I couldn't play the game because it required I have internet. Now, Alan Wake is a single player game, with no online mechanics whatsoever. So I don't get why they require an online connection, just seems wrong to me, considering I paid for the game, I should be able to play it even when it's not connected to the web.
Anyway, that's not all, DRM is known to cause issues with performance. As well, I remember some new releases in the past were down because there was DRM issues.
It's not consumer friendly to do this to gamers.
