The meaning isn't lost, it's as clear as day. It means any attempts by a company selling software to enforce the Licensing agreement they are selling for it. The trouble is the anti DRM cult think DRM means software that is installed on their PCs that isn't the product they bought. Also the anti DRM cult don't even aknowledge that software companies have a right to try and protect the License of their product, which is a strikingly similar view point as peop

[quote]So in my place, Blizzards cd-key measures (which I do not consider DRM) made me buy games.[/quote] CD keys are the quintessential DRM. In general though this DRM is easy peasy to circumvent. Hence why you get some dodgy Asian sites that sell CD keys instead of the retail product.

Haree approves of Wintersong's new Avatar.

I read somewhere though that Tages doesn't allow you to deregister a PC so on my 3rd PC change I wouldn't be able to install the game anymore?

My guess is that the amount of people that don't buy games because of DRM isn't much more than the people who whine on the forums about it. It's like a little online cult, like EA bashers.

That analogy is like no DRM I have ever encountered in my life. What are you going on about?

My point is I couldn't give a crap about a pirates complaints about DRM, like burglers complaining that their privacy is invaded with security cameras in stores, go to hell. Criminals justifying their actions because of crime preventative measures are just morons, Monk, you really don't need to lower yourself to arguing with that kind of person.

I'd put £50 here and now on Viisari having used those emulator tools to run a downloaded game, who's willing to take my bet?

Spreading the human plague in to another planets eco system would not be an achievement. (Written with my tongue half in my cheek.....and half not if I'm honest)

You are comparing 1 skill on 1 Demigod to 1 skill on another Demigod, your statistics are meaningless. Having played both Sedna and QoT and doing quite well with both I don't think Sedna is much better than QoT. I think Sedna can become more out of control than QoT though if she is fed a lot.

I've never had any DRM issues in my history of gaming since the ZX Spectrum 48k. I used to get a little annoyed every time I had to get the paper wheel out of the box to match up Monkey heads with idols and stuff just to play the game.

[quote]Well, there is some pretty good gear from the Abyss PvP with unique stats (reduced damage from players, increased damage to players), but all the PvP is using the Abyss Point system so regardless of what kind of PvP you do you can eventually get it. AFAIK, the blue and gold gear needs silver and gold medals that you get from sieging the Balaur castles in lower and upper Abyss (lower give silver, upper give gold). But in essence, there's just one PvP reward system, and a few ways to pla

[quote]Last time I played Tropico 2 it hard locked and permenantly froze a bunch of pixels on my LCD. I've been too cowardly to try that again. [e digicons]:'([/e] [/quote] There is no way in hell a game can be held responsible for your LCD screwing up.

What version of software are you using?

The ESRB is an industry voluntary organisation that helps the industry avoid government intervention. "Sticking it to the man!" in this case is counter productive, if you deliberately undermine the ESRB you risk laws coming in to place that are more than likely harsher to video game enthusiasts so rage against the machine isn't going to help anyone. Censorship is often unnecessary, age regulation is probably a very go

[quote]Nicholas Cage usually makes good movies[/quote] You lost me there.

I was going to mention that Annatar. Lots of people have mentioned it plays out very similar to WoW but it's the new stuff that intrigues me, the World PvP looks like a fantastic idea. Plus I wont miss WoW's elitest Arena game that rewards overpowered combos with the best gear in the game!

Does the Pantheon stats not list your custom game history to get peoples names from?

I think you are misinterpreting slightly, although I can't read the linked thread from here. There was some 'mature' language used in some of the original unit responses but I believe it was changed just to get the right ESRB rating. Also there were ideas about having bodies floating amongst the wreckage of destroyed ships but I'm not sure they ever went passed ideas.

A great idea and a great list. Random events is something I've been requesting since they started talking about the first expansion. Let's hope we see more love for the single player gamers (majority) such as additions such as this as an OPTION and not just pandering to the vocal MP crowd.

I hate being right in this case. https://forums.stardock.com/351282/get;2199871

This is great news and I almost missed it! I'll definately be preordering and playing the beta.

Spooky you are making rediculous assumptions. Hate to break it to you but Creep666 just proved your assumptions are wrong with his screen shots, in the build he was playing anyway. My post was meant to show where it is possible that if the developers haven't specifically coded in protection, that works, there could be a vulnerability, according to your post the developers are infalable and "of course such data is checked"!
