I don’t understand Spore’s DRM system. DRM is tolerable when it works and when it does something positive for me. (I adore how portable my Steam games are.) But when the game was reportedly on torrent sites before release, what business benefit are EA achieving? It’s the perfect way to put an on-the-fence customer on the wrong side of the fence (that would be me).
Instead, I’ve spent the week having a blast with X-Com. And playing a classic 15 years later highlights what I find most distasteful. If you’re serious about making games with real lasting value, why shackle them like this?
