    I don’t think it’s ethical to demand that if people want to play your games, they have to do so on your shitty $500 DRM machine.

      It’s dumb as shit from a business perspective. Get em hooked on it, and it’ll eventually get them buying it through a legit avenue. Emulations hardly perfected in most cases, and a legit product these days isn’t always procured at first point of touch. People would like to know if that $100 purchase you are asking of them is actually worth it, because quite a lot of the time in our modern age, it’s not.

        Nah. Fuck them. The last thing we need on this planet is more single-use proprietary e-waste consumerism.
