However you may sit in this debate, things are not likely to change dramatically from one day to another, and the reality is that yet another DRM service has been cracked, showing once again that simply erecting a barrier won't stop the world indefinitely. Valve managed to convince the world to embrace a DRM system by dressing it up in shiny clothes and offering a lot of added functionality, such as being able to discover and purchase indie games that you would not have normally heard about, or older AAA titles at a fraction of their original price. The truth is, as always, rarely pure and never simple, and while some might see the long-term benefit of piracy as something that gradually grows the industry and its audience, as well as providing people with a means to test games before committing to a purchase, others just won't have it, and point out that just like everything else in life, video games also have a cost, and if you can't afford it, you shouldn't play them. The topic of video game piracy has been debated to death, with many claiming that it's theft, no matter how you choose to look at things, while others decry the hoops legitimate users have to go through in order to allow corporate executives and investors to feel a false sense of security. ![]() ![]() Apparently, the 64 bit version of the infamous Denuvo DRM has been cracked, potentially opening the flood gates for all the FIFA 15, Dragon Age: Inquisitions and Lords of the Fallen downloads that the Internet can muster.
