Most of the time, I really don't mind DRM. I don't blame publishers and developers for wanting to protect their work. I can even sort of understand the online activation (even though I strongly oppose the use of it when it limits you to a certain number of activations) but Ubisofts new DRM is really crossing the line.
I'm curious to see what the gamers of [H] think about it. Please answer honestly (it's private)... if you ever plan on buying one of the games (even though you might hate or love the DRM), then answer yes.
I was pretty bummed to see that the new splinter cell will be using it. As much as I like the franchise, I'm just not willing to support something that limits how and when you can use something that you own... and have a feeling that I'm not alone on that. I see this as either the beginning of the end for ubisoft games on the PC or a new avenue for other publishers to protect their work (hopefully not)
