Now i am someone whos a Huge Fan of DRM Free Gaming (well im in GOG Community go figure :P) and basically what i was always wondering as as to why DRM seems to be so popular still among Gamers considering StarForce and such? >.>

DRM Free Gaming is probably mostly a Thing that probably comes into Old Gamers Minds more than newer ones considering that StarForce and SafeDisc are more or less RetroDRMs that i doubt many Newer Gamers cant phatom really? >.>

But what surprises me the most is that the Voice arent "louder" for even just removing Basic Denuvo after 6 Months off Steam or so >.>
Like for me itd be honestly fine to make a Trade off them just having Denuvo on a New Release for 6 - 12 Months and then removing it honestly as itd love to buy Games such as the Persona Games instead of having to emulate them honestly :P

I switched to gog, but with the steam deck it's more convenient to have games on steam so I switched back since I bought it. Also I like indie games and there are many missing titles on gog

    On a small tangent, might I suggest the Heroic Launcher? It connects GOG, Prime Gaming, EGS and (in beta) Zoom Platform, and makes things rather seamless while keeping things pretty self-contained on Linux.
