Name: Anonymous on Sep 21, 2008Comments: I agree with removal of activation limits, some people upgrade harddrives and have to reinstall their operating systems and should not suffer due to upgrading their computers, especially with increases in technology. I should be allowed to go back and play this game in a years time on a newer system without penalty. If the issue is people cracking the game then this will not stop them as they will simply crack the activation requirements.Flag

Name: Greg Yiangou on Sep 22, 2008Comments: This latest DRM business is ridiculous - I was going to buy Spore before I heard about the DRM that came with it and changed my mind, and the same applies to Clear Sky. Games publishers need to understand they are definately LOSING sales by imposing this on their customers, without affecting piracy at all.Flag

Name: John Prezioso on Sep 22, 2008Comments: I have never pirated a game. But if the day comes when I start, it will have been because I got sick and tired of the DRM garbage. How about publishers stop treating us like thieves The irony is that only the actual pirates get to play the game without annoyances, as they easily bypass the DRM.Flag

Name: Scott Hunter on Sep 22, 2008Comments: As always, punishing legitimate users and *validating* the act of piracy itself. Same issue has occurred to a degree with EA/Crytek and the digital download Crysis line.Flag

Name: Steven Nelson on Sep 22, 2008Comments: This sort of DRM always does more to discourage legitimate buyers, rather than pirates. I also routinely make hardware changes or need to reinstall the OS, so have to be careful not to buy games that use this DRM scheme.Flag

Name: Derek Bowen on Sep 22, 2008Comments: I have to agree, computer gamers are always upgrading or changing parts, doing re-installs and the like and these low activation limits are insane, at least let us do a de-activate along the line somehow, or just stop screwing paying customers, since the pirates can get around most all of this DRM.Flag

Name: Bret Rowlinson on Sep 22, 2008Comments: I am a strong believer that DRM only encourages increased piracy, as it makes it more difficult for legitimate buyers to play the games they have purchased. Also, there was no indication of a 5 activation limit on the Steam version of this game, and during purchase this was not mentioned. If it was, I would likely not have purchased this game.Flag

Name: Anonymous on Sep 22, 2008Comments: I too change hardware and reinstall my OS. While I do not have Stalker per say I do have other games(cough SPORE cough) that have similar copy protection even on disc based copies and do want that protection back to just a steam login or a ck disc as situation warrents.Flag
