You don't matter to 2K. The number of people who would ttly pay for a DRM free version is way smaller than the number of people who would be stopped from just pirating the thing by the DRM.

This is why DRM is a fact of life. Adjust or do without.




I just had a look, and found Infinite + all DLC very easily in a torrent index. Dozens of seeds, too.

The number of people stopped from pirating the thing is effectively zero. The number of people willing to pay for a DRM free version demonstrably exceeds that.

Nonsense. Number of people stopped by DRM for such games is zero, because it's broken already. Do the rest of the math. As I said, it's not about the money, they are losing money by not selling it DRM-free. It's about some irrational fear of admitting that DRM is garbage and isn't needed.
