If removing performance-worsening DRM wasn't gonna encourage piracy, fucking ads in a game sure would!

Not that the games are even necessarily worth the disk space and download time anymore..

So much space too. I get it with BG3, but every fucking game needing 100+Gbs and 25Gb updates? Full stop.
