It really is a big move, since it likely cost them millions in early sales.

I probably would have bought it already if I couldn't find a crack, but now I can pirate and wait for a nice sale.

I'm sure I'm not the only one.

You can just click the checkbox for "Copy crack to install directory" to get the installer to do everything for you.

I'm not sure why that isn't the default.

Do you keep the game if you get the "Deluxe Upgrade" on GamePass? Or do you have to keep paying the subscription if you want to play?

Which GPU did you get?

And also, the "early access" is just a way to get people to pay more for the game in the first week.

By all reasonable standards, the game has been fully released.

"Pre-ordering piracy"... What does that even mean?

I don't know why you'd want to rent the game if you've already got the cracked copy, but I would be surprised if the save files were any different between the two platforms.

The real danger behind Chat Control and similar measures, is that countries won't even have to utilize parallel construction anymore. No longer will dragnet surveillance mostly target the big guys. They'll be able to basically automate prosecution of any crime that they desire.

Think about how many little slices have been taken out of our freedom pie over the last 10 years. How many similar dystopian laws have passed despite our outrage?

Technology is outpacing our ability to protect ourselves, and countries will keep pushing boundaries until nothing is left sacred.

Oppression never sleeps.
