Trenken thinks he knows all the intricacies of the DRM world, from the dev diaries of GW.. And that we're all newbies in this computer business..
That game is an MMO, and needs to check everything you do, everything you buy/sell, use, kill, whatever from the server and interact it with the whole community of connected users...
The DRM we have w/ SH5 will just be a glorified disc-checker at the startup of the game, that will connect and check your digital certificate or whatever system they have implemented, check your version and upload/download savegame. That's all there is to it...
But for some reason they need you to keep being connected, for what reason??
Easy to implement and easy to take out.. The devs are busy developing/tweaking/bug hunting the game engine right now not working on the functions of drm..
