So I am not sure regular new parts of the game series will have such a positive effect, the more so given the publisher already lost all passion for games and is driven by mere shareholder value nowadays, which shows in the quality levels of newly released products.

We already lost GWX 4 due to that.
Just lets see if SH5 with this DRM retards remains active after SH6 is released... I reckon UBI will close the door and force all that bought SH5 to get SH6. Time will tell if UBI survives this DRM debacle
