I totally agree with point 1 (I'm already missing the fellas, and seeing them contemplate real stuff in amazement, glancing at every detail, just like I was...), and right now, the only thing that's ruining the hope I had with SH5 is this damn DRM thing. If only they made it with an "offline" mode like Steam, or made exceptions for titles with low piracy-risk (seriously, how many people might have been interested in pirating a sim?), or even made exceptions in those places where its retail price doesn't make it worth pirating (19.90 euros in Spain, and lower for older titles: 5 euros SH2 and DC, 10 euros SH3...).

I'd prefer very much to have Securom or something alike (even Starforce is better than this!). As it's being told that it will work, I won't be able to play SH5 on sundays at my Granma's because she's like +80 years old, and doesn't have Internet. Or whenever I'm on a vacation, if I don't have Internet wherever I am, I won't be able to play. Or if my ISP has me a full day disconnected (or more, it's not the first time it happens me, along with power outages whenever the electrical system needs some refrigeration) because of technical problems, that's a day I won't be able to play.

Sure, put it in Assasins Creed, and whatever hit-games you can think of, but SH are not games of high pirating-rates, so the system is pointless in this case. Most games nowadays get a crack programmed, but that doesn't mean they're actually used.

Cheers
