How did the OSP & DRM service influence your opinion on Silent Hunter V? (I.e. how would you have rated the game had it not had this DRM?) Did it make you less or more critical towards the product of the game?

Note that this does NOT ask for the absolute rating you give, but only whether OSP-DRM added/distracted to/from the quality of the product! And this poll does not test whether you bought SHV exactly because it had OSP, nor whether you won't buy it because of it. And the purpose of this poll is neither to criticize nor to praise OSP-DRM.

Both posters that own the game and have first hand experience, and posters that have build an opinion based on facts from the reviews, previews and the user comments here in subsim are welcome to vote.

I tried to construct it in a neutral fashion. I hope this is an intersting poll and gives a few insights on the effect the OSP-DRM has on buyers and potential buyers.

(sorry Neal if this counts as another DRM thread.)
