What I find funny is the amount of people who believe its the $2000 PC owners who are pirating.

I always hear for example "Why make Watch Dogs look way better on PC if its just going to be pirated"

The people who's PC's are outputting visuals better than PS4/One are not the ones pirating.

Oh they can afford $2000 PC yet not afford a $50 or less game. Most gaming PC users buy their games for cheap like less than $30. 

If they spend so much on PCs, how can they have anything left over for games? ;)

On serious note, I do know there are people who spend every last dime on their uber PC and still pirate.

I never understood this pirating on PC's thing.  I've done a few for some games that never came stateside or super old games back before steam and other services came to be and offered em that way.  But I've found it screws up my PC more than helping it.  Having these programs in order to mount the .iso and what not.  Just seems to clutter up my PC and just as big or more of a hassle imo than any DRM i've run into.

Perfect example of horrible DRM is GTA IV. It has 3. 1 is steam which is a non issue. But then you have Windows Live and Social Club. They constantly don't want to sign in, or keep saying failed to connect. I've had to keep retrying to connect to one or both in order to play an online game. I frankly gave up and uninstalled GTA IV once I beat the game. Dealing with this nonsense to have some fun isn't worth it. I hope thanks to Live dying GTA V won't be ass on PC. And being optimised right... Steam really should mandate all other forms of DRM be removed from their versions of the game. Even Uplay is BS on top of steam. I don't buy ubisoft games on PC anymore. Just to avoid more passwords.
