The Week in Whining: Wargamer Hobos and the Anti-DRM Taliban Strike Again

December 4, 2010 7 Comments

Developers unable to recognize they OWE these people so much.

Sheer buffoonery.

With War in the East around the corner, the same clowns who whined to no end because of the outrageous price of Battles from the Bulge have launched a preemptive strike about the possible pricing of Grisby’s game. Just-in-case whining, all for $30 extra? I was glad to see this other thread where a fellow tried to bring some perspective and reason to the stupid argument that (oh my!) $30 extra is a deal breaker. He didn’t succeed but gets an honorable mention from this blog.

John Tiller went downloadable with Kharkov 43.  Good news? Nah! This thread at wargamer.com woke up the anti-DRM gang, who are still throwing punches into the air. Kharkov 43 has a mild, non-intrusive DRM scheme that relies on activations, but it’s DRM after all and the gang is ready for a fight. I love how they think that they will boycott the whole company just by themselves. Pathetic.

Out to play a war game so expensive that it should be banned.

    Honestly no I cannot believe it at all. It has really bummed me out about the entire community. Shame they have to fight amongst themselves instead of promoting the hobby

    You know what else I like? Matrix instantly locks any arguments about game pricing, but leaves the other thread wide open. KUDOS to censorship

    What’s your opinion on the future of HPS now that the guy who made up to 75% of their portfolio is gone?
