> Past that, both the presence and subsequent removal of a standard DRM is neutral since it similarly won’t impact or be noticeable to most users —- we only cover its presence and removal primarily for historical purposes essentially. The knowledge that a part of the DRM was historically removed at one point is ultimately irrelevant to most of players. | > Past that, both the presence and subsequent removal of a standard DRM is neutral since it similarly won’t impact or be noticeable to most users —- we only cover its presence and removal primarily for historical purposes essentially.

I think that even though removal of DRM is *unnoticed* by most players, it is not irrelevant to anyone, as it restores a portion of control of the game to all those that own and/or play it, which assists both in their ability to play the game in the future, as well as for secondary tasks like applying mods and community patches. | I think that even though removal of DRM is *unnoticed* by most players, it is not irrelevant to anyone, as it restores a portion of control of the game to all those that own and/or play it, which assists both in their ability to play the game in the future, as well as for secondary tasks like applying mods and community patches. | ||
