MAJOR EDIT: warning Just found out from Lin545 telling us this game has a unique DRM that I know no one here would want to deal with including me. so if you are one then hell dig in enjoy.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------
it's a point and click game but with the feel of the 2 said games on the title.
It's a three part game and part one just came out 3 weeks ago.

Here is a trailer for the game

"Content Control: Digital Watermarking and Fingerprinting

Classic DRM:
The classic DRM (digital rights management) approach..:

* Content Identification
* Copyright Control
* Copy Protection
* Viewer Tracking
* Forensics"

Oh boy, I already enjoy!

Woah, thanks for that Lin. I didn't even notice that drm. That sucks

I remember when this had its kickstarter campaign and it looked it wasn't going to make it. I'm glad they managed to release the first part. It looks like they hope to be funding future developing with the sales of the first act of the game, like Broken Age. I wish them good luck! Hopefully this gets a GOG release when it's completed.

Yeah, it looks like they want to keep cake and eat it to build marketing. Calling watermarking drm-free is not really correct, its like a serial number and your name next to it.
It could easily backfire and what are they going to do, if someone from far far location under a rock starts to distribute their work? Completely useless and its sad that they descended to this.

Speaking of illegal distribution, I don't know if its legal to build off their previous work - the MISERY mod. Because people did. And great things happened, like Call of Misery.

Watermarking is part of DRM if user information is embedded, or part of copyright - if company information is embedded. In this case, its DRM for the simple reason - they are fingerprinting, as its a hidden key that contains your data.

Wither one likes it or not, was not touched by my message. Its that they clearly have a DRM form there and mark it as DRM-free at same time.

I did not even notice but my fucking god... now I feel bad for even posting this, Should I just remove it or leave it up for people? I have the feeling it won't turn out well at the end :/

Leave it up. People can make their own decision about it, now that it's known.

I have made my descision. Though I really like Stalker and Metro, I would never support such a drm bullshit. For mme, it is even worse when someone uses drm and says they don't have drm. Will completly ignore it and hope they go bankrupt.

Lets hope they will change this in the future or something cause now I can see the reason and I removed it from my computer, I just feel so bad after supporting this thing and finding out about it now... should have did way more research on it but man, Caught off guard on this one. Can you show me where you found this out? I been looking and can't seem to find the source to this. or I am just really blind and it's in front of me.

Go to the "Buy The Seed Act 1 today for LAUNCH PRICE of $10" part (just below the presentation video) and click "DIGITAL DOWNLOAD / PC, Mac & Linux" (under What you get:).


EDIT: I'm referring to the game's website (http://mdtseed.com/)

point and click?... so not really like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. or metro
