Soccorro: Hi,
Doesn't make that DRM-free thing torrenting Gog games legal? I mean is it possible to share the games with others or is every game bound to just one customer by any terms? And NO I'm not going to download Gog.com games via Torrent.
It doesn't make it legal. I think you need to revisit the definition.
Here's the thing. GOG trusts its customers to make the moral choice to not pirate. It's a conscious policy of treating customers as honest. You repay that trust when you buy games here instead of pirating. Working together for mutual benefit instead of relying on force is how civilized people behave.
So GOG isn't going to spend time or energy on DRM schemes to try and control their customer's behavior. Those don't work, and GOG has better things to do. If someone can't stand the thought of buying games legally, then there's no technical measure to prevent the installers from being torrented. GOG relies on the same social contract that we all rely on through out life, that says "We're all people here together, and we're not going to all stab each other in the grocery aisles, we're going to basically get on with our lives."
Titanium: ... I know this
Argonian maid, alright?...
Soccorro: Wow, that derailed into a completely different multiverse... But i guess its better that way, i just realized how dumb my topic is. It makes me look like a arrogant, self loving retard... Is there a way to kill it off? Aaaand is that the only page of that comic?
Eh, don't feel too bad. This is not the stupidest question we've had around here by any means. :)
FYI, the Argonian Maid is a reference to a character in Elder Scrolls: Morrowind who hit on everyone. Literally everyone - they'd forgotten to make his dialogue gender-specific before the game released. He'd written a play with the Argonian maid, and you get quoted some dialogue if I'm remembering correctly.
