The blame is on every cuck that installed Steam for Onions-Life 2

Only when you don't even have the game files anymore (streaming)

how?

why is this game series even popular

heavy viral marketing

reddit-tier jokes

block the game with firewall. i think it might work

what do they mean by required? what if i cap my net to 1kbps?

Is this just a new form of Denuvo, or what is causing these massive uploads?

16 years ago, when steam was created.

>steam invented drm
never go full retard

steams DRM is optional to the developer

go back to grade school and learn some reading comprehension, shit for brains

based retard

Making digital stores popular

And the next thing you will blame is the internet because it is required for this sort of thing to even exist?

How can this be true? 2 MB/s NOT Mbit is actually a lot so have 10000 people play the game and you can ddos anything you want.

Which braindead company would use this for DRM?

digital stores were inevitable, and steam is infinitely more benign than any of the DRM back then.

uhh 2K Games?

t. illiterate brainlet

what are you talking about. starforce was really good drm. no problems whatsoever

What program is that to see outgoing traffic? Is it just the windows activity monitor?

of course the mods and jannies PAID by Xi Jinping will delete this post because it's "gibberish shit", fucking kill yourselves jannies and mods

steamcels are going all out today

Jokes on you im overage

Honestly, this. My internet connection doesn't even have 2MB/s upload, although it's a shitty ADSL line.
I'm not even sure what it could possibly be uploading over the space of say, four hours, unless it's literally a constant stream of what you're doing in-game.

I only have 1mb/s of upload max

My bad but you did it too.

The same thing happened with Quake Champions... It caused so much confusion and works on my machine(tm) posting that it just ended up doing major damage to its playerbase.

Were far past at this point.

EGS streaming your personal data to their servers in china in real time

That's hilarious. Pay piggies deserve to be fucked in the ass.

the moment someone wanted to go further with it than CD keys. so long ago in other words.

I buy from GOG and i have no problems. What now?

you're talking about the company that sent private investigators to a rando's house to harrass him

This is just elaborate preemptive anti-Stadia propaganda, to make gamers think their internet connection isn't good enough to handle constant game streaming.

>EGS shills working overtime in this thread
Fuck off chinks

>to make gamers think their internet connection isn't good enough to handle constant game streaming.
I know mine isn't because I'm not mentally retarded.

I remember when I was a kid and assassin's creed 2 came out. I really liked the first so of course I got permission to leave the boarding school and pick it up. Came back and installed it only to be greeted by a prompt to sign in to uplay, whatever the fuck that is. The site was blocked of course because of school internet so I got one of the teachers logins and signed up to play my $100 game. So I sign in and oops, all network traffic outside of http is blocked by the school. What bullshit but fuck I guess I can't do anything about it so I gave up and put it away for when I went home for the holidays. After the weekend with others coming back from their homes I saw someone playing it so of course I rushed over and asked him how he got it to work. "I downloaded it over the weekend, do you want the crack?" "No, I bought my copy. Thanks anyway". Fast forward a few weeks to when I go home with my unrestricted internet and I sign the fuck in to this garbage uplay shit and begin to play. Suddenly, the game begins to lag and then a giant prompt shows up "Cannot connect to serve, please check connection and try again".

I still haven't finished assassin's creed 2.

I still don't get that. There can't possibly be anything mechanics-wise that's revolutionary in the game.
I refuse to believe anyone gives a shit about the story. What were they even protecting?

lol, fucking tasmanian

can't you just block its connection to the internet in the firewall?
or pirate it

>mfw i have 100kbits/s upload

also why does this game needs a gorillion processes running.

Do you retards not understand what DRM is? If it doesn't run unobstructed then you don't get to play.

Hows it feel to be late and retarded?

>9 ms
Get a better wireless router you mong.

>in offline mode
might as well pirate it

might as well not play it since its a mp game.

my personal data is filled with shemales though?

Fucking retard buyfags and epic fags.
I never have those issues.

i hope you learned your lesson about buying DRM

That was 10 years ago.

How old are you? If you aren't over 30 then shut the fuck up.

i blame god

First major game of its kind.
Inerta is a hell of a drug.

The birth of a pirate.
Sad origin story, user.

Heh, I guess we still have the best version.
Once again.

we wouldstill be stuck with 7-10 DVD's if we didnt have these stores and games would still have DRM

I also didn't finish assasians creed 2 for technical reasons
My laptop crashed in a certain area because it couldnt handle the water, it was an optional side area so I could have just went past it and accepted never getting the special item but I was too autistic to do that.

What I did run into drm problems with was akrham city, I could run the game alright but I could never get my preorder bonus codes to work.

Why were pc gamers unwilling to adopt blue ray

I'm 31. Now kill yourself fucking retarded faggot

Thought saying 30 would be too obvious huh?

Somewhere, some underpaid sweatshop Chink is combing through your collection of shemale porn to see if there's any valuable data to process.

Living the dream.

>Actually wanting to play boredomlands
lmao

lel I just remembered those "you can only install it 3 times (and if you change your hardware it conts as a new installation) and afterwards you have to call support" DRMs of the mid-late 2000s
fun times

because publishers won't print them?
if they forced them down our throats it would work
anyway it doesnt really matter these days you would still have to connect to internet there's 0 chance a publisher would make a game DRM free The disc would become paperweight after a few years

Ironically since it has LAN support a pirate can just use virtual LAN to play it online.
Buycucks cucked again.

No, i was actually born in 1988. So i was 19 when ass creed 1 came out. Unlike you who was a fucking kid when asscreed 2 was out.

forgot that BL still has lan support

lmao

I was 16. Everything under 18 is a child.

So? When your childhood video game memories are assassin's creed 2 then you should off yourself no matter what age you are. If you don't like it, there's a website called reddit that's perfect for him
