Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

MODERATORS
Control freaks laying out blank canvases for themselves and taking away your consumer rights one cut at a time. As a legitimate owner of the Mafia games on PC, I can report having a significantly better experience with pirated copies since they don't require their terrible launcher.
How pirated is that copy if you own a license?
How is it purchaser's problem that entity selling licenses are unable or unwilling to deliver the the product beyond the license? Or if they do, it is on their terms lol
It's pirated because it's not through official channels and has the DRM removed, including the requirement for the 2K launcher.
As for the rest of your question, so long as I've understood that mess properly, it's the buyer's problem when companies start taking away the games we've paid for becauae they're hiding behind a license despite never disclosing the purchase had an expiry date or conveniently left out what that date is as time of purchase.
