I’ve been reading a lot about how Ubisoft’s new DRM which will first be rolled out in Assassin’s Creed 2 is designed to combat piracy but I think people have it wrong.
Everyone knows that such a massive change would piss of their customers and be completely ineffective, even Ubisoft (they’ve acknowledged that it will be cracked). Piracy is a nice big easy scapegoat for them to use so as to avoid having to address the real reason they’re doing this, which is to stop second-hand sales and rentals. The new DRM stops second-hand sales and rentals completely.
