People that bought Resident Evil iOS ports are pissed that now there's a mandatory DRM online check at launch. Punish only the idiot customer who paid $150 and can't play, when pirates laugh at that

Several mobile ports of Resident Evil games now require an internet connection when starting the app.
Many users bought Resident evil for iOS because it was working offline. Perfect for long trips. But a new update adds a mandatory DRM online check at start-up.
I wrote bought, but actually the word is rented. One day Capcom stops updating the games (and this is 100% guaranteed) and a few years later the "owner" gets "This app needs to be updated to run on this iPhone"
Meanwhile, people who pirated a cracked ipa, don't get any issue in playing the game offline. DRM exclusively hurts the paying customers.
Your a massive a-hole if you get amusement out of people getting screwed out of not being able to use a product they paid to use.
29Not laughing at the paying customers but laughing at Capcom.
This move is completely ineffective against pirates (previous IPA already available; future IPA will be just cracked)
Not to mention how hard and inconvenient is to jailbreak a modern iPhone.
Japanese companies watching their IP with the same eyes of Gollum watching the Ring
29Agree.

Well, fuck Capcom I guess.
