Anti-piracy company Denuvo is tired of gamers saying its DRM is bad for games: "It's super hard to see, as a gamer, what is the immediate benefit" (www.gamesradar.com)

It's trickling down folks. If Ubisoft can pocket 20% more profits for their games that means you the gamer will get 20% more updates for your favorite games. Really, that's how it works.

Can't tell if you dropped an /s or not.

In case you didn't: If they made 20% more profit then they didn't spend that on updates. That's how profit works.

I don't think anyone on Lemmy seriously believes in trickle down economics.

I for one definitely feel like big corporations are pissing on me.

It is generous to call that only a trickle though.

See, that's what they want you to believe. Nobody's pissing on you, they're taking a big fat shit and you're in ground zero.
