"@ehjovan Sounds serious. If people are warning like that there is probably a security privacy or scam issue going on. Better safe than sorry delete it until you know exactly what is happening. Your data and safety come first. ⚠"

"Another example of piracy being a service problem. Consumer rights for software used to be absolute trash. You were forced to make blind purchases on games and if the game didn't run you were screwed. Now steam has a [--] hour refund system which is incredibly helpful in most cases We still have nothing for long term cases like RE4. Intentionally sabotaging performance is something that should be taken seriously. If minimum requirements change drastically you are deceiving your customers. @StormslayerDev @0_software This. In the days of no demos I used to follow that "Pirate try see if it runs"
