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.

Any software engineers who work for big companies have any insight on this? Don't these places keep their own source? Or is it just on somebody's laptop that no one's seen since 2015?
So I was listening to the WAN show, and Luke said that the DRM was stacked with booby traps that broke the game mechanically in a bunch of ways if the DRM was bypassed without also removing them. The crack did; their version didn't.
