Rock, Paper, Shotgun has a response from GSC Game World to
yesterday's report suggesting some sort of always-on DRM is in the works for
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2. Word is that while such a plan is being considered for the first-person shooter sequel, they have not yet made a final decision:
The idea of implementing DRM came in as a possible anti-piracy solution. You know the severe level of commercial piracy we have here in ex-USSR region. This said however, there is no firm decision to go for DRM with S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 as of now. Be assured, we do realize how uncomfortable this solution is for the players, so we’ll continue looking for most effective, yet acceptable for all, way of protecting the game by the time of its release.

Man I would love all major developers to go online only. This will have a positive impact throughout the gaming industry. It might make some of you get educated about game design and make some awesome single player and multiplayer games. Then maybe you guys will feel what it is like when someone steals from you (pirating).
I hear a lot of people talking about community here. How do you feel if the community was on your servers and you only sold half those numbers? So now you are stuck with people stealing, hacking and God knows what on servers that your evil corporation pays for.
*Disclaimer: I am not talking to everyone*
