S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 Always-on DRM?

This Russian report seems to indicate that S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 may require a persistent internet connection to play. Here is a rough machine translation of the answer to a question about DRM in GSC Game World's upcoming first-person shooter sequel: "Protection from piracy? Part of the content will be located on the server and downloaded as the game progresses. We need constant access to the Internet. Will finish the text information, code and maximum game. Software piracy hurts us to beat, we fight with him, but in moderation. If people can not buy a licensed version, it is to our advantage, so he bought a pirate, and then wanted to buy a license. In Ukraine, there are different products that people love so much that he buys a license in principle. We want to create just such a product." Thanks RPS via Kotaku Aus/GSC.

STALKER 2 needs to be a substantial update, with a new engine and completely new environments. I completed SOC and CS, but didn't have as much interest in COP - it just seemed less engaging. The biggest problem is that the maps may be huge but there is very little to do, where the sewers, bases and boats provide more entertainment.

I still want to support the developer, so unless the DRM is really tedious I'll probably still grab it.
