Fantastic Anti-piracy Statement

[darkely]

Another reason is that it's completely absurd, not to mention disrespectful to the customer.

It's not absurd if a company wants to protect its product.

Since when did protecting your creation become inappropriate? the Steam profile linking thing is helpful for weeding out pirates who don't deserve customer support.

If someone wants to pirate the game they are completely within their right to do so. Why should legitimate customers suffer for their actions?

Because logging in through Steam is so terribly hard and makes people suffer? nope not really. The legitimate customer can play the game with no issues and people who didn't buy the game get no support.
