Comment on Anon uses GOG
MonkeMischief@lemmy.today 1 day agoI remember everyone freaking out when Spore was gonna have SecuROM that limited it to like 5 installs on a disc, and you were gonna have to ask EA for more if you needed them.
Some of the oldest DRM was weird little cipher wheels or puzzle books required to answer a challenge every time the game booted before it would actually start.
I dare say what GoG is doing is better than we’ve ever had it!

Reading this just unlocked an ancient memory. There was some DOS game that was included in a big pack of cds in sleeves that came for free with the pc my mom bought in 1993 (I think). I could never play it because none of those cds came with manuals and the game required the last word of manual page 5 or something to actually open.
