I remember in 2009
being extremely anal about every digital game I bought; in fear of being ripped
Now in 2017 I've resigned to realizing that PC gaming is all an honor system
Developers may or may not patch the game they sold you
Developers may or may not sell you a functional game
Digi sites might shut down along with your extensive library (Desura)
Most games are easy to find and torrent, shortly after their release, with an army
of leechers and seeders
Review keys often go straight onto key sites
Developers can be eternally undersold by those who've stocked up on bundles
hosting their keys
etc, etc,
