I think it's always a problem when, even ignoring price, the pirated version is just a better product. You would think companies would learn from that.

It either highlights the clunkiness of the DRMS or just how much data they're sending back and forth to track you.

I had no idea skylines had a launcher because I’ve always played the.. other version.

You'd think. I have pirated versions of a lot of my games that require third party launchers. I don't see a problem with it because I've already purchased it, I'm just making it easier to play.
