Unlike the usual case where DRM is implemented out of greed, [[Thor]] has implemented these checks out of security concerns: the game is popular with younger people who may not be fully aware of the dangers of software piracy and often end up with malware on their systems when they pirate games. It is therefore advisable to message [[Thor]] over [mailto:[email protected] e-mail] or [https://discord.gg/piratesoftware Discord] if you encounter this message, as he is willing to assist people with removing potential malware from their system.
