Anytime I see RPG, I expect a table with people around it, pen and paper, and possibly dice.

If they think DRM is good for their business they're right using it. I know it's not good for me, so I'll stay away from it. In my view, DRM makes piracy look good, sometimes law it's not made in the best general interest.

I remember when Helloween4545 compared DRM and piracy in a video, saying that people who pirate games have so many advantages compared to people who have to bother with DRM that it's ridiculous.

I have 0 tolerance to DRM.
Even the gamers so beloved Steam.
The unique DRM I stand is Direct Render Manager.
As for my personal platforms preference :
1 - Humble Store / Bundle / Weekly <-- I only buy DRM-Free bundles / games
2 - Desura <-- This has DRM-Free Linux games too
3 - GoG.com <-- For DRM-Free Windows games, and future Linux ones
4 - Groupees. <-- Sporadically they have some interesting bundles of the style

As long as my downloads/installs are not limited and doesn't restrict single player, Having DRM does not dissuade me from buying a game... hell Steam is one big DRM platform. I think online-focused games get more benefits from DRM since most need you to authenticate a CD key or whatnot with their servers to play online. Pirating games with DRM also means you don't get updates, since you would have to crack every single updated executable. I do agree games like Sim City have taken it too far, though. There has to be some kind of balance.

Man I was really hoping mists of stagnation would go linux. I was looking into the comments and got a tentative maybe from it, Oh well...we'll see.
The games listed above + Popup Dungeons, Draconian Wars all look pretty good. Nice to see NeonXSZ on that list as well.
Worth mentioning was CubeZ is going UE4, so possible we may see a port of that as well.

My impression is that DRM is mostly there to prevent games from leaking before the retail launch, that way it at least takes pirates a few days to prepare a crack before torrenting goes rampant and preorderers won't pirate the game just to get it earlier.

As long as the DRM they use is Steam, Origin, or Uplay, then I don't care what developers think. I find all three platforms good enough to use. :D

I can only speak for myself on this. I don't pirate games, so releasing a game DRM free will not produce a lost sale. However, releasing a game with bad or overly restrictive DRM will produce a lost sale. In some cases, I may buy a game with DRM, but not until it is dirt cheap.
UPlay - I would have pre-ordered Watch Dogs if Ubisoft wasn't using UPlay. I won't even buy it for $1 if it uses UPlay.
Origin - I only buy some EA games on Origin, and that is only if the game is not available on Steam without Origin. I think the only Origin games I have are the Bioware titles.
Steam - If I have to live with some DRM, then this is the place. Even here, I only buy games after the price has dropped and there is a big sale. My average purchase is between $5 and $10. The rare exception are games that are meant for online multiplayer only, like Left for Dead or Killing Floor.
GOG - Gaming heaven. If it is available here, then this is where I buy it. I don't mind paying full price to support a company that believes in DRM free. I pre-ordered The Witcher 2 from GOG.
I don't know why I posted so much, maybe it's because I hate DRM.

There is no magical form of DRM that prevents piracy while being convenient for 100% of paying customers 100% of the time. Hell, is there any magical form of DRM that prevents piracy?

I have a feeling that you are preaching to the choir here.
Personally I hope that the companies with the funds, test every kind of DRM they can think of, so that both proper data can be found on the issue, and so that people might get burnt more often for games they buy, and then hopefully become better informed customers, through necessity.

Wasteland 2 RPG Finally Offers A Linux Version As Promised

I did, and nothing, but few minutes ago it appeared in my library so its all good now:D

Quoting: DisharmonicQuoting: AnonymousThe $15, $30 and $50 tiers don't have "early playable beta access" as a reward.I think they really dropped the ball with how they handled beta access. Once they launched into early access they should have given all backers a key and not asked for extra money(There was an upgrade option).
Quoting: LapinoplIts still not "available on my platform", any ideas why?Have you tried restarting Steam?

By Radegast, 18 April 2014 at 11:27 am UTC
Quoting: toorWell I kickstarted it and I have no link or steam key on their website https://rangercenter.inxile-entertainment.com/You would have to have paid 55$ or more to be eligible for the beta. Otherwise they will send you a key when the first stable version comes out, but that will take some time (until they squeeze as much money as they can from the early access).
How have u managed to get it?
