To me the thing that sucks the most is the civilians end up suffering the most.
From those killed in reprials like Samsai's operation Anthropoid points out to the reverse when germans were expelled from the Czech republic with vigillantee military squads killed thousands.
Regardless who writes history , the common person seems to suffer it the most. :(

Quoting: AkitakeThe main reason the game was pulled from itch.io is that it's not representative of what the game is currently, as it has stopped being updated years ago. People would get a buggy experience, very little content, get tired of it and move on.

Better to have people be patient and get the proper experience as devs intended, and continuous updates.

As for DRM free releases, it's a choice that's been made. Most gamers are fine with using Steam, even Linux gamers.
Pushing for DRM-free games is understandable, but, in my opinion, it's also unreasonable in this day and age when looking to make a living out of a product, especially as an indie-developper team of three.
DRM games as mentioned by Cybolic don't protect against piracy.
Often they harm the paying customer while the pirates play just fine.
Some DRM today is as intrusive as root kits (See Valorant and Black Desert Online)
Also DRM is how games die. Some games stop being playable , not because OS or way to emulate them but because the DRM servers are down.
If people want to pirate they will. What stops piracy is good service and convenience.
If i remember well the devs of Darkwood even put their own game on torrents because they rather people torrent it than buy it on grey market sites that cause legal/financial hassles for them.
