Heroes V No Copy Protection = Increase in Sales

[Starheaven]

I have been playing Heroes M&M for a long time and I am looking forward to Heroes V with reservations. I am deeply concerned what the copy right protection software will do to my PC.
I have no pirated software and buy all my games.
Game publishers/developers should stop punishing people who support their product legitimately with copy protection.

For this reason I may not purchase the game and am sure many many others feel the same.

Ubisoft take a leaf out of Stardock with its aclaimed strategy game Galactic Civlizations 2, no copy protection and is currently number One in PC sales. The game has a huge fan base simply by word of mouth and trusting people and the support Stardock provide. Each game has a unique serial number that requires registering to obtain updates. It gives no reason for people to look at hacking the game or going to piracy.
If only all the publishers/developers open their eyes and see that copy protection frustrates and drives away people and does not increase their sales.
I sincerely hope others take note what Stardock and Paradox have achieved ***Huge Sales*** No copy protection.

I wish UBI, Nival could just learn! Their new baby (H5) is nearly as great as I hoped for, but ofcourse they ruin everything wit hStarForce.

But hey we need morons and yerks in the world too along with nice and respectful people or there would be no balance between "good" and "bad"
