this is kinda fucking stupid like are you at least gonna give a refund or something

Once a user agrees to the EULA, which probably includes some kind of disclaimer that you don’t own the game, but instead a license to play it - and this is how all proprietary software works - and that because of this that license is able to be revoked if you don’t follow rules set out in advance by the developer. Basically what I’m saying is Richard Stallman told you guys about proprietary software but you didn’t listen. You made your bed, now lie in it.
