SecuROM is not as bad as alleged

Anticipation first:
The game and the two patches (approx 600MB), the game under Windows XP is stable. With Vista I have because, unfortunately (or thank God) no experience. Even the game in the LAN funtioniert without problems. If you liked part one, which is also like this part. Who wiedermal expects Diablo2-killer, which is of course wiedermal disappointed because there will be no other game like Diablo 2!
Probably (I'm afraid it anyway) is itself Diablo3 not be able to trigger the same feeling as that time Diablo2.

About records of the copy in the system I do not know so much, but it interests me also not particularly. If Sony or Securom think the imensen heap data (which they collect perhaps, that no one knows so well) to do something, then if you please: When mass can thus probably begin hardly something useful.
Otherwise, people read too little, who claim here that you can not sell used the game or the game is useless if Ascaron goes bust. There are very simple and clear information on the Sacred 2 website:

1. Each game can be activated at the same time and 2x must be installed and played simultaneously on 2 PC within a household. The game works in solo play and the LAN. For Internet Games is a version of the game each player is required.

2. If the game is to be sold, the license is released again when uninstalling the game (Internet connection required). Should the PC be broken and you therefore no longer be able to uninstall it, Ascaron offers a small tool for downloading, which allows you to release the license back (with serial number).

3. Ascaron promises in the event that the support for Sacred 2 is set to release a patch that eliminates the Online Activation. In 10 years it will be this game so probably no longer need to activate (provided one has been drawn at times the last patch). The same has also announced at the time by the way Valve for Half-Life 2, but since not many people were crying ...

So: First read and make smart, then rail against the product. And if you do not know exactly, you should hold back with half-truths and conjecture.
