Its Malware. Literally by definition. Who the fuck thinks it's ok to put that on anyone's PC?!?

Someone is having me “fix their pc” to work with it and they understand the problem but say “i only play a little” and “it’s really important to me”

They asked about getting a separate computer just for the game

What stops consumers with bricked PCs from claiming the max amount in small claims? That would drain funds quick
