10 Anti-Piracy Measures In Video Games That Were Total Genius
2. The Witcher 2 – Making Love To Old Grannies
A particularly gross and bizarre punishment await those who nicked
themselves a copy of The Witcher 2. Especially if they were awaiting
some love-making scenes with Geralt St. Sexy himself.
Originally, CD Projekt Red attempted to contact these pirates and request them via a frank letter whether they could pay for the friggin' game, or be smacked around the head with a big stick. In other words, get taken to court.
A lot of players, who pirated the game or not, were pretty upset by claims of being able to track down someone's IP and location seamlessly, so the company gave up on that end.
Considering how the game was pirated literally millions of times, it's no surprise to see them so upset about the ordeal.
The developers must have decided somewhere down the development cycle to ruin the fun for those who wanted Geralt to get down and dirty, so instead of pretty lasses and fair maidens, he'll start making love with tubby old ladies.
No, they don't strip themselves down at all. In fact, Geralt's surprisingly unmoving mug seems to clip right through their thick necks every time he's going for a kiss. Not to mention the pleasured moans from a woman with a fixed expression.
It's not the sex scene pirates wanted, but it's the sex scene that CD Projekt Red thought they deserved.
