"If you need an example of a game developer doing something (well, a lot
of things) right, look no further than CD Projekt Red and their latest
multi-platform role-playing game, Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt. The
developers are aggressively breaking all of the usual obnoxious video
game industry norms: they're releasing most of the title's downloadable
content (DLC) for free (two each week), they've avoided annoying
pre-order exclusives, they're receptive to fan feedback, and perhaps
most importantly to many gamers, they've taken a repeated, strong and
vocal position against DRM."

They also included an amusing dig at DRM in the newly released game.

Share and enjoy,
