TL;DR Summary

Capcom reportedly added DRM to the 11-year-old game Resident Evil Revelations, causing performance issues and breaking mods, before swiftly removing the patch due to player complaints. The introduction of DRM follows the company's vow to crack down on mods, citing concerns about mods being "offensive to public order and morals." This move has led to backlash from players, with the game's recent reviews plummeting to a "Mostly Negative" average. While Capcom has pulled the patch for now, they have indicated that they will re-release it once the issues are resolved, signaling their continued efforts to combat mods.
