odd, watching a few streamers with this and there were no indications as such from watching them play. now I do not know if they were given the game copies or merely codes so perhaps the DRM is not active for them.

would be another can of worms if so

I have a four year old gaming rig with minimal upgrades, i5-2600K, 24gb of RAM, GTX 760 iirc. I bet it will run like dogshite on my setup. YouTube streamers need to have decent machines in order to stream and play, so they may just have machines that are a lot more capable than the game itself can overcome
Lot of streamers use dual PC setup to lower the CPU stress.

I watched a streamer with a single PC setup (playing + gaming on the same PC) and he had insane frame drops on a quite decent PC (i7-4790K + GTX 1080)
