Please tell this to big game developers that make you have a persistent internet connection to play, or only allow the key to be used 3 times etc.

Things like that only punish legitimate players, if it's pirated, those safeguards are removed and aren't a problem.

Having frequented large amounts of game forums over the past 10 years, I can assure you: The big game developers get told exactly this hundreds of times a day.
I was actually just playing Assassin's Creed 2 a few minutes ago.

No internet connection required.

It was very convenient.
