After years of remaining steadfast in my boycott, I was quite eager to make my purchase when they announced they'd be on GOG. But it was not to be, as it was not DRM-free and had to be pulled after considerable controversy.[1]

I've not played this new Hitman 2016 reboot, and probably will never be playing it, as it doesn't appear IO Interactive is going to be changing their stance on DRM anytime soon. I've watched some Let's players play it on YouTube and that's reasonably satiated my desire for this new Hitman.

As a fan of Codename 47 through to Blood Money, it's a shame that fans like myself are being tossed to the wayside.
