User blog comment:Prolietor Dominus/Skyrim PC update kills third party patch usage/@comment-4625386-20111123104036/@comment-3152761-20111123161312

Well from what I've read on the Pirate Bay (Most common pirating site) is that their currently getting screwed over big with Skyrim, there were already cracks out there but any new ones are impossible. It also leaves them unable to play any DLC's or update any patches from what I've read on the Bethsoft forums. Plus because Skyrim is so graphic intensive, most people who pirate games won't be able to have satisfactory gameplay. To me it seems pointless to torrent the game if your just going to be buying $300+ worth of hardware to run it.
