CD Projekt RED details their DRM policy

In response to recent unofficial statements regarding a DRM solution for The Witcher 2, Adam Kiciñski, CEO of CD Projekt RED, offered the following comment:

“Given the concerns expressed by players and growing media speculation, we have decided to make public our internal DRM policy (located here). Although we are the game’s developer, we obviously won’t be making a unilateral decision on the DRM protection that is applied to The Witcher 2. Nevertheless, our internal rules and guidelines should reassure players. As the game’s developer, we will strive to do everything in accordance with our stated policy.

I would also like to inform all of our fans that no decisions have yet been made as to whether The Witcher 2 will feature DRM protection or what form it might take. As per our policy, we will do our utmost to prevent the adopted DRM solution, if any, from making life difficult for those who acquire legal game copies. I can’t imagine using any protection that would deprive game fans of any of the pleasure that will come from playing the game, as has been the case with other notable PC game titles."
