I'm still on the fence about the DRM free, yet non-free games debate. If the software was a tool like lets say Python or nginx or an operating system like Trisquel, then I 100% agree that it should be FLOSS.

A game though is pretty self contained and serves one purpose. It doesn't try to run your web server. You don't use it to build things or surf the web. It is an isolated experience and you use it to enjoy the storyline and consume the media. Video games are art and should be in the same light as music and movies.

I'm not going to deny something like Grand Theft Auto V (which the PC version is clearly the best) in favor of something else "just because its libre" and have to deal with lower quality.

Yes, the game does have software due to the engine, but it is entertainment. Period.
