drm makes it a lot harder to pirate

Aggressive DRM mostly punishes paying customers. The game will probably be cracked anyways.

Couldn't be more right. I went 100% on GoG after not being able to play the Steam games I wanted to play during an internet outage because of dumb always online requirement.

DRM punishes paying customers. DRM free is the best choice for anyone who enjoys games, and supporting the devs is the best way to get more games you enjoy.

DRM free isn't pro-piracy it is pro-consumer.

I couldn't give a shit what pirates are doing. I pay for my games and I don't want DRM ruining my experience.
