>dev not only creates their own engine for the game, but also creates their own operating system for it
>when you run the game, it starts a virtual machine without a gui and runs the game inside it
>this was done as an anti-piracy measure; all of the actual game's files and executable were foreign files that couldn't be run by windows, mac, or linux, and could only be run on the dev's operating system
>if the operating system can't be understood and cracked, the game can't be pirated

w-woah...
