If you pirated Grand Theft Auto IV, the camera would wobble and shake uncontrollably — a perpetual state of drunkenness. If you tried to download Guster MP3s from Kazaa in the early 2000s, all the vocals would be replaced with meows. Now add The Sims 4 to the list of entertainingly bizarre anti-piracy (intentional or otherwise).
Pirated copies of ‘The Sims 4’ are creating pixelated works of art
Reports are coming in that torrented copies of Electronic Arts’ latest life simulator will permanently pixelate your character, which happens normally when you take a shower but not when you, say, try to play guitar or eat a sandwich. And it seems to spread, culminating in a work of art / accidental Minecraft homage.
Even if you legitimately bought copy of The Sims 4, get ready for some truly disturbing imagery. Demon babies? Oh yeah...
