Quantum Break: Jack gets an eye patch if Remedy thinks you’ve pirated the game

Users who pirate Quantum Break on Windows PC have found that their in-game protagonist, Jack Joyce, sports a pirate-like eye patch.

You can check out what Joyce looks like above.

On its FAQ page, developer Remedy says that the eye patch means “DRM might’ve accidentally triggered.”

“Reboot the game and eat a lot of vitamin C,” the FAQ continues.

What do you think of this tongue-in-cheek way of tackling piracy?

Steve is the founder of Stevivor, which itself is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’ -- that made more sense back in 2001 when Steve first arrived in the country and Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.

Steve has recently gathered a career's worth of writing on swright.au, his personal portfolio.
