mass-effect-643 It has come to gamers’ attention that the digital rights management software included in the PC version of Mass Effect only allows three lifetime installations even if the user uninstalls the game.

This was confirmed by a tech support representative at EA who stated that no additional activations are given if the user uninstalls the game. Those who have reached their three install limit must contact EA technical support to request additional activations.

The game was previously highlighted for, what many called, ‘draconian’ DRM that required players to reactivate their copy every ten days via an internet connection. Though that plan was dropped, the shipped copy of the game lets players only install three times.
