Diablo 3 is definitely not easier to crack. You need to know x86 assembly, and on top of that beat Blizzard's reflection-ish protection that checks for modified code. JavaScript is much easier to deal with.
In addition to that, just cracking the Diablo 3 client isn't enough, because a lot of the game logic runs exclusively on the server. For example, even with tens of thousands of test runs of a specific monster, you still won't know the correct item drop probability table, because that table is never sent to the client. Only the result of the server-side dice roll checked against the server-side loot table.
- __--__ 14y ago>Diablo 3 is definitely not easier to crack. Moot point. Any client software can and will be cracked, regardless of how difficult it is to crack. Which is mtgx's point - online games are easier to secure because you can put logic and validation on a remote server. No DRM needed. Your example of Diablo 3 only proves his point. It's not the DRM that makes Diablo 3 hard to crack - it's the server side logic and validation.
