    Therefore, if you have the slightest interest in custom DLC via
    CustomsForge, this is your last chance to pick up the Cherub Rock DLC, which
    is a pre-requisite: https://customsforge.com/index.php?/topic/901-how-to-use-custom-dlcs-in-rs2014-remastered/

    It's even more insulting because they are replacing it with Rocksmith+, a subscription based, always online version. Funny how this happens just
    one year after the release of the plus garbage, and months after the
    mobile version. If people that try plus found out that there is a better version that does not require a subscription and has 9 years worth of
    DLC music, no one would even touch Plus.

    To make matters worse, RS2014 is currently broken on Windows 11 and it
    won't run without making some adjustments to thread limiting and messing
    a bit so that it will accept the drivers for the real tone cable. It
    runs perfectly on Windows 10, but because in the future Steam Support
    for W10 may go away as it happened with 7, and this game may not play
    nice at all with Linux and Proton...

    Well, I would recommend obtaining a pirated version, supposing that they managed to crack Denuvo. Or simply never ever play for any Ubi Soft
    game. Capcom may remove Denuvo once they meet the sales goal, but
    Ubisoft never. The version for RS2014 is sadistic enough to limit
    activations the way Securom used to do in Bioshock.
