    This has been repeated again and again but the existence of many JP games with invasive DRMs and anti-cheats prove this point wrong.

    Dealing with bad-faith forum posters who tell you to quit or say your concern is in the minority:
    1. Do not engage in their bad-faith attacks.
    2. Warn others of their bad-faith if they have a long history of it.
    3. Continue the productive conversation and silently report them for personal attacks.
    Be firm but polite, recognize their tactics and don't fall into their traps.

    The game is sold outside of Japan. In some European countries this is actually law. In the USA its not but its basically suicide to include a DRM like that. Different cultures.

    Sure, but not once has anyone provided the exact law in question that prohibits SE from wrapping the game with some rudimentary anti-cheat or detection (not even within the memory allocated to FF14). The only source of this misinformation is from the developer team itself.
