Dear NoFate

[furiousTaher]

We can't look after every need of any single person.
At it's release Venice will require the original game.

Any workaround/bypass/etc.. is not planned and i won't promise anything here.
We are aware of the situation but the technical restrictions are given.
It's not impossible to bypass them but NoFaTe is on his own with that choice.

He'll decide. But i guess he did already.

you should post this in an announcement... too many people are asking about this topic now.
close/delete any other thread related to "will i have to buy origami?"

If im not mistaking, You dont buy a Legitimate game, you Buy a Legitimate KEY so you are able to connect with Origin, so if you download a Game its practically a Valid Copy unless you paste a crack in it, just like the Badcompany2 one, Right? if im wrong just correct me

.dlf is the answer. The game files itself don't have it. Figure it out what i mean with it.

hint: .dlf is a file ending.

This dlf file is generated by Origin. Each dlf file is unique so bf3 will not work for you if you just copy paste from other sources. You can find some details about dlf and Origami searching on google so you will know this isn't a joke, this files is real, and will not let you play with cracked copy.
