An installer requiring admin permissions is pretty common.

@EA_Darko Not anymore, although people do try to hack their way around it. While its true that more software in general are wanting permission on first installs, some should not be accepted and its hard for regular users to know wtf accepting it would mean.
I agree with Aelaen, consumers that bought something, often is more in the firing range than those who get the game illegally. going through hoops to play a bought product that one might not be able to always refund.
It would be less outragous if one had to root people devices with all of these gaming softwares compared to what is done to console consumers.
Also that these apps can add more security risks towards the consumers, so I would suggest if you can't play the games Aelaen, is to try to get a refund if just bought it and can't play it.
