This reminds me of when the producer at Key was talking about how back in the day when eroge was distributed on floppy disks, they would make the first command of the installer to format the floppy it came on. Since the legit copies were write-protected, the format command would just be ignored, but most people didn't bother to protect pirated copies. So then they'd get support calls from people saying that their game wouldn't install (they tried once and then there was nothing on the disc), and they'd just tell them to "go buy the game".
If that is a protection scheme, props to August for their creativity. I can say for sure that the legal copy of the game doesn't have that sort of issue (it only has a one-time disk check). Go buy the game...
