That is pretty normal. Operation Flashpoint cranked up bot accuracy to full aimbot levels if it detected the DRM check was bypassed. Serious Sam 3 added an unkillable scorpion enemy. One of the Ghostbusters made ghosts unkillable. And so forth
That said: My understanding is more that the way the DRM check was bypassed meant the secondary check (whenever a starmap was loaded) errored out because the function was missing.
Divinity 2: Ego Draconis had terrible DRM check bypass effects, but they ended up plaguing the game for legitimate players moreso than pirates. Larian ended up releasing a DRM removed version of the game months after release because of how bad it was.
