    I will never buy a game that requires me to be always online.

            How else can they tell you about all the great deals and live streams they’ve been paid to promote? Won’t anyone think of the ads?!?!

            Ps, Blizzard did the same shit with their battle.net client when they removed the ability to pop out the friends list like 3 years ago (or centuries, it feels like), forcing you to use the client just to communicate with friends. All so they could blast you with advertisements to other services they provide.

            Well, fuck! I’ll stick to my xbox 360 version, then.

      Funnily enough, you probably own plenty already, and that attitude will change as soon as there’s a game in your wheelhouse you want.

      Everyone always says this, but it’s hardly every true. Too lazy too go through your comments to see if it’s true, but people say shit just for upvotes all the time. Probably the same here.

        Oddly enough, I have managed to avoid DRM-infested games quite well so far.

        I have far to many other games on my list I still need to play without DRM, to worry about new ones infested with it.

            GOG is awesome, I do wish they had a native Linux client though, the only ones I’ve seen just package wine and run the windows version (also they use Snap 🤮).

        I’ve been doing well with offline games so far. Personally, I think that there are so many, so, so, so, so, so many games out there, both free and paid, that obsessing over “that one game” makes little sense to me.

        Or they might just pirate the games that do that. Save money and play offline all you want.

        How very bold and presumptuous of you to dismiss almost everyone here claiming they prefer not to buy buggy DRM ridfled games as liars.

        Judging by your history though it’s not exactly surprising to say the least.

          Lmfao, I specified one person.

          And that’s rich coming from the person upvoting their own comments in a 3 day old post that’s dead….

            Your use of “everyone” in this context seems to imply a broad generalization including more than one person.

            And that’s rich coming from the person upvoting their own comments in a 3 day old post that’s dead….

            Ooh baseless accusations, gotta love those, perfect thing to whip out when your arguments are weak and someone’s calling you on it. Doesn’t surprise me in the least darling. Also it’s quite rich coming from someone who posts the same post five times in multiple communities rather than using the cross-post function, a tactic commonly used by vote and post-count farmers, really not a good look on you bud.

              Uhh my app doesn’t have the function and I’ve explained that multiple times in my comments you went through!

              Everyone can be used to refer to singular or multiple! TYL.
