Even people who bought it physically!?
Yes. The game requires you to be online at all times even though it’s mostly a single player game.
We need laws requiring companies to patch the game to be playable offline when they inevitably shut the servers down. This is unacceptable.
Well, it relies on servers to play it on, so I’m pretty sure that yes, even people who bought it physically will be locked out.
It requires a connection to the servers to play the single player.
So yes, even people who bought a physical version lose the ability to play the game.
Tl;dr: DRM sucks, buying does not imply owning.
