Please pardon my ignorance, but I don't understand why people are so mad. Owning physical media does not mean you can play your game. As long as games talk to servers and receive updates, they can be killed. For example, I own a disc for Overwatch (1), that has been a coaster for several years now. So while I 100% agree this is shitty practice, I feel like this is not new at all. Am I missing something, or are people just discovering this now?
You’re missing something
Isn't overwatch an online only game? Pretty sure I can put any of my single player games in and play without internet. Sure, you don't get updates, patches but the game plays.
