Like the article says, it's supposed to be a one-time activation check. Not a requirement to play the game, they were supposed to have learned this lesson with Assassin Creed 2's DRM. This should open up some trouble for misleading customers. permalink fedilink source parent [–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 month ago* Yes. Correct. Unless you are literally a child, you should have been able to figure this out by now. What are you a 'victim' of? ... False Marketing? Sure, yeah, that's bad. But at some point, you have to be able to realize that the lying liars who lie, are, most likely, lying again. How things should be != How things are. You live in the latter. If you wanna change that, good! But the thinking alone doesn't make it so. permalink fedilink source parent
