A lot it has to do with the "have to be online" BS. Fuck, its annoying on every other game as your computer/console starts up, takes like a minute at times to try to log on or some BS.

Jeez, are gaming companies intentionally trying to drive away their customers?

They're training you to buy the games online rather than in brick and mortar stores. It's going to lower distribution costs big time. That's why you can go online to Steam and buy brand new releases for $24.99 instead of 60 bucks at your local game store.

It's the future whether you like it or not. It's not all bad.

Yeah that's fine, I'll buy a game online, and that's no problem.

But when they start tying all this mandatory being online to even play the game or some DRM BS, that's when it starts getting stupid and bad and the corporations start clusterfucking shit up big time.

LOL trust me, I worked on their side, and I realized how idiotic they how with this shit. Believe me, I know how these corporate idiots think.

"Who cares if we make the product unplayable for everyone, just as long as we don't lose a nickel on some potential perceived threat of some piracy!"
