Simple solution, wait for someone to crack the game if it's not already and bam. Offline mode for your single player game
Between always online games, and Starfield confirmed not having a physical disc release, I am weary for the future of gaming.
Don't worry.
At the end of the day, a good piece of art will always be the one thing that stays in people's minds.
Sure, "triple A" gaming might crash and burn if it's built on endless growth and monetization, but indie games will always be there.
Blame the era of rampant gaming piracy. No disc is fine, useless overhead that's just more plastic in a landfill.
They want us to eventually just pay monthly forever to own nothing, that is where we are going,.
This will lead to more piracy -- I am sure some community is already working to reverse engineer the servers for D4 without blizzard.
Also fuck bobby kotick for ruining a whole generation of gaming.
