            How else can they tell you about all the great deals and live streams they’ve been paid to promote? Won’t anyone think of the ads?!?!

            Ps, Blizzard did the same shit with their battle.net client when they removed the ability to pop out the friends list like 3 years ago (or centuries, it feels like), forcing you to use the client just to communicate with friends. All so they could blast you with advertisements to other services they provide.

      Funnily enough, you probably own plenty already, and that attitude will change as soon as there’s a game in your wheelhouse you want.

      Everyone always says this, but it’s hardly every true. Too lazy too go through your comments to see if it’s true, but people say shit just for upvotes all the time. Probably the same here.

        Oddly enough, I have managed to avoid DRM-infested games quite well so far.

        I have far to many other games on my list I still need to play without DRM, to worry about new ones infested with it.

        How very bold and presumptuous of you to dismiss almost everyone here claiming they prefer not to buy buggy DRM ridfled games as liars.

        Judging by your history though it’s not exactly surprising to say the least.

        I’ve been doing well with offline games so far. Personally, I think that there are so many, so, so, so, so, so many games out there, both free and paid, that obsessing over “that one game” makes little sense to me.
