buisness 101 - when a company thinks something is good they talk their heads off about it to increase the hype and increase sales but when they fear something is bad or will not go over well they say nothing because it reduces the time people can get unhappy before it goes on sale and find out all the bad stuff they didnt know about

I guess that means, at least this time we'll be spared.

Maybe.. the Ubi talking head on the German Ubi forums who brought us the news did not retract her statement yet.

Petitions are not necessary.

I think UBI know about the consequences, so it's up to them to decide. If they release sims like SHV and Storm Of War with their nextgen DRM it will mark the beginning of the end of the last oldschool PC franchises. People will simply dissappear and the franchises will dissolve in the pabulum they call nextgen.

If their plan for the future is to exclusively sell nextgen garbage to unsuspecting console users, then they should go forward. All the better for smaller companies who still concentrate on the PC, and real games.

I want to play SHV, but it really depends on this one thing. No money for crippleware.
