Read your EULA on ANY game you have ever installed

No strings attached commercial software does not exist that im aware of.

So those without internet connection then... I guess nobody will be travelling back to 1984 and playing SHV... bummer

As for people on deployment... i would imagine that SHV will just be on a long list of games they wont be able to play unfortunate as that really is.

While this is true... it brings this image to mind.



(some folks need to roll with the punches and grow up and realize that this scenario is VERY RARE.)

an excellent point.

but... you have these options

1. buy the game and deal with it

2. dont buy the game and sulk

3. Do either 1 or 2 but in the mean time, stop crying and whining at subsim about it, it is not our fault and nobody here can do anything about it.
