Look, I own a superb PC, and have a rock solid 10 megaBYTE connection. I can play the game at home, no problem. During this year I've had to travel about 20 hours a week by train to get to my naval university. I also live in a school dorm which doens't have net. But I'm also a cadet on VLCC's (tankers). I don't have net there for 4 months. I have a superb laptop too, 4000 euros worth. I can play anything except for online games. We have access to the ship's net, we can play LAN games, we're allowed to send and recieve 1 mail per day or even log on Yahoo on the Radioman's station. Now tell me, how am I supposed to play SH5? Traffic or speed isn't the issue here. I don't care if it's 1 kbps... I can't play it. Ubisoft is about to implement this DRM on all of it's future games, including the one which I've been waiting for since Il-2... Storm of War. I'll get an HMD just for it, and a good portable stick. How else to waste 8 hours a day? So you see? I can't afford this new direction. I can't afford to support such a dreadful thing. I want to support games, I like collecting game boxes, I don't want to see "Microprose" fall again. But I can't support this, not now. Maybe in the future we'll all have internet running through our blood-nanobots.
