As pay to play goes, since i saw it mentioned here, i have to say, i won't go there for a singleplayer games. You have to draw a line somewhere, and there is where i construct a reinforced concrete wall.
An MMO, i can understand, it really is a service, and your playing in an online persistant world. But for a singleplayer game, all for the sake of pretending to stop piracy..... that is a resounding "f*ck no!" from me. I would rather see the entire PC gaming market DIE then pay to play single player games. Id sooner go out and get an Xbox360, and park my ass on the couch. Heck, it would be a boon, i wouldnt have to continualy upgrade my computer anymore, id be saving in the long run.
And speaking of the long run, its entire possible that in the future, the entire nature of the internet will change if Net neutrality goes away like some people want. Thats going to screw things over bigtime, for everyone, including Ubi's DRM.
