The more I read about UBI Soft and their idiotic DRM system, the more happy I am I have not wasted another dime on them... until they change their draconian system, looks like me and many other fans of this series are going to let these new releases pass by. I am NOT giving any of my hard earned money to any company that can control my actions in my own home or any other place I happen to be. This DRM system does just that.

I wonder what happens to all those who bought into this system should something happen in the future, say a company buy out or perhaps lack of activity on the game servers for logging in and the company shuts them down? There have been a few great games that this is already happened to in the past.. Space and Beyond is one I can think of off the top.. How do you play your simulation then when the servers go offline?

I still play games from 10-15 years ago. Had they required this kind of setup, they would all be useless to me today.
