Yes, it's a game that denies us our fair use rights enjoyed for every other copyrighted product.

So what? It's a computer game.

If we don't continue to post to that effect, our voices will be buried by all the excuse makers who believe that we who are offended by Ubi's contempt for its most loyal Customers have no standing simply because we haven't drunk the kool-aid and bought this insult of a game.

I tire of hearing this crap a thousand times a day. I don't care if you buy it or not. I really seriously don't. It makes absolutely zero difference to me what you do with your money. Why do people feel the need to tell me about it in 100 different threads? Do they go over to the Dangerous Waters forums and spam that forum with threads about why they don't play that game?

I have never killed anyone but I'm against murder. I don't own the game and I'll be happy to tell people why. My opinion is valid and I won't be shouted down, ESPECIALLY by those who speciously insist that ownership is necessary in order to have an informed opinion.

Just because your opinion is valid, doesn't mean you're not a jerk for spamming it all across as forum devoted to game owners to discuss the game they....you know....own.

When a game is used to rewrite copyright law and deny fair use rights to the purchasers, we're talking about lots more than a game. It must end here or it will spread.

Apologies to whomever said this first and if I paraphrase but, "Not buying SH5 does not make you the moral equivalent of Nelson Mandela."

Nobody should EVER come to Subsim and be able to conclude that SH5 is a game worth purchase consideration until UBI removes the DRM and resale prohibition.

BULLSH**. Your opinion is just that - YOUR OPINION. People should be able to come to a forum devoted to a game they like and discuss the game. They do not have to subscribe to your opinion to come to this forum. You're saying that every thread needs to have YOUR OPINION in it?

Until then whether the game is fun or not is not a valid consideration, any more than whether poison-laced kool-aid tastes good. Who cares if it tastes good? You can't drink it.

More BS...err...your opinion. It's not valid to you but that doesn't mean it's not valid to others. Forcing your opinion on others whether they like it or not just makes you a bully.
