It would seem that a lot of games are going this route. We either learn to work with it or spend our time with the games we have on disc that do not require nothing but a computer. I suspect the game will be playable offline. Jutlands program lets you play without a connection for up to 7 days. Does this limit the base of people who will purchase the game, sure. Probably not enough to warrant offering the game in any other format. We have to remember, this is a preliminary release. The thoughts of the consumer will be addressed and a happy medium found. I do not think how distributing the game and handling the internet connection is set in stone yet. I do not understand why there is such resistance to distributing games in this manner. It does not bother me in the least.
