If a publisher wants to force me into tying an offline-singleplayer game to an online service which may well restrict my legal usage of said product and in addition makes it basically impossible to re-sell the product, yes.

Don't be a fool. You have to be able to see that this is just the first step in making us pay a monthly fee to keep the servers up and running. It is just the way these guys work nowadays. It is about nothing more then $$$.

But besides that, I simply do not WANT to be on the internet while I play a game. Period. This is a leash. They can keep the game. Really. All of us can be happy doing other things like improving SH3 even more or, with luck, another subsim will pop up one day.

You can go ahead and call me "Ubisoft" because I'm about this close || to doing what you suggested...

My uncle won't be able to make that choice since he's stuck with a terrible modem connection out in the country... Ubi made it for him.
