Why you are going to buy SH5 anyway

[miner1436]

I don't know if the modern warfare 2 boycott is a good comparison, the PC crowd for MW2 was only a portion of the players: they also sold to other platforms besides the PC, the week one sales for modern warfare 2 on the Xbox 360 alone came to 5,500,000 copies, where as SHV only has one crowd to please: the PC gamers.

Analogies i do not understand, nor am willing to learn.

I went philosofic to get down to the basic lifestyle, and explain why i do not like your, nor any other suggestion that i will "give in eventually"

I know what i want. If they give me what i want, i will get it. Thats not giving in, or giving up resistance or anything. Thats just one Guy having made up his mind in accordance to his beliefs, and sticking to them.

Once again, I commend you for your moral fiber.

And if you do end up buying the game in spite of the DRM, I won't judge you either.

I'm not suggesting anything, I'm simply reiterating what has happened countless times before this entire 'DRM drama'.

People tend to bitch and indeed give in eventually, even if they have a choice.

Yes, you are absolutely right, of course. They were different circumstances and different issues to begin with, but I wanted a strong image from recent memory. Well, for people who follow PC gaming, that is.

Also, the MW2 people have a lot of first person shooters to choose from.

We have just this one subsim.

My guess is a WoW type account key to go with your Ubi account. So as it stands right now, there is no DRM with SH5. Just something to chew on.

Your common sense and logic have no place on this forum!

Begone, foul demon!
