There is no real justification from a user standpoint. lord-of-shadow Send a noteboard - 16/05/2012 11:10:05 PM
It is the company shackling legitimate consumers with annoyances for the sole purpose of preventing piracy.

I don't necessarily blame Blizzard for it, but it is a sad state of affairs.

So, I'm curious, is there any gameplay justification for always-online? beetnemesis - 16/05/2012 02:34:55 PM 907 Views
As far as I know it's just an anti-piracy measure. *NM* Stephen - 16/05/2012 03:17:06 PM 542 Views

The game industry practically views them as the same thing. So... yep. lord-of-shadow - 20/05/2012 11:39:40 PM 730 Views
I think that it is an anti-piracy measure, however.... Jeordam - 16/05/2012 03:51:48 PM 880 Views
That part is not a justification for single-player online though. *NM* lord-of-shadow - 16/05/2012 11:09:01 PM 502 Views
