Nerd³ Doesn't Play... SimCity

Actual ranting begins at 0:58

This is in discussion instead of videos because it's mostly one of my favorite YouTubers ranting about EA's DRM.

TL;DW (stolen off of the video description)
Game cuts out after "minutes" of internet loss: http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments... (lul)

Can't save and load games: http://uk.pc.gamespy.com/pc/sim-city-...

Servers EA have closed: http://www.ea.com/1/service-updates

Witcher 2 DRM version Pirated More: http://www.cinemablend.com/games/Witc...

SimCity will feature microtransactions: http://www.gameranx.com/updates/id/12...

TL;DR
EA hates us and won't make it offline.

Cake Faice:
Jesus, does every game feature micro-transactions now?

This is why I hate EA... I've been debating if I should get BF3 because of it.
But people are going to find ways in time to play without internet.

I didn't get it simply for that reason.
