Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Will it have any fallback systems so that it remains playable even when servers go down?
if not, it is another candidate for stopkillinggames.com
They're inventing a technical reason to require online to make the game functional. This is insane.
Pretty sure basically all PC games in the last 20 years are candidates, it's just a matter of time. I was surprised how many big titles from the mid 2000s are no longer playable, and you know DRM hasn't gotten less dependent on remote servers since then.
It's really the only argument for buying physical console games, but even then you're rarely intended to play the version of the game that ships on the disk/cart.
