Hey #RockstarGames, how about you go FUCK yourself?
This value-removing shit is crap and was retroactively added to the #Steam version of #GTA4.
This should be made illegal and I'll instantly circumvent that bs out of spite!
The "#Enshittification of #Everything" is driving me nuts.
WHY CAN'T I PLAY A #SINGLEPLAYER #GAME #offline?
WHY DID THEY RETRACTIVELY ADDED THIS SHIT??
WHY IS THIS NOT ILLEGAL???
And worst of all:
WHY DID I EVER PAY FOR A GAME WHEN I'VE TO CRACK IT ANYWAY???
MIGHT JUST SPARE MYSELF THE MONEY AND JUST TORRENT SHIT INSTEAD!

And no, I'm not going to make "YeT AnThEr AcCoUnT!", fuck that.
Also why can't I play it offline anymore?

If I want to ruin my Singleplayer Experience, this should be my right as paying consumer ffs!
maxmoon 🌱@kkarhan I think the reason why people started to buy video games was, that publisher forced them to be online to check if they have a legit key to it.
And after they figured out that they make more money with it, they forced the people to be online all the time.
And that's why I'll refuse to buy shit with #AlwaysOnlineDRM...
@kkarhan I mean going back to pirating would be even a good development. Maybe those big publishers/developers will learn how to do things right, again?
