I read about Ubisoft forcing always-on-internet DRM for people who buy the new Driver and PC gamers collectively menstruate all over the internet.
I read about Blizzard doing something which is, at the very least, just as restrictive and impractical--and most people are cool with it or shrug it off because it's Diablo 3, goddammit. We probably won't even want to play it offline, so what's the big deal?
PC developers are going to see how gamers shrug off Blizzard's DRM and unleash such a wave of fucking you with DRM that it'd be hilarious if the precedent wasn't so horrifying.
