Comment on SimCity Developers' Reddit AMA Swiftly Turns Into WTF With The Online-Only DRM?parent

That is broadly the reason why I don't have the Kindle, for example.

EA has in its bowels made a choice that Sim City fans will become its new cash cow. They will be now free to sell you the game and turn it off when they choose that releasing another version is more profitable. They easily could have allowed the game to function without inputs from neighboring areas or could have simulated it.

As a Sim City fan I am deeply disappointed since I have fond memories playing the game from the very first release. But these days I have chosen to only support and reward companies who do not make relationship with their customers a power play.
