    Games that require persistent internet are baffling to me… I mean the hitman games cannot store your mission achievements offline…

    But games are games… if my stove and fridge and showers (fucking showers with wifi?) Need internet connectivity then that is bullshit. They are being too fucking optimistic about everything.

      Knowing a game is spying on me ruins the fun. My Steam Deck is blocked from the internet for that reason, but a fair number of games on Steam won’t work without connectivity. I seem to remember hearing about some girl who shares a huge collection of games that don’t require connectivity, though.

      Games like that are also baffling to me, thankfully I’ve not purchased one but I would return it as soon as I discovered the limitation if that were to happen
