But fine if you wanna miss out on ROF and SH5 , it's your loss no one else, and frankly i would've liked BOB to have a constant Internet connection requirement as well just as a principle.

If a DRM stops you after years of waiting i feel sorry for you and how you value the products.
The World doesn't rotate around you, you do know that?

Jokes aside, I don't want to reply in aggressive manner, like your post sounds - instead I will say this: not all people have internet connection, especially the crowd that plays SH5. There are two different roads publishers can take:

1/ Intrusive, draconian DRM style, which will only make them loose sales because people do not like to be forced to do certain things. And, like any car can be stolen, so can any software protection be cracked.

2/ More open to the community and buyers, by offering quality products and add ons to those that have the original copy. This is just the tip of the iceberg, there are many ways in which they can profit much more than the obvious message they are giving to the buyers now, which is: 'we do not care'.
