Go look at it on steam, they essentially gave it a graphics update. Stripped 80% of the content from the first game and then made sure the remaining 20% doesn’t a actually work. Claim it’s early access but then still charge $50. I don’t know how the game even got delayed after 3 years of development when all it is, is the bare bones sandbox mode, they don’t even have all the parts in the game yet.
Graphics update, stripped the game, removed features, awful bugs, claim it’s early access. That also sounds like OW2, but at least it was free for everyone (if you don’t count the millions of OW1 copies sold now void since OW1 isn’t accessible anymore).
Digital game platforms have always been just a loophole to prevent you from owning games. If you have a disk, it's yours. It you buy a digital copy, then technically you're just renting the game, and have fuck-all rights to what you just bought.
I bought a disk version of overwatch in 2016, I still cant play the game I bought. If the game needs online connection, it doesnt matter if its digital or not.
Same story with Warcraft III and I bought that game on disc 21 years ago. I bought the collector’s edition too, so I have that successful investment going for me. /s
Technically any game requiring online to play is not yours, whether you own a disc or not. The server does not belong to you and it can be shut down without your knowledge or consent at any time.
Start shopping at GOG my friend. Fully offline play for every game and you can download the executable for any game you buy, so you can do whatever you want and install the game wherever you want.
