KMetalMind: No, no and NO!!!
You think online play is a must, but I will take the game being DRM free any day over that. Online play will die over the years (unless it's LAN or custom servers, which rarely any game supports now). Steam or GOG could close, but I'll keep having the game. I have literally hundreds of games attached to old consoles or DRM platforms that I won't be able to play without emulating or pirating them. I prefer the game being DRM free, even if the price is the same, or even some more. DRM free > online gameplay for me each and every day.
It's not the first time we miss a game because some stupid community or online feature. Then there will be people wanting games like Assassin's Creed, Doom 2016, etc. Good luck getting them with that mind, and telling GOG you won't get them unless they have the same features as other platforms, because that won't happen.
i don't know anyone i necessarily want to play online with anyway. i'd much rather hook my laptop up to my tv and play this with my kid.
so it was an instabuy for me.
