That’s fine. . .for Blizzard. The honest consumer still loses.

You have some very valid points. However, upon Starcraft 2′s release, do you think there would be more people trying to play it without an internet connection, or more people trying to pirate it? I’d say the latter. It’s about opportunity cost. Blizzard can’t make everyone happy. They’re just trying to maximize profits, albeit in a very annoying way.

@Curtass

Yes. It is a Very Bad Thing. I bought a game, but I have to activate it online to play it. What happens if I lose my internet connection for some reason (e.g. lost my job and can’t afford it now, moved to an area without tolerable connection) and it can’t be restored for some time (weeks, months). Now how do I play my game that I paid $60 for? And yet, were I to pirate the game for free, I wouldn’t have to worry about online checks. Hmm. Which is the better value there?

@Curtis

I blame Valve’s Steam system for forcing me to become accustomed to online activation schemes. The fact that Blizzard is trying to force more online checks to prevent piracy is just the way the industry is headed.

Is this a bad thing?

I can’t remember the last time I went to a LAN party, but I play games over my home network with my wife from time to time and it seems kind of annoying to add the hurdle of going online to do so. It’s not a deal-breaker though.
