This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

The problem is that the requirement to have an account is in fine print most people would never read. Therefore you might accidentally buy a game without knowing you need it and can't just "not buy the game and move on." I'm fucking sick of having to create an account with every goddamn game company out there to play single player games on a PS5 or on Steam.

I thought it was pretty clear on Steam, there's a highlighted message about it right above the button to purchase the game.

I don't approve of it, but it's not like they're hiding it.

Launch the game, see that it requires a sign in, refund the game because it doesn't have over 2 hours of play time.

I couldn't find that option when I bought this game on PS5 last year or whenever it came out.
