FYI: Always online, even in single player. Game will be useless once Activision turns off the authentication servers.

Thank you for posting this. I would have bought it to play on my steam deck

Same. I guess I'll wait until they change that.

Their loss I guess.

Or just use an emulator to run the originals..?

Only for the Switch port. The EGS PC release was never cracked, AFAIK.

Apparently the steam version is now, however.

This information now makes me wanna buy that game. Like so many, I don't mind paying for entertainment, I just don't want to be suddenly without access to the game. Activision is so stupid.

[–] sugar_in_your_tea 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, if I get it, I'll probably buy a license and then play the cracked version. However, I'm not likely to go through the effort, so I guess we'll see.

If I'm able to make the game work down the road, it's enough for me.
