Re: This just in...
And why would they do that? If anything, because people cry "foul" loud enough. I've seen a few games that got changed because the community raged enough. Though that rarely helped the game. And a bigger chunk of the community was raging.
Either way, I know I will be laughing the day I read that D3 has been cracked and they spent all their effort excluding single players for *nothing*.
Later on, once they stop worrying about getting their lunch eaten by pirates and start thinking about milking the title, it might make sense to hit them up for a patch that allows offline play (assuming their architecture can be adapted to that.) And you never know- they might even change their mind about this before the release, again assuming they have built the ability to change their mind about it into the software (way too late, otherwise.) But, though I would save my breath here, I wouldn't hold it.
