You come off as not too bright yourself, why would you go from having quake 3 with level editing, mods, free maps skins, etc, in big budget AAA games, to not getting that, and having the game client server locked to company PC's like diablo 3 and overwatch?
As PC gamer from the 90's, we were expecting Diablo 3 to get level editing and modding, aka juts like warcraft and starcraft had editors, the editors stopped however because of world of warcraft, everquest, guild wars, and uo.
Those were RPG's that were just renamed and resold to the public with non ownership, aka anyone who paid for those games paid for the privledge of being robbed.
It's as if you went and bought a RPG from staples that had an ethernet dongle that was hooked up to a PC in the back of the store in order for the game to function.
You don't seem to get "MMO's" and "f2p games" are not genres, they are just the same PC game recoded to get rid of your ability to control the software.
It was all part of a scam to defraud the public of getting complete files for software, this was the end game for the corporate world.
So that means we've been getting fraudulently coded software for 23+ years now, and now windows 10 has all sorts of client-server bs in it which is basically malware bs to further turn PC's into a locked down platform like mobile.
All to undermine local file access control, thy are using things like active directory to deny access to files on your own machine remotely.
Shit is dystopian. The fact that most people are oblivious even on hacker news is pretty disturbing since it says "hackers" you'd think hackers would want to own and control their PC's and not be spied on by microsoft or by their own PC game software.
