If there was an unbreakable DRM I would say pro-consumer so filthy pirates wouldn't be able to download it,
I mean, come on guys. It's 2013. Do you not have a stable internet connection yet?

It's been fixed, and SimCity is supposed to be an online game anyways.
And that's why I said "If" not "Because"

It was not always an online game, save yourself from your own ignorance while you still can.

The original SimCity games weren't meant to be online only, I was talking about the new one.
Maybe read before claiming someone is ignorant.

The only pro-consumer DRM in the market right now is steam.

That's literally it.

That's because Origin didn't put their games on Steam and we have to install yet another program to keep track of our games and for someone like me who is a hardcore gamer, this is a problem.

Neither were meant to be online, the new or the old, when we talk about it being DRM, it's quite terrible at it. EA had to completely remove cheetah speed and only allow 2 slower ones because their servers couldn't handle it. The simple solution is to remove DRM, are you simply stupid?

Steam is OK DRM, hardly harms your gaming experience, except when it does

Origin is like steam, but it is a horrible program, unstable, always wants to patch itself without chance to ignore and the servers are slow, and it also sucks.

The new one was MEANT to be online only. In the begging they may have intended for it to be an offline game, but guess what, they decided to make it multiplayer only. I'm not saying this was a smart ideal, but the game is INTENDED to be online only.
