Will it have any fallback systems so that it remains playable even when servers go down?
if not, it is another candidate for stopkillinggames.com

They're inventing a technical reason to require online to make the game functional. This is insane.

Pretty sure basically all PC games in the last 20 years are candidates, it's just a matter of time. I was surprised how many big titles from the mid 2000s are no longer playable, and you know DRM hasn't gotten less dependent on remote servers since then.

It's really the only argument for buying physical console games, but even then you're rarely intended to play the version of the game that ships on the disk/cart.
