More on the always-on debate.

[quote=Searz]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMnpgCYxi-k&t=355 The whole problem is explained nicely there my Mr.Biscuit. Always-on adds no functionality what so ever, it in fact detracts functionality. Why do big names in the industry refuse to understand this?[/quote]

[quote=Mowen]I always figured they understand it's inconvenient but come up with a stance to try to not seem like dicks. This whole thing seems to be driven by the industry's pirating scare. I must say I understand their frustration with the amount of game pirating but they are going about solving this all the wrong ways...[/quote]

[quote=Searz]In all honesty big executives in Ubi/EA/whatevs are hurting the gaming industry more than piracy does. Piracy really isn't as bad as it's made out to be. The industry is just using piracy as a scapegoat to mask customer dissatisfaction.[/quote]

[quote=Toshabi]Hehehe, "Roooter". I like how he pronounces 'router'. Also, YAY! PIKMIN 3! <33333[/quote]

[quote=Searz][quote=Toshabi] Hehehe, "Roooter". I like how he pronounces 'router'.[/quote] That's nothing compared to how he pronounces 'poor'. He says roughly "po-ur". (note: the word pour is pronounced more like poor than the actual spelling)[/quote]
