This is the world we live in now... buying software/games and then also paying rent every month for the privilege of getting pretty things (perks) to use with that software/game.
Computer software and games have become more and more subscription-based as time goes on.... I expect it will all become only subscription-based soon enough. We'll no longer be able to outright buy a game or a software program, we'll have to buy it AND also pay a monthlyrent subscription for the privilege of being able to actually use the software/game (looking at you Adobe Photoshop).
This ridiculous cash grab from corporations is already starting to cause class divisions in the computing and gaming world. Can't afford to buy AND rent our software? Oh well, you lose. Go stand in the soup line where you belong.
This is just another prime example of how the world really is still operating under the feudal system... they're just not as obvious about it this time around. The wealthy (inclusive) vs the poor (exclusive). Could we see work sweatshops and debtors' prisons making a comeback? Pfft.
....."Please sir, may we have some more?" :/
