Diablo III and the obligation of permanent Internet connection

Mantenimiento DiabloNo suelo comprar juegos de PC porque tengo la consola bien surtida, razĂłn por la que no estaba al dĂ­a de las Ășltimas artimañas de las compañías para combatir la piraterĂ­a, que rozan lo absurdo y que a quien perjudican es claramente al jugador, al usuario, al cliente
 llamadlo como querĂĄis.

The thing is that Diablo III requires a permanent Internet connection to play, and if at a certain time you don’t have it, look for another hobby, you won’t be able to play. The funny thing is that it doesn’t matter if your intention is to play online or offline because neither one nor the other is possible because when you enter the game you must enter your Battle.net credentials (Blizzard’s online platform).

The curious thing, too, is that while you are playing offline it is not usually very difficult to experience lag moments. Yes, **playing offline Taking a quick look at the consequences that this may entail, we have to have paid for a game with an expiration date, since although the lifespan of Blizzard games on their servers is high, it will not be eternal. On the other hand, we will not be able to play in places where there is no Internet connection, or if there is, we will depend on our Internet operator to play (and we all know that the uptime of the lines and the service of the operators is 100%
).

But the best of all is that there may be cases like the one right now, that on a Sunday afternoon the servers are under maintenance and we cannot play offline. It’s good that they look for ways to combat piracy, but a botch is a botch, and this is it.**
