Upcoming SimCity Game Requires Constant Internet Connection

As you probably know, Maxis is currently working on a new SimCity game (slated
for release in 2013). The devs did reveal that players will be able to purchase
the title digitally through services other than Origin. Recently though, Stone
Librander, the lead designer of SimCity, confirmed that the game requires you
to be online constantly, both in single-player and mutliplayer.
"The always-on connection becomes necessary with the game's emphasis on multiplayer and regional impact, and the use of a global economy that all players can influence," said Librander.
Well, this is fast becoming the standard, so just deal with it people.
Thanks, Joystiq.

or, as I interpreted it: "Their grasp is strong and is only getting stronger. Let's just sit back and take that fist in the ass."
Their arguments for it is bullshit. It's all about copyright infringement and I support all who refuse to buy this game. I know I won't. So EA is now going to become as bad as Ubisoft.... shit.
I've always been connected to the internet since about 1999 when I got DSL.
While I'm not a fan of games that require constant connection for DRM purposes, if it has a legit use in-game, I don't really care if it requires a connection. Never really did, tbh. Seems like such a small thing to get in a twist over.
im ready for the gallows, come and get me.
