      I wonder if it works in an Android VM. The shittier thing they’ve done is requiring a non-prepaid number for Overwatch 2, locking out people who can’t afford anything else… And some regions as well.

      I don’t think that’s true, I don’t have the app and I was able to play SC2 not that long ago. I think you can disable 2FA in account settings.

        What does StarCraft 2 has to do with World of Warcraft? In wow they give you 4 bag slots for free when you hook up their authenticator. But there are probably more things locked behind your phone number.

          Sorry, I didn’t notice you mention specifically WoW, thought you were referring to battle.net account. That sucks.
