    I stopped buying games that require online login. It’s a real pain in the ass when I’m traveling and offline. I stopped buying anything from Ubisoft, EA and Rockstar. They made their choice, so I did too.

      I hate that Halo:MCC requires my like, 28 digit Microsoft password AND 2FA to play a game from 2007. It should allow you to bypass login and just play as your steam account.

      Every time I want to play it, it asks for that, and I just quit and play something that is far less of a hassle, particularly offline.

        Hey I have a real easy solution to that.

        I’m perma banned because I had the gall to play modded MCC from the steam workshop on the day it released, before the moderation team knew modding was legal. I can’t even log into Halo waypoint to get help from the Halo team.

        I now can’t play any Microsoft game, own an Xbox, or use game pass and I refuse to make a new account on principle.
