Online games are actually labeled exactly the way that you want them to be on the box. They all tell you that they require online connectivity to services that may go away. How can you predict a shutdown date 10 years ahead of time? That’s ridiculous. No business can be held to that standard. They have no way to predict whether it becomes the most popular game of all time or flops like crazy. Hell, in 10 years dozens of game studios have gone out of business entirely. It’s not like they intended to. I’m sure Ubisoft would have loved it if The Crew became the most popular racing game of all time and was the biggest e-sports tournament game on the planet. If you want a forever experience you don’t buy a multiplayer game at all. Heck, you don’t buy anything. If you expect every product you own to last forever you’ll never actually find a product that satisfies your needs. When you buy a car does the manufacturer tell you the exact date when it won’t be financially worth fixing anymore? When you buy a pair of jeans does the company tell you how many years it’ll last before they fade or rip? Hell, my last water heater didn’t last 10 years and that cost a lot more than a game license, and I need that to survive.
