Any games that require online for single player should be heavily boycotted no matter how good they might be.

Out of curiosity, what is your stance on games like Call of Duty where they're only always-online in one platform? Since 2019, CoD campaigns on PC require an internet connection, but there's no such requirement on console.

I ran into this with Jedi Fallen Order recently. It was patched to require an EA launcher and an active internet connection sometime recently. I got it on sale for $4 and still feel ripped off. There's a way to circumvent it, but they sure convinced me not to buy the sequel, which likely also has this same online only requirement only on PC as well.
