It's not because "it could be worse" that it shouldn't be better. There's no good reason to force players to sign into a dedicated account to play a singleplayer game. It's not because other publishers are worse that this isn't a gaming sin. Pointing the finger to less green pastures only gives the current one a chance to match the landscape.

Yup. Sadly it's always the same old song and dance. Death by a thousand cuts because basic consumer rights don't actually exist.
