really? I think I agreed to a terms of service when I started the game on pc, im sure there is language in there that keeps players in check. I'm gonna verify..

They changed the ToS on their site, and EULA's on the steam page in the past week.

Finding anything now is moot. Was it there when you purchased?

They changed the [...] EULA's on the steam page in the past week.

The early March version seems to match the current Steam page.

Nothing in either version actually mentions anything about mandating a login to their platform either. So my argument with the EULA in specific is moot.

But yes, a diff on BOTH EULA's on the steam page show at least no change in the past couple of months. But that doesn't prove anything about when this specific user purchased the game. A change could have been made, and they would have only agreed to that version. That's the point though, that's something you have to explicitly look out for.
