I give them money, they give me a game. I download it, and I'm done.

Then we're out of each others hair. As long as I have a computer and OS that will run the game, it will run, forever, unchanged, no strings attached. If they update a game, I can download a new copy and install that... *IF* I want to.



I detest advertising. I want something for free without advertising, and if that is not possible, I'll pay for it, so I don't have to look at advertisements.



All of my data is backed up on two separate external hard disks.

I have no data in the cloud, and I never will, except for some trivial stuff such as savegames in DropBox so I can play a game on two computers at once.
Fine, why are you so upset with those who choose otherwise?
