Help Me Answer Questions About PA!

I saw a discussion yesterday on how most people play against the AI, and therefore no offline game for launch was going to destroy the game, and the universe would implode and women and children would be weeping in the streets.. Perhaps it's because people come to the forums or reddit and see such negativity and hostility and are like screw this I'd rather play with a bot.

It's a marketing thing. DRM has way too much negative connotation for its inclusion to be even a remotely good idea.

And that's a good thing, because DRM was never a remotely good idea.
