I don't though. And recently I've played Wolfenstein Youngblood and Rage 2, both of which have a significantly greater online aspect than Doom Eternal. This is the first Bethesda game that isn't entirely online that's demanded it. Prior to this it was just the carrot of extra features. Now it's the stick of you can't play it at all.

Does your tin foil hat fit well?

Honestly, I don't understand the outrage with the Beth account. If you played anything from them recently you already has an account.

Unfortunately it's a huge skip from me. I'm on PC, and for some reason Bethesda are requiring an account to play it through Steam. I guess they learned their lesson about doing it to consoles from the Doom re-releases, but they're still doing it to PC players. Let's not even talk about (while actually talking about) them locking off extra modes in games unless you sign in, and doing that with existing games long after release. They locked off Mission+ in Dishonored 2 unless you give them your data, as well as locking off a difficulty mode in The Evil Within 2. They're just the ones I know about. Of course, the real advantage to Bethesda having your data isn't extra game modes, it's that they store your passwords in plain text and leak them if you contact support. Fuck Bethesda in all their various holes for ruining everything and holding your personal data hostage to do it.
