Comment on The Sims re-release shows what’s wrong with big publishers and single-player games
lambalicious@lemmy.sdf.org 1 week agoNever said they conflict. Said they’re not a “basic feature”. Sigleplayer has lived without cloud saves since around 1960.
Heck, most modern consoles have a USB port, I’d consider “offline save” *more" “basic” than “cloud save”. After all we all know by now the corporate internet can’t be trusted.

Electricity isn’t a “basic necessity”. Humanity survived for thousands of years without it.
Cloud saves are a basic feature of any modern game. It’s extremely easy to add on Steam without even having to implement it in the game. It’s just configuration, so not having access to the original source code isn’t an issue.
