Whenever you purchase a game on Steam, you’ll now be met with a warning, stating that you're buying a license and not the game itself.

“EA, play the license”.

We all know here that you don’t own anything on Steam or any other client with DRM. Duh…

B this shit should be illegal, I buy a product, game, license whatever you call it, it is mine. This farce of consumer protection… "do you understand the words coming out of my mouth!?..License!!'. Yeah we do, let us own our purchased games.
