I’ve been getting into mass effect trilogy finally, and since I don’t own a gaming pc, I like to play through GeForce Now.
Well, just now I had some things come up a couple of times a row and I quit my game a few times, and now I can’t continue because of some sort of lock mechanism against playing on multiple computers…?
Did not know this is a thing, but I have a few vacation days and wanted to get this series properly started, so it’s a little bit annoying. Who knows how long I have to wait?
Ugh…
Edit:
Talking with EA support, they informed me that the wait is 24 hours. Jesus christ that is long for something like this. There goes my vacation day opportunity…
Edit2:
Wow! The customer support really pulled through, suggested they request a password change on my account from their side.
Turns out, this seems to toggle that flag, and I could now start the game! Hooray! Akash, my man, you saved the day! Cheers 🍻
If you don’t own the software when you buy it, it’s not stealing to pirate it.
That’s not true in the least. The smart move is to use alternative software.
Lol yes, except when you can’t. How do you find an alternate game? If EA owns the rights they own it there is no alternative. For Photoshop, Microsoft office, etc, I get it.
I don’t necessarily agree with the guy you’re arguing with, but are you really claiming you not only have to play games, you have to play a particular game? That is the most neckbeardy thing I’ve ever heard. Forget touching grass, touch better priorities.
Exactly. There have been a few open source, free adaptations of games in the past but it’s rare. Rollercoaster Tycoon comes to mind as a rare outlier. Didn’t someone come out with a great free approximation or was it just for Linux?
