Utterly ridiculous for a singleplayer game. These aren’t even listed on the Steam store page. For some reason I thought id was better than this.

It’s blocked from firewall so I don’t think it’ll successfully call back home (unless they did some Steam networking trickery I guess). I just hate this bs on principle.

Why would you need a code of conduct on a game about murdering demons in the most graphically brutal ways anyways? Something like "by accepting these rules, you agree to be friendly to demons, pet them in the back and have a picnic together."?

    Have you seen how people behave in multiplayer games?

    Having a code of conduct and making the player agree to it is so neccesary.

    OP says it's a single-player game, but it looks like that's not the case. If it is multiplayer, a code of conduct is 100% necessary. The rest seems pretty standard for something online: privacy policy, EULA and TOS.

    I wish EULAs would go away, or at least be heavily restricted in what they can force you to agree with, but they're standard.

    TOS is useful to define what you can expect out of their online service.

    I also wish there were privacy laws, so the Privacy Policy didn't force you to agree to absurd terms, but here we are.

    It was released as both a single player that had multiple player options. the multiplayer stuff is defunct now so it is single player now.
