Just off the top of my head- people travelling, people on holiday, armed forces personnel serving abroad, people with flaky isps, people with no internet at all (a pretty significant number), people who have maxed out their bandwidth limit. None of these would potentially be able to play a game they've paid for. |
If you think people don't have access to the internet while travelling, you're living in the dark ages. I would hope that most people on vacation would be doing something other than playing the same games they could be playing at home, barring a gaming convention where internet connectivity would be about the last problem anyone would be having. Armed forces serving abroad get their internet service provided free of charge assuming you're not in some remote F.O.B. with limited communications where you would probably have more pressing concerns than playing video games. Service members duty stationed abroad at any permanent installation can subscribe to an ISP like anyone else stationed CONUS.
I guess people without any sort of internet connection are SOL. They can't play WoW either.
