Apparently the Ubisoft servers are down so I cannot play SINGLE PLAYER Breakpoint.

I don't even want to play the game online. I just enjoy running around in single player. Why they haven't dropped an offline patch yet?

In the Paradox case, nothing is live, and they aren't pretending it's a service. They just put goods out at a rapid clip that you choose to buy or not. That's why live service games are always online. If Paradox counts, then so do board games, and that's absurd.
