You can start ringing the new Skate's death knell, because EA says it's online only (www.rockpapershotgun.com)

So the game is plastered in advertising, that sounds even worse. Seriously I just want to buy a good game. Factorio is a good example of that.

I dont know that for certain. Just saying theres revenue streams that a F2P game can leverage if they can get the player count high enough, Its something Id tollerate from a good enough F2P game especially if its done well, Skate culture has always had certain brands associated with it so it COULD be done organically.
