There is , of course, a very serious problem with serverside games. Months or years after I buy the game, the company may well be out of business or no longer supporting that game. What am I supposed to do after a game that I paid for in full is now unusable to me?
People will no longer own the game, they will be renting it. And there won't even be an "rent to own" option, if everything MUST be done by the server then you'll be left to the whims of the company.
"Oh, turns out that this game is no longer profitable to keep running, sorry about your time and money but it's gone now. Too bad!"
Count me out. I'll pirate long before I agree to pay to use someone else's game and then have it taken away from me.
