For the record, the menu is four clearly recognizable hyper-links (complete with 'pop-up another window' arrow-on-square icons) that will open the related web pages. The QR codes are alternatives, for people under 40... Or who are sitting on the couch, etc.

I'm not 100% sure as I did not want to be taken outside of the game so I did not click on any of the legal lines but as far as I remember, it SEEMED like those lines were actually clickable links (from mousing over them) and that the QR codes were just an alternative method (maybe for consoles/handhelds and stuff).

If true, this is the most inanely stupid shit I've heard of. I mean, very few people bother with reading the EULA anyway, but making you jump through hoops to actually read it (but you can accept it without reading) is absolutely ridiculous.

You know what pisses me off, games like "Doom" that place the EULA behind a fucking paywall. Not that I am going to read it anyways, but why the fuck would you require me to have a SECOND device, with Camara, to scan a QR code, just to read the EULA on a secondary device? Like I need a $1000 smart phone with internet subscription just to read the fucking EULA. Don't tell me I can use the tablet that I don't own. There is absoutly ZERO reason that I need to read the EULA on a secondary device. This is 100% bullshit! Doom The Dark ages isn't even the first game I have come across to do it, but this shit needs to be illegal.

That is all.

What? Seriously? This is a thing? You can't read the the EULA on the device you bought the game on?

I cannot state that with 100% certainty because I only clicked on the "I agree" button, but when prompted with the four or five EULAS, there was a menu on the left for the type of EULA or whatever, that seemed to change the QR code on the right side of the screen, to scan to read on a secondary device. I did not click on the QR code, so it is posable that doing so brings up a web page or something.

If there was a way to read it on my PC when I started it up the first time, it wasn't outwardly apparent to me either. I can't say for 100% certain there wasn't an option, but I can say the presentation obviously wants you to do it through a mobile device.
