    I’m sure the last few Ubisoft games I got from Steam all installed UPlay before letting me run them anyway…

    I’m not buying it because £45 is not a budget price for what feels like an indie game experience. I can wait for a sale on that, or more likely for it to go to PSN Extra. Still got plenty on my backlog.

    You are gonna be disappointed. I stole it and still wanted a refund.

    I’m not out of space yet, but I still deleted it from my Jellyfin server out of principle.

    I think it’s the writing above all else that’s a complete embarrassment.












  • Not really, Ubisoft.

    Much like music, movies and TV, you just need to make sure your content is both available for purchase for people who don’t want a subscription and consistently available on a subscription service for those that do.

    It’s when you start fucking around and taking them off again because somebody else is offering you more for exclusivity that we get pissed off and just pirate things. You can’t expect Assassin’s Creed Black Flag to still be making you a noticeable amount of money, but a subscriber can rightfully expect it to be on your service.

    I’m of the opinion that if a game is on a subscription service, be it PSN or Game Pass, then it should stay there except in very extreme circumstances. A game can take weeks to play through, and it’s only going to take one large game going AWOL at 90% completion for me to sour on the whole idea.
