myster0n ( @myster0n@feddit.nl ) 57•1 year agoOh I’m very comfortable with it. In fact I haven’t owned a Ubisoft game in many, many years, and I wasn’t about to change that.
banazir ( @banazir@lemmy.ml ) 29•1 year agoOh, fear not Ubisoft, I’m perfectly comfortable never owning any of your games again. Ever. Eat shit.
Yerbouti ( @Yerbouti@lemmy.ml ) 21•1 year agoWe already don’t own our games, because we can’t sell them. We used to be able to sell and exchange games, but with digital platforms like steam, we don’t have the right to sell them anymore, meaning we only bought the right to play the game, not owning it.
JackbyDev ( @JackbyDev@programming.dev ) English6•1 year agoNot that there are many pro NFT folks here, but even with that approach it’s still just a transferrable license that they can change to be meaningless.
golden_zealot ( @golden_zealot@lemmy.ml ) English10•1 year agoThey already fucked me on this years ago. One day I logged into Uplay and Battlefield 3 and my 2 other games were just fucking gone. Haven’t touched them with a 10 foot pole since.
thoro ( @thoro@lemmy.ml ) 10•1 year agoThis is the direction the big companies are looking to move in. This is the direction Microsoft is banking on, too. Even if you like one service more, the end result may be the same. It’s a matter of time before we see subscription exclusives.
GamePass subscribers are the pre-orderers and mtx consumers of yesteryear, normalizing the industry to practices harmful to general consumers.
doggle ( @doggle@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) 9•1 year agoI’ve been quite comfortable with not owning any new Ubisoft games for a few years now
stardust ( @stardust@lemmy.ca ) English7•1 year agoPiracy is a very noble endeavor to keep alive. Thank you Ubisoft for keeping us on our toes instead of being complacent with trusting digital platforms. Piracy is the true preservation and ownership.
Flaky ( @Flaky@iusearchlinux.fyi ) English4•1 year agoThey say this but have some of their games on GOG lol
The_Helmet_Stays_On ( @The_Helmet_Stays_On@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) English3•1 year agoHehehe no
hazle ( @hazle@gehirneimer.de ) 3•1 year agoAgree, I own a lot of games in Steam but most come from bundles or were not bought a full price. I do buy full price games on GOG because I can have a backup offline. hack score match 2023
windowsphoneguy ( @windowsphoneguy@feddit.de ) English3•1 year agoYeah, apparently I don’t own The Crew 1 anymore.
Fox ( @FoxFairline@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 2•1 year agoHas any of the rapists or apologists in ubisoft had any repercussions yet?
Then i am not interested in their games anyway.
dangblingus ( @dangblingus@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) 1•1 year agoI bought a copy of Riders Republic on PS4. Before that, I hadn’t played a Ubisoft game since AC1. I’m quite comfortable continuing that track record.
Sivick ( @Sivick314@universeodon.com ) 1•1 year ago@ylai fuck ubisoft. They haven’t made a decent game since black flag.
