    I guess Ubisoft is gonna have to get comfortable with nobody paying for their stuff and their company going under.

    The one and only Ubisoft game I’ve legitimately bought was Anno 1800, and even then I bought it from Steam. But I think that will be the last.

      I think I’m perfectly comfortable with not using subscriptions.

      I’ve replayed mass effect a dozen times. Cyberpunk 2077 4 times. Witcher at least 6 now. Why would I want to start renting my games over buying them?
