      Guess I'll never own AC shadows or any game of theirs. If I must, I'll treat their games as rentals. And I never pay over 20 for a rental.

        It's been like this forever. You have a "license to play the game" same as the movies you buy are a license to play the content in a private setting

          If a movie rescinds the license to play then you get your money back. Like when Amazon pulled to license for people who purchased 1984. https://www.npr.org/2009/07/24/106989048/amazons-1984-deletion-from-kindle-examined

            I'm sure they'll be just fine if we "get" their games for free, they need to get used to not owning my money. Regardless, buying every new Ubisoft game is kinda pointless. I try one every 3-4 years, not much changes in a year.

              They dont follow this policy anymore. The T&C clearly state that you dont own the digital media and are not entitled to access it.

                Prince of Persia, the lost crown was fantastic. Honestly the only ubi game I've considered paying for since the early 2010s

                  Well thats okay. Someone pirating the game never actually stole it.

                        Create a /c comm and email Ross to let him know it exists. I'm sure he'd be amenable rosswscott@gmail.com

                            It should be forbidden to even refer to it as buying (I think some places already have laws for that), and they should also be forced to put a big disclaimer every time stating the game might become unavailable at any moment if it has things like DRM or core online functions.

                              Adding the link to the website might be a non issue. Getting people to join a fediverse thing might be even harder than getting them to sign.
