Ubisoft Exec Says Gamers Need to Get 'Comfortable' Not Owning Their Games

Ahh, the ol' popular Klaus Schwab mindset.

Thank goodness that nobody actually listens to Ubisoft.

Something like GTA is another story considering they seem to remove portions of every installment when people get outraged.

They're going to do that with patches anyway.

I'd say you can just not download the patches but nowadays it seems like you end up with a broken buggy mess if you don't get the patches.

I don't know if you've given the modern AC games a try, but mechanics wise they they blow those original ones out of the water. Origins is a personal favorite.

And Far Cry 5 :chef's kiss:

Ubisoft can get comfortable kissing a lot of people's asses if this is their stance.

FC5 was my last.

If people wouldn’t be so into pre-ordering shitty games and instead just wait until it comes out

Go even further than that. We all know most games aren't completed products on release anyway. It's literally a win-win as a consumer. You get a better product for a cheaper price if you just turn off the monkey brain need to be on the cutting edge of entertainment. I completely avoided the shitshow with Cyberpunk AND paying full price for it just by having patience.

for $5 a month, im essentially trying games that ill be glad im not $75 into

Spending full price hasn't made sense in more than a decade b/c of how damn fast everything drops in price. It's even more so on a digital store b/c it only takes a few times of going on one to notice that pretty much everything goes on sale 3-4 times a year. The only company that usually refuses to drop the price for several years, if at all, is Nintendo.

Origins and black flag are my favorites. I liked odyssey too. Valhalla was just alright. Mirage was pretty terrible I thought.
