Ubisoft is master of Europe/Canada. Only the pirate fleet stands before them.
OceansVideo game DRMs are now battlefields.Unfortunately this apples not only to games.
I’ve never wanted to download a car more than today.
Well, the Ubisoft exec needs to get used to people pirating games if they cannot be owned.
If purchase isn’t ownership, then piracy isn’t theft
Alright, I was only gently pointing it out because what he actually said is still a pretty bad take, but at this point it’s just annoying.
No, he didn’t say that.
He said that gaming subscriptions won’t take off UNTIL gamers get used to not owning their games. Wihch… yeah, it checks out.
The all-subscription future already sucks, can we at least limit our outrage to the actual problem? I swear, I have no idea why gaming industry people ever talk to anybody. Nothing good ever comes of it.
Yup. This shit is getting old. Context people. Context.
I’m honestly quite fine with not owning any Ubisoft games, so me and this exec are on the same page of being happy not owning Ubisoft games it seems like
Soulseek
Open Tracker Signups (search for em)
Well I’m already used to not owning Ubisoft games, because I think the last one I bought was AC Odyssey…
It’s odd as well, because out of the Big Three, I always considered Ubisoft to be the least scummy of them.
People still play Ubisoft games?
Anybody know the name of the game in the image?
Not sure if serious or not but in case you are… It’s a frame from the anime One Piece.
Oh sorry, I really thought it looked like a game lmao. Shame, I would’ve played it.

Please ban op with only memes and no discussion. This is becoming r/piracy.
Ban me for posting one meme? It’s my first post.
Noted. I won’t do it again.
Ignore him, that guys weird
It’s interesting to see that subscriptions are forced upon users everywhere.
I only game on mobile in games that are basically f2p. When I like something in that game or want to do a monthly pass I pay for that, once. I have deliberately no payment option what so ever linked to the mobile account as I don’t trust Google not to sneak in an unwanted payment. (Or a game fritzing out and doing a payment for me)
Yes, games are entertainment and just like TV/streaming, a subscription could be useful for die-hard gamers, but I see digital content being ‘sold’ for buyers to ‘own’ and then the bought items being removed to much. Corporate greed is spiraling out of control.

This doesn’t happen. You can just admit you don’t trust yourself not to spend more money.
Don’t give Ubisoft money for their games and they will change their tune or close up shop soon enough.
Ppl who care about this and ppl who give Ubisoft money live in an unconnected Venn diagram.
