    I am very comfortable not owning ubisoft games, because I am not buying them. :)

    Every company that is hostile towards their own customer will soon have no customer (hopefully, lol).

      Same here, I even refused participating to a family game event because they are playing The Settlers IV. I would have happily played the GOG version, but somehow the UbiSoft version (that they played) was more functional (understand that the GOG version is purposely broken) and the two are incompatible when it comes to online multiplayer.

      Also, I suspect you meant customer, not costumer… 😉

      Unfortunately most humans are absolute idiots, so I expect you’ll be wrong. They’ll still have idiots preordering their latest cookie cutter ass game
