I think I didn’t buy or play anything Ubisoft since Far Cry 4? And even that was more of an accident.

So from my perspective Ubisoft is that one flaccid one night stand who is still screeching about stuff while I moved on years ago.

Edit: I just checked. I didn’t even buy Far Cry 4. Oh whoops.

GenosseFlosse,

It’s just a map pack for Far Cry 3 anyway…

I reserve my right to complain.

Fuck Ubisoft, I don’t know why everyone on Reddit loves em

Zess,

The r/gaming comments about this topic look exactly the same as here but go off if it makes you feel better or whatever.

Sweet. Just giving me more reasons to not buy Ubisoft’s garbage.

They can’t complain when I never actually give them money but still play then

You’re right, Ubisoft. I CAN’T complain about not owning the game. I never bought it. You know…because it’s an Ubisoft game!

I actually enjoyed the first two Crew games and probably would have checked out Motorfest by now if they didn’t remove the first game from my library. But now, why should I ever buy another Ubisoft game when I don’t know how long they’ll bless me with the ability to play the games I’ve paid for? They even included expiration dates for their game keys and they’re acting like those dates were completely meaningless. So, even if they try to add an end of life date for future purchases, how would I know they’re not lying like they did with these original keys?

Narauko,

This is why I have stopped buying anything Blizzard. They removed the Warcraft 3 I payed for and replaced it with a completely unplayable something I didn’t want. Ubisoft has been on my shit list for a while for unrelated reasons too, but now they are on my never again list. And I never even played The Crew. Bad business is bad business even if it doesn’t directly impact me.

Ubisoft can’t complain that I wont buy their games if I don’t really own their games.

uis,

Boycott doesn’t work, grab pitchforks and torches(EU citizens only).

Duamerthrax,

Ubisoft’s stocks aren’t looking great at the moment.

uis,

Ubisoft’s stocks aren’t ubisoft’s assets. It is opinion on how much they worth, not how much they have.

robdor, do games w Ubisoft says you "cannot complain" it shut down The Crew because you never actually owned it, and you weren't "deceived" by the lack of an offline version

Ubisoft can’t be mad at me for not burying any of their games because they don’t make any games.

I’ve been avoiding Ubisoft games for quite some time. And blizzard. And a handful of other studios because of these bullshit shenanigans.

Lost_My_Mind,

I wish people would take your stance on GTA 6.

Instead, I’m sure it’ll be like “100 billion copys sold in first hour!”

uis,

This is why boycott doesn’t work. They copy each other. So, grab pitchforks and torches(EU citizens only).

Gaslighting. That’s a new strategy and a new low.

dissentiate,

Gas lightning is one of the many disgusting tactics corporate lawyers build their careers on.

Zess,

Go and learn what gaslighting is so you don’t look so stupid next time you say it.

njm1314, do games w Ubisoft says you "cannot complain" it shut down The Crew because you never actually owned it, and you weren't "deceived" by the lack of an offline version

Ubisoft you can’t complain if I pirate your games, because I never actually bought them and you weren’t deceived by a lack of purchase.

cyberpunk007,

This is the correct response.

Hijacking.

Are you European Union Citizen? Do you like games?

Do you want to own games again? and not just “License” them? Then please join the Stop destroying Videogames Initiative.

Initiative - citizens-initiative.europa.eu/…/000007_en

(Only sign if you are a EU citizen!)

It’s an initiative to get the European parliament to discuss the matter all together, and Iirc, it already has some members that support it. (So It’s not just any ordinary petition that will go nowhere.)

We have already collected 42% of the 1 million signatures from European citizens required. But the deadline is June 2025 and if we don’t get enough signatures by then, it won’t be looked at by the European commission. So to at least get the matter to be discussed, please sign!

(ONLY FOR European Union citizens! No one else! Please do not sign if you aren’t an EU citizen. Also No Brits! there’s another initiative for the UK.)

Short video explainer about the initiative - youtu.be/mkMe9MxxZiI

For more info visit www.stopkillinggames.com

You can also view the petitions for other countries - (Australia, Canada, UK, Brazil… and more)

Lost_My_Mind,

ONLY FOR European Union citizens! No Brits!

signs anyways…is American

SpicyColdFartChamber, (edited )

No, please don’t sign if you are American. That can harm the petition with false signatures.

This is strictly ONLY for European union citizens!

Don’t worry, you can still help by spreading the message among your EU friends or family members(You don’t have to be a gamer to care about this or vote in this!). A lot of the exposure to this initiative is lacking when it comes to non-english speaking EU citizens. You can help there.

Hey Ubisoft, you can’t complain when I pirate your stupid games, because there’s nothing to own apparently.
