Ubisoft has gone one step further to try and stop people getting into The Crew.
What a great way to sell their new Star Wars live service game.
Wait is the star wars game a live service? I thought it was a single player game.
Live service and single player is not incompatible... Unfortunately...
Look at Hitman (2016 and forward), all require an online connection to play, and release new stuff monthly.
Many of Ubisofts games also require an online connection despite being fully single player, and you can even buy currency for the in-game single player shop with real money... What used to be a cheat code is now a microtransaction.
This is one of the reasons I haven’t bought Diablo 4. The other reason is that they took overwatch away from me.
So people bought the game and they’re still taking it away? Glad I pirate games nowadays. Screw then for fucking over their customers.
If buying isn’t owning, piracy isn’t stealing.
This is what happens when you buy games from big name studios. Stop it.
Say no to buying online games. Exceptions are f2p with it being free anyways. But, sucks to "buy" a game charging full retail and have it become not only unplayable but removed.
Most ironic thing about this is apparently game can still be downloaded for people who bought it through steam. So Ubisoft consumers are getting shafted hard.

I'm sure I said this for other companies already but I am going to buy their games even less now and that was zero titles in the past decade or two
AC black flag was the last Ubisoft game I bought. After that I just lost interest in the company. Everything was yearly release garbage and cash grabs. I'm sorry but I don't feel bad for people that support them or Activision. Bethesda is also on the line. Buy indie games and support small companies.
