This is just horrifying.
Ubisoft CONFIRMS they will delete your account & purchased games if you go inactive for too long!!!
Ubisoft… WTF?! Another example of why I’m becoming more & more concerned with the death of physical games.

Hey there. We just wanted to chime in that you can avoid the account closure by logging into your account within the 30 days (since receiving the email pictured) and selecting the Cancel Account Closure link contained in the email. We certainly do not want you to lose access to your games or account so if you have any difficulties logging in then please create a support case with us. >> ubisoft.com/help

What happened to owning something you’ve paid for forever?
These companies need to realize if they keep fucking over their paying customer, it’ll be more convenient for people to just pirate their product. At least FitGirl won’t knock on my door and demand me to delete his repack off my hard disk just because I haven’t visited his site in a while

They’re making the case for pirating games even better.
What fucking morons
I saw a great quote,
“It’s not pirating if buying it isn’t owning it”.
It’s definitely still pirating. I think the quote uses the term “stealing”.
Yes but then again I’d be pirating Ubisoft games. Ain’t got time for that bloated crap.
And then they wonder why they can’t compete with Steam and end up crawling back to Gabe for every game.
Another reason to not buy digital games.
No, it is not. It’s a reason to not buy Ubisoft games, physical or digital. Physical games usually still have a code that’s linked to an account and you have to download the game from an server online. Physical games now are just as digital as digital games, but they come with added plastic waste.
The reason to buy physical is for the collection of physical games. Don’t delude yourself into thinking it’s actually on the disk though. That hasn’t been the case for a while now.
It’s like they want people to pirate their games.
But I don’t want to pirate same old reskins of bloated games
“We certainly do not want you to lose access to your games or account”
So why do this? Corporate greed.
There are two publishers who have not received a penny from my household since around 2013: EA and Ubisoft. Every time I see an article about these two being baddies it just reaffirms my conclusion from over a decade ago. Never buy from these two publishers and you will live a happier existence.
