I wish Ubisoft goes back to the era of calling all PC players pirates and then not realising their games on PC because it’s too much effort. This way we won’t have to suffer their presence on our beloved platform.

And not a single fuck was given that day. Even if you buy through Steam you still have to install their shitty launcher and fuckin' Denuvo, and you can't even share it with your kids. I guess I'm glad Epic and Ubisoft are both feeling fucked, because they've earned it. They can both "get more comfortable with" not selling games.
Ubisoft left steam? Didn't even know it, their games have gotten terrible reviews for so long, and their uplay platform is so shitty, I have skipped them until they fixed their game dev or cancelled uplay, haha.
If you're into Metroidvanias "Prince of Persia: Lost Crown" was actually a real surprise hit. I think it's the first Ubisoft game I've played in years.
Why is it always this one photo of Gabe? It's like a meme format that journalists use unironically any time Steam comes up.
I think because (health aside), it projects huge IDGAF energy.. which goes well with the stories.
Maybe these corporate parasites that ruin the industry could learn the lesson that it is a lot more profitable to not be a piece of shit. And treat people with respect.
That's a good point-- I'm on board with that.

Epic enshittified early. The whole system was terrible and they force it onto you. Here is valve actively making it easier to play your games while epic was like "It's PC gaming, you get the good with the bad, suck it!". You can't simply buy your competition when your competition has more money than God.
Epic is failing because Tim Sweeney refused to innovate the platform.
Fuck Tim Sweeney with a linux powered dildo.
He is the reason linux gaming is being held back.
Pornhub video title would be: "Getting all my weak spots penetrated at once by software using 'unsafe custom kernels' "
Even Microsoft doesn't seem to be actively preventing their games from running on Linux. Fuck Sweeney.

Ubisoft could put their games for free right into my PC's games folder and I still wouldn't play them. They're shit.
Once you’ve played one Ubisoft game you’ve played them all. They did that thing where they took the best gameplay loops from each of their games and implemented them in their other games. So you always feel like you’ve done it before.
Their stories dance around the idea of saying something meaningful without actually taking a stance on anything. They feel like they’ve been approved by a board of directors and not the vision of an artist.
Absolutely soulless.
Spot on, I feel exactly the same about their games.

Oh man, that picture of Gabe just keeps getting better.
Hope they also disable their shitshow of a launcher.

Don't expect too much from the inventor of always-online DRM in single player games.
