     @nikiboo @meso i can't wait for hte articles blaming me for causing them to fail cuz i dind't wanna buy their slop even when it wasn't full on dei, they made the same fucking game every time for years like since far cry 2 every game is just "run around open map find the things and hit hte pois" aassassins creed was that too, it's like "bro i'm bored of this make a different game"

     @givenup @nikiboo @meso Mandatory accounts, always online, day 1 DLC and other microtransactions, invasive DRM. By now, DEI is just the cherry on top for them.
     
     There were several games they made that looked possibly interesting, but I didn't want to go through all the hassle of accounts, EULAs, "data collection" for who knows what, etc.

     > "One of the things we saw is that gamers are used to, a little bit like DVD, having and owning their games. That's the consumer shift that needs to happen. They got comfortable not owning their CD collection or DVD collection. That's a transformation that's been a bit slower to happen [in games]. As gamers grow comfortable in that aspect… you don't lose your progress. If you resume your game at another time, your progress file is still there. That's not been deleted. You don't lose what you've built in the game or your engagement with the game. So it's about feeling comfortable with not owning your game."

     It was their choice to keep all games chained to Uplay, even when bought on Steam. It was their choice to bind half of their games behind in game shops and even external events. It was their choice to be selling games at 130 dollars.

     At some point, they had to see the writing on the wall. They are not selling games. And when I see they made a game, I am terrified of buying it inside of their CBT chamber. I got used to not owning their games.
