Imagine still buying Ubisoft games...

I wouldn't even pirate them, they suck. The Ubisoft gameplay loop is dull repetitive wank.

The last one I bought was Far Cry 3. Good game, but the launcher (Uplay?) they forced onto me was so fucking bad and broke so frequently that I vowed never to buy another unless they go zero launcher.

Honestly, it's an area where I'm really quite envious of console gamers.

Then eventually their games just became rehashes of each other, so now I won't buy or pirate them anyway. All Ubisoft games feel the same to play now, which is a shame because I think some of the environment design stuff they do is actually alright.

For me the last was Far Cry 4/Far Cry Primal, after that I feel like the series went downhill and lost the magic it once had. I still loved Ghost Recon Wildlands, though.

I will forever be sad that Ubisoft brought Nadeo and now Trackmania is a Ubisoft game :(
