I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Wow Ubisoft game launcher opens in... Never? Wtf I paid money for this game and then I need to buy it again because they didn't actually give me the account and now the launcher is just dead and I can't even open it.

Fuck that. I bought one of the assassins creed games legitimately, then had it refuse to launch after a few weeks because they updated their launcher and borked it. I then pirated that same game to bypass the launcher issue and pirated every other ubisoft game since then.

If I have to pirate games to get around a deliberate flaw you worked into your program, I'm not paying for that game.

Yeah I paid $30 for rainbow 6 siege I expect to be able to play it for more than 2 weeks. Like honestly it would be so much cheaper and easier to just use the steam launcher, since the game is already sold there, but no they have to be special.
