    Requires 3rd-Party Account: Ubisoft Connect Launcher (Supports Linking to Steam Account)

    Coming to steam was a good first step, now… Participate in the free market. This second account login for a single player game bullshit needs to stop. Come to steam and use steam, reduce friction.

      They never will because then they would need to give valve a cut for the micro transaction purchases made in the ubisoft launcher. Also they lose that advertising platform

      Yeah LMK when it’s on GoG

      (The first Assassin’s Creed is btw. But only that one. Also, avoid Horizon: Zero Dawn nonsense by buying it on GoG.)

    Woo. Or I’ll play dragon age 4. Or MS flight sim 2024. Or literally any other game that isn’t a cookie cutter or 20 games before it.
