I haven't touched a Ubisoft game in years. I don't even want to pirate that crap, let alone pay monthly for it.

I tried to pick up Rayman Legends when it was I'd cheap over Christmas. I ran the game from Steam was greeted with the UPlay launcher asking me to make an account to access my game, and immediately closed and refunded the title.

Enshittification is real.
