DRM cripples paying users again.
March 7th, 2010
Apparently Ubisoft has some problems, not just with deploying bad DRM, but with keeping it running. There have been many discussions about their new DRM schema (it requires a live internet connection to play). Apparently, only the pirates are allowed to play currently as Ubisoft is sorting out their downtime. The pirates are once again having a better gaming experience than those that legally bought the game. Hopefully Ubisoft learns from this, and if not, they don’t really deserve to stay in the market. Until they remove DRM from their games, I won’t be making any more purchases from them.
