The warning clearly states that the games won’t be accessible on Steam from September 1st, 2022. Currently, there is no information if the owners of Ubisoft Connect versions will also lose access to their games.
Do you think Ubisoft can pull a stunt like this? Gamers have never encountered a situation in which a single-player game became unplayable after delisting it from the storefront.
Yohoho, mf.
lol there’s no way this actually stands, all sorts of different countries laws are going to get involved on this one
This is why I am opposed to Game Pass, Stadia, etc. It turns games into a faucet that can be turned off at any time. Just ask Russian steam users who had nothing to do with the Ukraine invasion
huh, we have know this was possible for awhile now, I think most people thought that companies would not be dumb enough to take these actions. Games have been removed from the steam store but you have never been stopped from installing them before, to my knowledge . I see some people saying that some countries could sue, and yeah, Maybe some countries actually have reasonable law when it comes to online services. idk im not a lawyer.
Although this Article says they will not remove access if you own the game. They will still remove the dlc I guess, which still makes no senses. The situations weird, like is there a better way to unofficially endorse piracy? 🏴☠️
Damn I was gonna try out the Anno games at some point
