Seeing that even physical copies are not safe from the wrath of Ubisoft (just as I thought), legal action is being taken worldwide. The fact that this channel provides content regarding corporate greed in the form of analog horror really says a lot about hope. The hope that are the gamers themselves who rebel against corporate greed.

The solution is simple: Boycott Ubisoft.

They now force you to create a Ubisoft account to play their games. Looking at Rabbids Party of Legends. I never returned a game so fast in my life.

I will just stick with their older games. No accounts required.

Let's hope that remains unless Ubisoft also decides to take action against that.

There is no way of taking control of their old cartridge games they have released or their old DSiware games. But I can see what you mean there. They can force you to create accounts to play their old games if they rerelease them like on Steam or the eshop or PlayStation store, etc.

No one can force you to buy anything unless you live in a totalitarian society.

Again, the solution is simple: Boycott Ubisoft.
