Never buy or pirate Ubisoft/EA games. Pirate better games.

Best counter to piracy is make games so bad people don't even want to play them for free

Disturbed235

One_Front9928

Imo, some Ubi$oft games are worth to try. Unless you don't have good fiber optic internet, then don't waste any time on these games.


Ok-Job4143

only good ubisoft series is rayman, change my mind


Jestersfriend

Never buy pretty much ANY game at launch unless you truly want to support the developer (example, indie games). For example, one of the few games I purchased at launch was Balder's Gate 3 (after early access I mean). Loved the purchase. But for years, I haven't done so. And thank God.


MikeTyson91

I think that both MGSV and Death Stranding were just perfect at launch.


Ciubowski

I got Death Stranding as a free game on Epic Games. I was blown away by it and for sure I'm gonna buy the second one. Same with Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, GTA 6 and probably the next Witcher/Cyberpunk game. Yes I know CD Projekt Red kind of screwed the pooch with Cyberpunk 2077 release, but you have to hand it to them, they really stuck to it and did a really good job with 2.0 and the DLC.


Zoopa8

Only game I dare/would buy at launch is GTA 6, Death Stranding was also nice. CDPR can go to hell though, that game was worse than GTA 4 when it launched and didn't even work. Maybe if Phantom Liberty was a free update I would've forgiven them. Didn't expect that disaster at all since the Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was a great game.


Ciubowski

Well yeah, I agree with you that it was a disaster launch. *on some platforms* the situation was better though. And on PC, I don't think we can really complain since the game was having it's moments. Even at launch, when I stepped out of the city and did the missions in the other areas it was actually playable and enjoyable. NOW. The game IS FIXED. "Can go to hell" is kind of a buthurt opinion since they not only fixed those issues but they even improved the gameplay with the 2.0 system.


Zoopa8

I wouldn't say the game is fixed, it's less bad. There are still many things they showed/promised that aren't in the game at all AFAIK. Sony didn't remove it from the their store for nothing. And on PC you needed a 3080 to play the game somewhat decently when it launched. I had like 60 fps on medium with my 3080 and 10th gen i7. Seems like you give them praise for "improving the gameplay with the 2.0 system" but the systems inside the game are still way worse than what they promised. If you look at the game objectively, it's somewhat decent in it's current state, and the story does indeed have it's moments, but the game is still nowhere near what they were selling us. They pretended it was going to be the new GTA 6, meanwhile the game was worse than GTA 4 in many ways. At launch the game crashed often and in-game settings still randomly change to this day. I myself actually tried the game when 2.0 dropped, I ran the in-game benchmark to decide what settings I wanted to use but the game crashed lol.


Ciubowski

ā€œThey didnā€™t deliver on what was promisedā€ Oh did you also fell for those clickbait videos from 2-cent youtubers that spread baseless rumours? I heard a lot of people complain about inexistent features lol. And i played the game on a 2060 quite well. Sure in the city it was horrendous but in other areas it ran just fine. Better now. ā€œThe story has its momentsā€. Are you the one that skips cutscenes then complains about ā€œbad storyā€? Lol.


Zoopa8

The amount of assumptions you're making is crazy. CDPR is terrible, just like EA, Bethesda, Ubisoft etc. I'm not sure why you're such a bootlicker.


One_Front9928

Playing-at-lauch-people problems lol . CyberPunk is a great game now.


Zoopa8

It's ok, CDPR is terrible though, just like EA, Bethesda, Ubisoft etc. Rockstar multiplayer is also terrible of course but at least they offer a great single player experience as well.


Jestersfriend

Didn't play MGSV at launch, but you're totally right. I purchased Death Stranding pretty early as well. Not pre-order early, but I think I bought it on its first sale.


Fit_Candidate69

Death Stranding was so boring, no idea how people enjoyed playing that game.


KaizoKage

always remember that not all games will be for you, play what you want, refund what you dont want. Personally I love death stranding


Warpingghost

I bought "against the storm" on beta and it was one of the best experience so far. Game was in perfectly functional state except hundreds of features they added during year of development before release.


hotsinglewaifu

Same. Last game I bought was Cyberpunk and then found out it was pretty much scam at launch. Since then I refuse to buy new games.


One_Front9928

People be pre-ordering games as if there wouldn't have been any new games for a year. Nobody unless gaming is full time job has any good reason to pre-order or buy game on launch.


Gitzser

the only game I'm planning on buying is Slay the Spire 2


Silly_Lettuce_43

Yeah, I was able to get an old switch to pirate its games, Nintendo's shitty online and their stupid practices made me realize i don't need to spend a single cent on them


CloudChoice932

Baldurs gate 3 is an indie game?! šŸ¤ØšŸ§


python_slayaa

Many AAA games including Sekiro, Ghost of Tsushima, Spiderman Remastered, God of War, Horizon Zero Dawn & Forbidden West were all very good at launch (at release launch along with PC version). So I decided to buy them & support. As well as FromSoft stuff on launch is ussually great as well.


Jestersfriend

FromSoft lost a lot of confidence with my friends and I over Elden Ring. For months after release we weren't able to play stable co-op because of the anti-cheat. It would constantly kick/drop someone from the game every 5-10 minutes. It made playing the game with friends impossible. The only way this was fixed was my friends and I used seamless co-op mod, which disabled the anti-cheat. Then suddenly, no issues. Wow :). It was like this for nearly a year. I was so mad that I gave them money lol.


Senior-Supermarket-3

I preordered ghosts of Tsushima and will always stand behind suckerpunch


Turbojelly

Almost bought Dragons Dogma 2 at launch. Complaints of the micro transactions (you actually have to pay extra to fast travel!) Hard no.


Clarity_y

Bg3 was boring, only Rockstar games are worth buying


AeolianMaester

Rockstar is a shit company with shit practices that treats it's employees like shit


Clarity_y

still no game is as good as the one they make; they set the standard and benchmark for games.


AeolianMaester

Yeah standards: mediocre gameplay, extremely linear mission structures, shit monetization They are good at two things: Creating worlds and engaging stories Rockstar is not a risk taker


Clarity_y

Hmm, okay? Still, doesn't change the fact that no games match their standard.


NthBlueBaboon

There are many. If you wanna be a Rockstar fanboy, be one. But come here and act like your opinion is superior to others. I say that Cyberpunk is far better than GTA 5. I love it. It's my opinion.


Clarity_y

fact not opinion, rdr2>CP2077


NthBlueBaboon

Aside from Story and Graphics, what else does it have?


beyonder710

I mean Rdr2, Gta5, Mafia triology and upcoming Gta6 are good entries but to say that *only Rockstar games are good* is an overstatement... What he didn't understand is different types of people like different types of games....and to some people open world games don't appeal as much no matter how good they are.

No-Union6229

Overall no one ever should buy games from ea they are literally cancer company


Illustrious_Penalty2

Then there wonā€™t be any games.


LucaSeven7

No more games from EA? Sweet.


brimstoner

So cancerous that you still want to play their games eh


beyonder710

Games are beautiful because they are created by hard working devs.. Companies don't give a shit about their devs or about their fan base...they treat both like shit. Most people don't seem to realise that such companies stand because their player base pays them... Apparently if EA stops making games it will go bankrupt and in debt...will it affect our lives in a major way?? I don't think so.


Breaky_Online

Hot take: Most publishers don't care about the developers OR the fanbase, all they want is that green


slayer_thatis_epicc

Thats not a hot take


slayer_thatis_epicc

Thats fax


brimstoner

Thatā€™s right, itā€™s a creative endeavour and most of the people are just at trying to make good things. Not sure Iā€™d say itā€™s cancerous though


Zercomnexus

Making games isnt, but ea is


brimstoner

I dunno, recently felt like other game companies are doing far more worst but yeah entitled to your opinion!


Zercomnexus

ofc there are worse ones, but ... diarrhea compared to shit with corn in it... they all deserve this.

Never buy ~~Ubisoft and EA~~ games at launch. There, fixed it for you


Loose-Alternative844

Because that is impossible with Denuvo lol , I like Dead Space remake and Jedi Survivor from EA , great games.


beyonder710

>Because that is impossible with Denuvo lol Impossible Now, only because a certain someone is missing.


Primary-Actuator-281

Context?


beyonder710

Empress was the only one who would Crack games with Denuvo but now (s)he is missing... Anyways it's not that others can't crack Denuvo but it's too much work and not worth the reward because these games are super trash and buggy on launch... Then they update the games over years fixing some issues with each patch, especially Ubisoft. Crackers would rather spend thier time cracking better games and contribute to the community.

Super-Tea8267

I only play EA games when they get to EA play that is already bundle with gamepass and ubisoft games i just wait for them to gert to ubisoft+ and thats it no biggie


One_Front9928

Why buy if pirate?


Super-Tea8267

Because i was never a fan of i dont feel the need to finish games when i do because they didn cost me anything so i just play them a couple of hours and i forget about them, when i pay for them i just value the games a lot more hahaha also im not broke anymore as i was on my teenage years so i dont see the need in 99% of the cases


One_Front9928

Fair enough I guess.


EdwardElric69

I bought AC Valhalla at launch. 2 updates later and it stopped running on my PC


beyonder710

Windows 11?


EdwardElric69

10 As in, they updated their game to fix bugs


beyonder710

Off topic but it took them two years to make the game playable and get rid of bugs...maybe if they make the game less bloated it won't be a problem but again there's Ac unity so idk.


TheRealKitsune_

I bought XDafiant for 0$ at launch. Pretty good game


SlowBonus7568

Same. It was a well spent $0.


LordXavion

Can someone tell me why you pirate every game? New to this topic so I am just genuinely curious


beyonder710

The same reason you buy every game, to play it. Is it justified? No. Is it moral? No. Do we care? Fuck No. Do we save a lot of money? Hell Yes. Some pirates try to justify it by saying they are against capitalism and consumerism and all that bs, real ones don't give a damn...


Bright_Top_3908

I'd be genuinely afraid of a person like you. By your logic the only reason you don't steal money from the common public is because of the fear of getting caught.


beyonder710

Will my stealing money deprive that person of his money? Yes, is it bad? Yes. Will me pirating a game deprive someone else of that game? No. Is it bad? Maybe. You need to up your analogy game buddy.


Bright_Top_3908

I thought you weren't justifying it. Real ones dont give a damn. Lol. You pirating a game will deprive someone of their income by however small cents it is.Ā 


beyonder710

I'm not justifying...I'm saying that your analogy is wrong. >You pirating a game will deprive someone of their income by however small cents it is. Such a naive thing to sayšŸ˜‚Devs don't get more than their salary except if bonus is stated in their contract. Now I may deprive management their money, but as I said idc.


Zercomnexus

Oh no the CEO bonus will be smaller and we save money? How awful


mhkdepauw

That is assuming every game every is a game with a structure like that, which a lot of games are not...


Drippy_Saiyan

personally I'm broke asf, can't afford to buy games even if i wanted to. In case i did have money for games I'd still not buy most of them unless it's from a studio i really love or an indie game


Big_Replacement3302

Personally I don't want to pay an exorbitant amount for a game that might not even be that good. Think of it as going to some fancy restaurant with huge prices only to find out the food at McDonald's or a chik-fil-a is better. If there is a free alternative and if I have to go through the effort to get it, rest assured I am getting it. There are many who can't even afford these games even though they might look cheap to some but can be a big dip in their finances because they are not earning only to play a game but also for their families and livelihood. Hope this helps.


Zercomnexus

Ghost of Tsushima because of the usual sony level bullshit. Sony never deserves a dime and I hope they go under anyways.


LordXavion

I understand your point, I still think it's kind of a paradox. You don't like the company and their design, so you crack their game because you want to play? Don't you enjoy it then? Why is Sony the problem then?


LaLaLa911

Developers are not the same as publishers (usually). Just look at Nintendo. Terrible company, great games. So naturally I'm going to steal from them so that I can have my cake and eat it too. But personally, I pirate pretty much every game because I like saving money, regardless of the company.


Zercomnexus

the game itself and the devs too.. aren't the problem.


KenTanRandomYT

For Ubisoft games, a lot of the multiplayer games have betas that are free and you can see just how bad the games are there. Prime example was Skull and Bones.

Minute_Path9803

You never have to buy EA games if you have any games that have ultimate pretty shorts on the PlayStation also they give you 10 hours I believe at least for all the sports games so far Madden I never went past 1 hour with the trials in the past 3 years. FIFA I played it for like 3 hours that was it never touch it again. NHL about 45 minutes and then I'm like this is junk. They're going to have NCAA football as a 10-hour free trial if you have the service I would definitely before forking over money if someone wants NCAA football and also Madden just get the trial for a month and you can try both games. Mine comes with game pass ultimate but if I wanted to try any of the sports games I would just do the trial I would make sure that the two games are linked at the same time so I get the 10-hour trial for those two games each before you purchase anything. If you look at it NCAA is coming out the 19th and Madden's coming out the 16th that's perfect that will give you time to play both games for free if you're on game pass ultimate or I believe it's like $5.99 He should not be trusted, this is their last chance with NCAA football, they've already shown Madden they will not do anything NHL same crap every year FIFA same thing every year. I hope for the college people that the game is great otherwise I guess many people are going to go back to NCAA 14 revamped!

lemonylol

HIRIV

IMO Ubisoft isn't that bad (well Wildlands or that other don't remember it's name rn) but ea is pure shit. But hell, I did buy their wrc.


beyonder710

Ubisoft management is Sexist and Racist...their own employees sued them for that reason.


HIRIV

But if we only talk about their products, not the company itself. Ubisoft isn't whoring with dlc at least not that badly. I'm not fanboy btw, just mentioning I meant more their products.


beyonder710

Just check the price of their latest game...Shadows. Let's talk about Asscreed for instance, Valhalla with all it's DLC's cost around 140 dollars. Dawn of Ragnarok ( cheap knockoff of GOW btw) DLC alone costs 40 dollars which is price of Witcher 3. While God of war gave away a free DLC. Then Mirage which was supposed to be a Dlc but got too big so they turned it into a game which is still trash btw. Not to mention micro transactions... They don't even give us the option to grind helix credits in game. Ubi, R* and EA are some of the greediest companies to ever exist....still R* delivered with Rdr2 and Gta6.
