Because of course it is
fucking die epic shit
Meh, another Uplay exclusive...
I'm willing to give free passes to Ubisoft games because you might as well not bother buying them anywhere else other than Uplay, since it's just going to force you to open the game from there anyway.
I still didn't give them my money for Anno 1800, just because they decided to partner with Epic on that.
Yea, you can skip Epic on this just like I could have done with Anno, but on the other hand they shouldn't have took the deal with Epic, so its a pass from me.
Ubisoft going to Epic is the least controversial imo, theyve been pushing their own launcher for years and you still have to launch through it. It also wont help Epic because I dont think too many will buy ubi games on Epic. Vested fans of the existing series will buy on uplay. It's just more convenient.
In a way i think this iwll be a crutch for Epic. It's not the kinda games they should go for if they want to make this plan work.
What's the point?
Like, we get the game from Steam, because of the obvious reasons, but we also need to use UPlay.
Sure, UPlay isn't that bad, and its their own launcher and their own game.
But why the FUCK would you bother getting it on Epic, if you need UPlay anyway? Why even got to Epic in the first place? What is the point?! You have your own launcher. People prefer Steam? Ok, go to Steam BUT also use our own launcher. Fine, sure, whatever.
Don't want to go to Steam? THEN WHY NOT USE YOUR OWN LAUNCHER ONLY?!
Starting to think that what I said in the John Wick trailer thread is right:
"Beggining to think devs will abuse this and make some shitty half assed games that nobody will know they suck because "no review system lol" just so they can get the exclusivity bribe."
Slight change to the point that they're doing this just for the bribe. Game might actually be good, but the bribe money is good aswell.
OR they're trying to reel in the fortnite crowd towards this.
Can still get it on Uplay instead of Epic, ever since I've realized that getting Ubisoft games through Steam but launching it only opens Uplay to play, I've stopped buying Ubi games on Steam but rather just buy straight from Uplay or key sellers for Uplay to reduce the amount of hoops to jump through.
Plus Uplay allows you to use your uplay tokens on discounts for games that have been ojt for a yearish. If the uplay launcher wasnt so shit, id love it due to how much cross game stuff you get.
I mean are people actually exited for this game? to be honest Breakpoint should've come as dlc for Wildlands.
Tbh uplay is actually one of the better launchers out there. I’d rate it just under steam and gog
I'm mad, but not mad enough to not play the game.
I will wait (like Division 2) until there is a sale and then I'll get it on Uplay. It's not too big a deal (although I still wish I could get it on Steam).
What the hell did they do to the price, it costs almost twice more than fresh division 2

I'll be fucking damned, Steam hasn't managed to implement regional pricing for my country in the past 15 years, yet Epic has it:
