Denuvo and Ubisoft account required!

[🪻🧋Sylvie💮🍃]

Why on earth the PC port had to be incorporated with Denuvo as well as Ubisoft account required?

[eqalidan]

I really wish I could ignore publishers instead of just games, ubisoft made me wish for this.

Here's another thing. The team that is working on this game are inexperienced.

There is also Denuvo, and the mandatory Ubisoft account.

What a crazy company. What do they think their customers are?

Because they don't want fans to keep their games alive?
Just look at Bethesda with elder scrolls and fallout; its the modding community that keeps the games alive. Getting rid of that is just a bad idea.
And its a singleplayer game, who gives a **** if someone wants to cheat?

Ubisoft because they have pay to win mtxes in the game, if you can cheat for free you won't pay up.

does origins have this too and odyssey or only valhalla?

First time hearing about this...

https://media.contentapi.ea.com/content/dam/eacom/en-us/eula/assassins-creed-origins-english.pdf

They've been using it since at least origins; I couldn't find Syndicate's EULA to check it. None of the AC games since then actually did anything much with your ram or even prevented you from cheating the store items (they tried, but not via ram monitoring), despite all of them having this clause.

The reason it's there is because Ubisoft correctly knows that nobody actually reads these EULAs, and this kind of outrage proves it every time because if they did they'd know this isn't anything new, and it's not even just Ubisoft that uses this clause (every anticheat in existence monitors your ram because that's literally how they work, Elden Ring also has this clause, etc). They just use the same broad, general use EULA for every game because it doesn't hurt anyone if they agree to things that aren't being used and won't be acted on anyways. Specially tailoring something that won't be read by anyone for each individual game is just a waste of effort.

I don't think that bothers anyone, at least normally, that's just another think on top of a 'yea there is no 'if this game is good' to fall back on' pile

"Monitoring RAM" has been on many AAA games btw
For comparison and a example, Elden Ring and Space Marine 2 that specifically mention EAC will monitor hardware memory. So what's the point of this crying? Because it's ubisoft?

:O you want to tell me that games with multiplayer require to monitor your RAM? Man thats terrible i wonder what kind of multiplayer will ass assin creed have..

Ah, but Regrets1015, they DO care about cheats in a single player games because those cheats let players bypass their micro-transactions. That's all there is to it. They don't want you to cheat and get gold, they want you to buy gold with real money, for example/

Oh you're right! Why settle for getting $60 from gamers when we can scalp gamers for even more money lol

No modding allowed too, we can't allow modders to give away skins and other stuff for free! Thats stealing profit!

Now, all of sudden, people are minding an EULA. People who had never read a single word in those documents. You guys are so funny lol.

Do you work for Ubisoft? What is your angle here?
Customers need to hold companies accountable. That is exactly what Ollac is doing here.
Why should it be bad to call out specifics in the EULA?
"People who had never read a single word in those documents." Wrong general assumption you make there and you know it.
Just because this is the first time you see this doesn't make it any less valid.

Btw, you can just copy paste any EULA into an AI and let it find out if there is anything anti-consumer within seconds, instead of reading and comprehending it for 30 minutes.
And that is a good thing, more power to the potential user.

That's what happens when companies hire to fulfill a quota instead of hiring based on skill, while the experienced staff leave due to toxic positivity.

Because it doesn’t know when to take a rest and insist to create a ‘new AC’ every year. If the team’s imagination weren’t running out under this condition, then they must not be human
