Nobody want Watch Dogs legion in steam market ?

[Спарта]

I hate to buy in another plateform, it is so simple to be connected at steam.


Steam is like amazon (or not).


I'm tired of having to use multiple platforms to play a game, it just doesn't make sense anymore. For me my purchases are made 99.9% of the time on steam

Get used to it, or just add new games manually to Steam.

It's not "us" whether to decide to put the game on steam, it's the publisher.

[Crazy Tiger]

Ubisoft left Steam last year. That's a decision they made, not players. We players don't get to decide where a publisher, who owns the game and IP, publishes their games.

And it depends on what the perspective is, it actually does make sense for a large publisher to have their own store/launcher. There they keep 100% of the revenue.

You can always vote with your wallet. If the dorks from Ubisoft don't want you to use Steam, feel free to give the game a pass. There's no shortage of good games to play. I'm still waiting for Outer Worlds to release on Steam, while I've gone years not playing Titanfall 2 while everybody & their grandma hoorayed it's campaign (which is as good as everybody's saying).

But I don't understand, why can I get Assassin's Creed Odyssey on steam ? Why stop ? That would be cool to continue to buy Ubisoft product on steam.


I don't speak only about watch dogs but I speak too about assassin's creed valhala..


I don't like the ubisoft launcher

Because Ubisoft saw chances to increase their revenue and earn money. They collaborated with the Epic Game Store, meaning they ditched Steam. And from the information I gathered, many people don't like the Epic store so those people bought the games on Uplay.
I see it as a ploy from Ubisoft to generate more sales in their own store.

In the end, Ubisoft is a business and they look at ways to maximise their earnings.

Honestly, it's irrelevant what we players think would be cool or like. Generally speaking, most gamers simply go where the games are and don't care about multiple launchers and such.

Those are titles added prior to Ubisoft decision to take their new releases back to Uplay.
When Electronic Arts took Battlefield 3 to Origin they didn't remove formerly sold items on the store. They just released the new ones on their own platform.

You'll have to balance what is worse to you. Using the Ubisoft launcher or not playing the game.

Ubisoft managers don't want you to buy Ubisoft games on Steam.

Ubisoft left Steam and from now on new games are only available on Uplay, Epic and consoles.

Older Ubisoft games remain on Steam and can be purchased because Ubisoft do not want to lose the revenue from Steam.

Finally Ubisoft made a smart move because people not wanting to use Epic bought the games on Uplay such as The Division 2 and increased the revenue on their own platform.

Its funny because they wouldnt even have half their player-base without steam.

[Zaskar]

Even with the Ubisoft's games on Steam, you still need an Uplay account to play. It's not that different then buying it directly from Uplay. You just cut the middleman.

If you do it right, you get the games elsewhere and save some money for the cases where its best to buy on steam.

because that was released in 2018, not any recently.

rumors for ubi leaving Steam were coming up in early 2019 with the division 2 being exclusive on epic and were just manifested mid 2019 by ubi.

everything that was released under ubi flag in 2019 and 2020 was due to legal obligations or additional content to existing content but they are essentially gone from Steam atm.

there is nothing Valve can or better ... will do about it. Valve does not throw around with money.

funny enought both ubisoft game the div 2 and breakpoint where garbage so nothing was lost

[grody_antagonic]

Don't buy it then. If less and less people buy while they're not on Steam, they may return some day if Epic stops paying them...
I don't buy games anywhere else but Steam anymore. I stopped caring some time ago. Sad that I won't be able to play Valhalla, but yea, it's just how it is. I don't care anymore. Not on Steam = not interested.
