      Communists want to abolish private property.

      Capitalists want to abolish personal property.

    They are right, but only because I haven’t bought a Ubisoft game in decades.

    Part of me wants the games industry to completely poison any incentives to buy their shitty games. You pay premium prices for non-premium, rushed products that you don’t even actually own and can legally have taken from you at any point of the publisher’s choosing, which are themselves advertising venues for obnoxious micro-transactions.

    Gamers™ deserve this. Most of the convos I see around ubisoft is around yasuke being the problem and very few talk about this lawsuit which is way more of an issue. When it happens, and it will, they will still make billions of videos on youtube about a woman having speaking lines or sweet baby inc
