Here’s some on my list:

  • Red Dead Redemption 2 - I do not want to deal with the Rockstar Games launcher.

  • Tom Clancy’s Breakpoint - The game’s add-on packs feel like Ubisoft is trying to nickel and dime gamers who would instinctively buy the GOTY equivalent of a title. I do not want to deal with a Ubisoft launcher or account.

  • Zombi - According to the Steam reviews it required a Uplay login to validate the game before you play and that version of the Ubisoft service no longer exists. This seems to have been rectified but I still don’t trust it and don’t want to go through the refund process if it hasn’t.

  • Skyrim VR - I’ve already bought too many copies of Skyrim.

A bit of a “this is why I pirate” thread but more targeted at individual games.

    Yeah that’s fair, it’s definitely not that kind of game. A match does take quite a long time (although you are under no obligation to stay for the whole thing, again like Battlefield). Hopefully you have some free time to try it out at some point in the future, if it’s something you’re still interested in!
