Ubisoft likes to really layer on the DRM in hopes it will delay the release of a crack long enough to get their sales. It’s why their games tend to be pretty CPU heavy, as you have to run two layers of DRM on top of the game.

A while ago when I rebuilt most of my PC, I figured I’d run FC5 as a test to confirm my suspicions that my aging CPU was the reason for the poor performance I was getting. Realised upon trying to start the game that it wanted me to reinstall uplay or whatever the fuck it’s called now, decided I no longer cared, uninstalled.

All of them are used to make it as hard as possible for people to crack the game or cheat.

This laggy shit was the last game I’ve bought from them. Played a ton of siege 6. But that also gets more and more unbalanced with every new operator release
As I’ve heard how much skull and bone sucks I’m happy I’ve not preorder that game.
Far Cry 5 also has online multi-player (co-op and PvP). I’m not sure anyone ever used it (I only played PvP once), but its in there (until Ubisoft decides to kill the servers I guess).

Because people still choose to give their money to Ubisoft

Because Ubisoft is Ubisoft and Ubisoft loves their DRM, they have for as long as I can remember.
Anything to punish the paying customer while pirates get away with out all this extra bs.

pirate it to avoid DRM lol

Not to split hairs, but Denuvo is DRM, which is digital rights management software, and easy anti cheat and the other one are anti cheat software (both pretty shitty too). So really it’s 1 DRM and 2 anti cheats, but iirc far cry 5 had online multiplayer and a store and shit.

Because it’ll be a cold day in hell before Ubisoft allows anyone exclusive access to their open world checklist games without paying a premium price.

Cuz they’re afraid the game will be too easy to run and they want to make it a living nightmare to both play legit AND crack because they’re offering you the luxury of a 60$ far cry game.

If they would put so much effort into their open world and quest design, people would actually buy them.

I don’t give them my money whenever possible. I show them the same amount of disdain they show me.
romulof
So you can get the DRM free version.
Evenmoardakka
Not a justification, but FC5 does have multiplayer.
Bear_of_dispair
Because they are so sure you can’t live without their shitty games that now that you can’t pirate them, you’ll have to pay lol
>!I’m not playing their sad collectothons even if **they** paid me!<

It has online coop.
Wait until you find out about the [absolutely unnecessary launcher](https://ubisoftconnect.com/en-US/) they use.
