Wow. Some people bought the game for full price recently and now it’s given away for free (with your PS+ subscription) early next month.

Eh. That’s not a big of a loss as you’re making it out to be. I purposely buy my games, I want to own them. (Asterisk with licensing and all). Point being that I don’t agree with Ubisoft that we need to get used to Games as a Service. I don’t want to rent my games. Even mid tier games, I want to own them.
But… you still don’t own it. You own an
UbiEA-controlled, revocable license to play the game.I mean it’s the same for Steam.
Edit: I’m dumb. I didn’t read the parent comment.
Ubi? I thought Dragon Age was EA
lol fair enough, it’s Bioware, but the point still stands
Ah I thought I missed the news and Ubi purchased the rights or something. The point does still stand, yeah. Parent comment made the same point too
and if they let me buy it license free I would. However between the options of buying a license to play a game whenever I want vs renting it for 1 month, I’ll take the license.
