Yup. Last game I bought from them was Phoenix rising or something on the switch. Actually pretty fun. Until I learned I had to work around the forced login and online bullshit by throwing it in airplane mode at a specific time then suspending and resuming or some goofy ass shit. It’s a single player game. No I will not create and connect a useless account.
Note: it doesn’t currently work on Steam Deck and Linux in general because of the anti cheat. UbiSoft announced they will add an offline mode, so maybe they will partially disable it later.
Ubisoft also announced both The Crew 2 and The Crew Motorfest will have an offline mode (twitter post, screenshot). Looks like the Stop Killing Games campaign is working.

Ubisoft won’t even be getting a dollar from me
Technically, they would be getting $0.70. 30% is going to Valve.
The point is that they’re not getting anything from me. I’d would much rather spend that extra dollar on a really good indie game.
On the topic of which, i’ve finished Tunic today, and it’s been absolutely excellent. Strongly recommended

Surprised to see it 98% off. I thought Steam capped discounts to 90% a few years ago?
They got me! I couldn’t resist for that price.
Fool me once.
