Well, since they don’t sell games, I guess they shouldn’t expect to see any of my money anytime soon. The blade cuts both ways, Ubishit, you can’t have your cake and eat it too.
Wouldn’t the easiest way out for this just be to throw a repo up and say “host your own servers, go away.”
It feels like that would be an approach that would be simple and cheap to deliver (they don’t have to handhold any of it) but makes them look magnamanous-- “you’ll be able to show your kids this game or get a nostalgia kick even 20 years for now, like how your dad pulled out the Atari 2600”.

Every time I see a thumbnail for this game it gets me excited for a new Driver game because that’s what The Crew is
Fuck Ubisoft for many reasons, not least of which making The Crew out of Driver: SF’s follow-up
Don’t buy Ubisoft

If buying isn’t ownership, then piracy isn’t theft.

Target your anger about this to something productive.
We should really make laws that protect consumers and makes it so game services that are shut down become opensource.
Never give Ubi money. Or EA. Or Blizzard.
Or any game company. This has been the norm for decades, probably since the first piece of software was sold.
I unfortunately had to buy “A Way Out” and “It Takes Two” to play it with my spouse. I’m sorry.
But I installed the “Fck EA App” with great pleasure (https://github.com/p0358/Fuck_off_EA_App).

that’s what the other side wants them to do, yes.
servers are probably to tightly integrated into ubi’s infra to publish but they don’t want to say that.
I figure it would be the “good enough compliance gesture” like when router makers dunp a barely-building code sample to comply with the GPL.
Ubisoft about to play a game of Luigi’s Mansion
Ubisoft, more like Poopysoft am I right
If your poop isn’t soft, you need to drink more water.
