This is just horrifying.

Ubisoft CONFIRMS they will delete your account & purchased games if you go inactive for too long!!!

Ubisoft… WTF?! Another example of why I’m becoming more & more concerned with the death of physical games.

    I wonder if you contain any games validated through Steam that are Ubisoft, whether they are forced to keep the ones associated to that account active because Steam obviously isn’t going to break their own store because Ubisoft is screwing with their own.

      I fucking love that Valve is privately owned and hope it stays that way forever. It seems like they’re the only game store not subject to enshittification and I’m sure that not being a public company is a huge part of why. They’ve kept their amazing search feature all this time, just put out a significant UI update that helps UX a lot on high res monitors, and still let you play without updating if you go into offline mode (though it is a bit of a hassle).
