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.

There are two publishers who have not received a penny from my household since around 2013: EA and Ubisoft. Every time I see an article about these two being baddies it just reaffirms my conclusion from over a decade ago. Never buy from these two publishers and you will live a happier existence.
