"We think there is a fundamental misconception about piracy. Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem," he said. "If a pirate offers a product anywhere in the world, 24 x 7, purchasable from the convenience of your personal computer, and the legal provider says the product is region-locked, will come to your country 3 months after the US release, and can only be purchased at a brick and mortar store, then the pirate's service is more valuable." -Gabe Newell Was this review helpful?

So I paid money for a product that was then taken away from me, without my consent, and without any form of compensation. All because they fundamentally misunderstand piracy and can't be bothered to remove the DRM. This is theft through and through. Ubisoft, and ♥♥♥♥ Valve for doing nothing about it. Capitalism will be the death of the gaming industry, mark my words. Was this review helpful? Yes No Funny Award

Why, Ubisoft

Josh Strife Hayes @JoshStrifeHayes Ubisoft have removed Assassins Creed: Liberation HD from steam. Even if you BOUGHT IT (and it was 75% off just a few days ago) you cannot play it. You cannot download it. You cannot access it even if you did download it.

"it's literally just bad PR for no reason."

Chris Voiceman @ChrisVoiceman I'm trying to understand the benefit of taking away games from people who paid you for them. It doesn't make you money, it's literally just bad PR for no reason.
