    @The_FrostySinZ @UbisoftSupport @Steam As they say, piracy is a service issue, in this new age of lack of real ownership, bad launchers, bad products, DRM ruining performance and etc., it is no wonder piracy is on the rise again. I don't do it myself, but I get it, they need to earn our money and trust again.

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam If YOUR launcher is a problem - just get rid of it

    olafkswg - Buying Skins 95% (@olafkswg) reported

    Is this a planned change with no announcement or a bug? Broken trade history suggests the other, @Steam support can't answer this question.

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam Rainbow Six Siege is asking for an activation code even though it's free-to-play. The game shows as owned on both Steam and Ubisoft Connect. Steam ID: 76561199701512544. This is a license sync issue on your end, please escalate to your technical team

    @valvesoftware @Steam Valve, are you shitting me right now? Yes, I've attempted a lot of the same purchase, you just refuse to process any of them. Now I'm locked out for who knows how long, on top of your server problems? Drop the ball harder, I'd love to see what that looks like.
