I mean Skull & Bones, the $70 always-online piratey piece of shit from Ubisoft, has an ad in the game for the Premium Edition - which, I shit you not, the first line of the description says "premium edition gives you access to the Full Game."

Like, fuck any form of modern gaming whatsoever after this point. I bought the Arkham games cause they're on a huge sale on steam (literally $10 for the whole trilogy, and Origins is currently $5) and have been having a fucking blast replaying those amazing games.

I made a couple of posts recently about how it doesn't really matter that there's all this money-grabbing because we're so spoiled for choice from the past few decades. My conclusion was that there's no point in worrying when I've got a big pile of great games to play already!
