« It’s about feeling comfortable with not owning your game. »
Late last year it was reported that PlayStation gamers who had acquired Discovery video content from the PlayStation Store would lose all access to the material – despite having bought it. And this could happen to our digitally bought video games as well, as the publishers have the right to remove them. We have already seen digital store fronts being shut down, which makes it impossible to download titles we’ve paid for.
This sparked a debate about owning things digitally (instead of physically), which does mean that you have to be prepared to lose some content or in worst case scenario everything, without being able to do anything about it. Now Ubisoft have voiced their opinion on all this, and they think it’s about time gamers got used to not owning any video games.
