Gaming What do you think of Uplay?

[Deleted User]

I want to buy Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Does Uplay do anything that users dislike? Such as starting up when you boot up the computer or some kind of annoying DRM? How can I get an email notification when the game is on sale on Uplay without a Uplay account?

Slightly off topic but how can I get a notification when Steam games are on sale when I do not have a Steam account?

If you want to keep track of sales, just use isthereanydeal.com
Uplay in itself is a DRM, just like steam is. Starting on boot is a setting, just like with steam.
It's just ubisofts own storefront, just like origin is EA's.

Uplay isn't the worst launcher out there, but it's not that great. It's definitely clunky

its pretty bad, even worse than steam. I recommend acquiring ubisoft games through "other means"
