Bryce Wilson of Ripten: "The Ubisoft DRM is by no means a bad thing, I welcome it with open arms. Unfortunately something that seems to plague every PC gamer is constant whinging about one thing or another. If they haven’t got frame rates to cry about, they will of course cry about something else, and so the vicious circle continues."
Insider Gaming - "Ubisoft has cancelled yet another game, this time ending development on the Animal Crossing-inspired title Alterra."
HALIFAX (April 14, 2026) – Laid-off Ubisoft workers in Halifax have voted overwhelmingly in favour of a settlement with the video-game giant. The terms of the settlement, including the compensation employees will receive, is confidential.
I can't sit here and act like I know these workers financial situations. And I'm sure nobody wakes up WANTING to go to court. But for the sake of the industry, I wish some of these types of cases made it to trial.
Settlements allow companies to continue to do whatever abusive practices they do. While the trials (should the company lose) would actually force real changes for the better.
But again, I'm not in these workers shoes and I can understand them not wanting to risk it.
Two-day event includes exclusive reveals, trailers and playable games on show floor.
Wohoo. Can't wait for the game to come out, and this is just another step in making it one of the best RTS titles (Besides SC2) on the market.
I suck at RTS games, I don't care if they are hard to pirate or not lol.
The DRM sounds awful and it's a good thing that they aren't using it for this game.
i'm not an RTS gamer but happy for you
Pirates have won a battle, but the war still rages on... until they capture their own country the war will always rage on. And Britain is planning a counter offensive with the MOST stupid laws in the history of man-kind.
