Good for you. Does not change that the game will still be playable in some form either for those who already own it or those who want to play it in future. But this is Lemmy so your crusade of course gets upvoted when you've provided fuck all to the conversation.

A remaster is in no way the same as the original. I understand you're putting forward the business reason for it being delisted, and that is probably the true reason, but that doesn't make it less scummy.

While Denuvo is bad, there's light on the end, because it will get removed from the game 100% in the future (due to licensing costs).

This can't be said about Ubisoft shitlauncher on the other hand, unfortunatelly. This sucker is here to stay and ruin games for as long as Ubisoft will care. And once they decide it costs too much, bye bye games...

At least launchers can usually be patched out pretty easily by the community, as they are always hastily and poorly patched in in the first place. And often times aren't even patched in but just a seperate executable that the shortcut points to instead of the actual game executable, in those instances you just need to make the shortcut go to the game instead.
