Uplay/Analysis

Warning: I waited out the horror stories of Uplay (Which took a huge chunk of my gaming life), for Ubisoft to "Fix their (Bleep)!", and I don't know how the rest of Uplay's features work (I don't even know the rest of Steam and GOG's features myself), I just use it to play games not do socializing outside of multiplayer. Lastly, still doing my own researching and experimenting, so I'll update this Analysis.

Here's an updated review about Ubisoft's Steam clone, the ever dreaded Uplay, which is still a bit of a as a buggy mess to this day. The game company finally got off of their butts and fixed some parts of their Steam clone, like their games can link with Steam with little to no hiccups, a much needed customer support, and attempting to make take Uplay to better heights, for example: a friendly gamer ai butler robot, customizable player profiles, a store to buy video games and merchandise, skins, a offline mode, adding Google Authenticatior for maximum security and trying to update and maintain it, and giving other features to improve the client. So that Uplay can compete with Steam and other such rivals, like GOG. Despite that there's some positive improvements, there's still some annoyances that make Uplay still fall short, like no family share. Worst is that if one doesn't know some weird tricks (i.e. Logging into Ubisoft Club to call tech support, like in the event of getting one's account hack) and not knowing where to find the Customer support guys, waiting for them, or even losing one's Uplay account, like being ban without warning (which happens with a few of their recent games). The PC version of Uplay is a Grade C+, since it's passable, but since this is Uplay and Ubisoft we're talking about they're not out of the woods, too many issues and some of which are unresolve, like example is that their infamous potato servers are still there and if the gamer is not using apps, like Google Authenicator/Windows Authenicator or Last Pass, there's going to be a whole lot of problems of getting one's account hack and stolen. Gamers are still better off buying the console version of those Ubisoft games they want, despite the graphical downgrade and other things, so at least, Uplay isn't in their faces, unlike with the PC version, which feels a bit like an unfinish building.
