{{workUseful Notes}}
* [[Audience Reaction]]: To some gamers, Uplay has mixed reactions thanks to what [[Ubisoft]] did to fix the client.
or a very glitchy [[Nightmare Fuel|nightmare fuel]].
* [[Fan Dumb]]: To some [[Hate Dumb| rabid Steam fans]], they hate Uplay, since in their minds, Ubisoft copy [[Steam]] to make their own digital distribution client.
* [[They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character]]: A mild example and not in the actual [[Splinter Cell]] franchise, some gamers see the naming of the new AI bot Sam and not using [[Michael Ironside]] to voice it as such a miss opportunity.
** Maybe averted since the bot is still in it's beta stage.
* [[Never Live It Down]]: After when Uplay came out - It was glitching and being a security risk, gamers won't let Ubisoft live it down to this day.
** Add the bonus of the extra [[Digital Rights Management|DRM]] that is added, outside of Uplay or (both Uplay and the third party digital store). Gives gamers good reasons to not give Ubisoft a dime.
** Ubisoft, the company itself, is still seen as [[The Dreaded]], because of [[Microtransactions]] and other legit reasons.
** In the PC gaming realm, CEO's Yves Guillemot's statements on piracy and PC gamers, which gives those good reason to switch to console, boycott, or go pirate.
** Some of the PC gamers regard Uplay as still malware or worst, spying malware.
* [[They Copied It, So It Sucks]]: See the "Fan Dumb" examples, unlike those that have justified reasons to hate on both Uplay and Ubisoft.
* [[Win Back the Crowd]]: Ubisoft was able to get some gamers back when they add good customer support, using Google Authentication, and other fixes and improvements to Uplay.
