I feel no sympathy for idiots who pay for "early" access for games like this.

I'm quite thankful there's so many people willing to pay the full price to beta-test so I can later get it for 90% off with all bugs and performance issues fixed.

It's Ubisoft

Those bugs aren't being fixed unless you pay more or subscribe to some bullshit. And even then it won't be fixed

On the other hand, since it's Ubisoft, you're guaranteed a 70% sale 8 months after release for each of their games. I don't know why anyone would buy their games on release when they all get deep discounts less than a year later

Unless it's because so many people fall for their scams that they can afford those kind of sales
