Eh. That's not a big of a loss as you're making it out to be. I purposely buy my games, I want to own them. (Asterisk with licensing and all). Point being that I don't agree with Ubisoft that we need to get used to Games as a Service. I don't want to rent my games. Even mid tier games, I want to own them.
But... you still don't own it. You own an ~~Ubi~~ EA-controlled, revocable license to play the game.
I mean it’s the same for Steam.
Edit: I’m dumb. I didn’t read the parent comment.
