Get EnhancedSteam addon and you'll be notified if another DRM applies to the game you've chosed

Better check here, EnhancedSteam only tells which DRM a game uses if it written somewhere in the description of every Store page, and is not a reliable source:

Why are you worried? It's really no big deal.

  • Run the game from steam
  • Uplay opens and you run the game from there
  • Close uplay after you close the game

It adds 2 extra clicks and maybe 10 seconds to the entire process.

It's fucking annoying. I tried playing Assassin's Creed II once, and it took about fucking half an hour to start playing. Why?

Because I needed to have an account, and have a password, and confirm the account, and then I have to enter the key on uplay. I HAVE TO TELL THEM I HAVE A GAME I ALREADY BOUGHT. And then that shit needed to update, oh god more updates, and then it needs to process the updates because my god you need to process them right? And then it needs to install the updates, and you wait, and then when everything is done, well you better just wait another 10 minutes because as you have already waited so long why not?

Fuck uplay.

@joeyBeanz
Well it may not seem like a big deal to you but you must admit its quite annoying to stack one DRM on top of another all for the sake of promoting their own brand of DRM system. Also Uplay is not well configured and tends to sometime not update games properly and its a buggy mess. At least thats the impression I got from playing Assassins Creed on my cousin's account.

Not really... when I played Far Cry 3 and closed Uplay game closed too. Also Steam overlay didn't work so fuck Uplay fuck Ubisoft.

I don't think he's saying that you can close Uplay when the game is running. Quote:

I believe almost all the Ubisoft games except for a few odd ones require Uplay. You are out of luck there mate .

I lost my interest in 'From Dust' becuase Uplay decided it was fun to enter an endless update loop. I regret that purchase
