Simple answer...do not buy these games on Steam...

I get it some are hard up to have everything on Steam...but they want there cake and want to eat it also.Why do so many want to have it there way all the time and when they can not they throw a hissy fit like a 2 year old who can not get his way,then start threads like this.

Yes i hate DRM and to be frank i wish i could get more at GOG but the fact is i can not,so i either have to say fuck you to DRM and not play most of the games i want,or i deal with it and avoid the most annoying ones like always on for single player and so on.
The one i dislike the most is Denuvo which they claim is just a tamper proof not drm,though if you ask me it still a form of drm.It does keep you from using said content. i dislike it for it can not be cracked proper,at least with the others if i for some reason lose my internet for a long period because say i can not afford it i could still play games with a crack but not with Denuvo.

Over all i have used Ubi and Origin with little issues at least not anymore then steam up and downs and disconnects.Though i have to admit Steams imo is the most user friendly version.I doubt DRM will ever go away even know CD Projects has proven sales are still strong even when DRM free,its more about price and access.As long as publishers like EA and so forth think that DRM even nets them 10% boost in sales they will use it.

Not joining. Uplay is what it is, and it's not as bad as many people make it to be. I don't expect them to remove their own DRM only because they want to also distribute through Steam. If I was a product manager at Uplay I wouldn't want to invest my R&D resources on something like this instead of developing more games or improving existing ones. Allowing control of the font type and size in Child of Light, for example, would better serve me as a consumer.

boycott Steam ftw ! :)

No, I will buy all the games with uplay drm because of this thread.

Really dont care cause Uplay isnt so bad, I mean look at Denuvo destroying SSDs...

I don't really see the point of DRM within Steam sold game Such as how when you download the gave via Steam, it gives you a key that you have to enter in the game itself to make it work. That should be automatic. Also things like Dragon Age Origins Ultimate (or whatever it was called), some of the DLC would not function in the Steam version due to an issue with the DRM that was fixed with a patch that had not (and may still not) been released on Steam.

How about we boycott Steam for better customer service instead? :)

Ironically uplay works fine for me when I use it through steam, I've only had "problems" (actually they were just annoying) when I need to use it on its own.

Why are we boycotting Death Ray Manta? I thought it looked like an okay game.

nice group!! considering steam it's the same than that uplay thing.

no steam = no play your steam games!!!

haha but well you guys still complain about things that you already are using it.

I had issues with Uplay when it first came out, because it was a broken mess. It's works really well for me now, so I don't see it as a problem. I could see this being less than favorable with lower end PCs if running both Steam and Uplay causes your computer to run poorly, but I haven't experienced this at all.

Good try, but steam is a DRM too. Boycotting one DRM on another is just favoritism and highly hypocritical. This is why I only buy on GoG and off websites.

steam fanboys, steam fanboys everywhere!!

Doesn't make sense at all. If you don't want double DRM, don't buy "other DRM"-protected games on steam. It's as simple as that.
