How to ruin another old classic
Ubisoft should win the Nobel prize for chemistry: theyve managed to turn old classics into crap with their online only, cash for in-game currency, and DRM shenanigans. Games like Anno and Settlers are as enjoyable as they were 20 years ago. And like many others Ive paid more than once to own a copy, be it because I lost or misplaced the cd or whatever. I actually paid $60 bucks for Settlers 2 gold edition back in the day! Full price for two or three of the Anno games too. And would gladly pay up a fair flat price for the iPad version as well, heck, even a ported version! But not being able to take it offline on my wifi only iPad for commutes or travel and nickel & dimeing the cost of a game as if theyre beggars, is just ridiculous. Just because there are idiots stuck paying their pimp and drug dealer Clash of Clowns, it doesnt mean every game should be that way. Just my not so humble opinion...its a free market anyway.... For now its Uninstalled. Put a one time only fair price, allow it to be offline, and Ill buy it and give it 5 stars.
