I think it's long past time for a complete Ubisoft boycott for all games past, present, and future.
The horrors won't end! Sony and Microsoft compete for worst decisions in gaming, meanwhile Ubisoft might have them both beat. All of this and more in our episode!

The $70 you were going to spend on FF7 Rebirth would be better spent on boosting our podcast! Trust me ;)
@dielan@shitposter.club finally beat FF7 Rebirth and has a lot to say, most of which is not good. After that, we have so many updates on gaming news, from Kotaku's death knells to the latest drama surrounding microtransactions. Grab a beer this one is long.
