I didn't pay $50, I paid 349 Norwegian crowns

. Normally games in this country cost 500+.
Face it, people, it was very likely either this or no Silent Hunter 5 at all. Ubisoft is a company as much as your local barbershop, and they have the right to cater to the group they want, be it hardcore sim fans or Modern Warfare kiddies with thirty second attention spans.
I don't like the arcadeish and bug-ridden nature of the game myself (seriously, "Radioguy"? "Extreme speed"?), and I'm sorry for being such a fan boy, but I'm not judging Ubi too harshly until I know for sure I've got reason to.
Oh, and I did my part against harsh anti-piracy measures yesterday, when I purchased a one-month subscription to Spotify. Dislike overly strict anti-piracy measures? Stop pirating games and they'll go away
