I've been enjoying SH5 for almost a week since I bought it. Even made a micro-mod for it, hehe. Well, untill today, now all that the game is able to say to me is: "The internet connection experiences problems and the current game session was saved.". Of course my internet connection experiences no problems. I wrote to Ubisoft, I even got an answer, quite fast:

Hello,

First of all I would like inform you that the technical support doesn't tolerate abusive language. If you would like any further technical support I suggest you send your request using more appropriate language.

Kind regards,

I'm not proud of how I addressed them. Lost my nerves, that's true. The very idea of being dependent on their servers... is just so unbelievably dumb I just can't believe someone devised it. I know that now, when I already have SH5, it's easy to say, but: I won't buy any DRM game again. It's just not worth the frustration. I said that I wouldn't buy SH4 and I didn't buy it, so this time I'll keep my word to myself as well.
