Ubisoft will delete your account if you haven't logged for some time (Even if you owned games in it) (gamerant.com)

Ubisoft claims they do not want their players to lose access to their accounts but it's pretty clear they do want to (so they can repurchase probably), otherwise they would not implement such feature 🤷

PS: Feels good I didnt buy any Ubisoft (and EA for that matter) in the recent years that requires their stupid launchers

I had an Ubisoft account. I had the original Guildwars. Something screwed up, and they just deleted the game from my account.

I then had someone hack my account and try to steal it. The Ubisoft help desk actually got that sorted. Probably because I was online when it happened and instantly saw the email notification that the hackers changed my email.

Anyway. I changed my password to some super long phrase with numbers and capital letters and such, then never logged in again.

When was Guild Wars ever an Ubisoft game. Don't remember NCSoft / Arenanet ever being affiliated with Ubisoft

I had thought it was...

Maybe I was forced to make the ubisoft account for a different game?

Anyway. When my account was hacked, there were no games on it, so I said fuck it and never logged in again.
