Hey Ecco, are you still playing FF online?
I was randomly checking the forums for the humour value of the tank/healer 
horror stories and I checked the Shiva member list. Both Kahn and I are still 
on it, but I didn’t see you or Paas.

Sounds like good news, but I fear this may just have the negative side effect 
of sky-rocketing aspirin prices:

Hooray for big pharma!

Might and Magic Heroes VI reminded me of how far Ubisoft has fallen.  It seems 
like everything they touch turns to shit.

- You need to install Ubisoft's crappy UPlay client and create an account

- The game uses always-online DRM.  You can play offline, but certain features 
are missing, like pre-level bonus selection which has always been part of the 
series.

- If for some reason the game can't connect to their servers, you can't unlock 
the DLC

Here's the best part:  Suppose, like me, you played offline for five hours 
because the servers were down.  The next time you launch the game and it 
manages to connect to the server, all your saved games magically disappear and 
you have to restart from scratch!  That's presumably because the game sees 
online and offline as two different modes, which is one of the stupidest things 
I've ever come across in a videogame because Online and Offline campaigns are 
exactly the same.  I suppose they were too lazy to try to figure out which 
achievements you've already unlocked once you connected, so they just force you 
to restart (remind me again why this is even necessary considering it's a Steam 
title...)

The game itself is also disappointing but at the end of the day it's still HoMM 
so I expect to be playing it for quite a while.

The developers went bankrupt.  Here's what one of them had to say about their 
time working with Ubisoft:
