Removing online-only DRM, improving the Steam -> uPlay integration, implementing the ability to download uPlay games whenever you want...
When it comes to their platform - OK. Although I don't care about it much becouse they could stay with steam and pay a lot to Gabe
I rather had in mind games themselves.

Hey dont be so hard the little console eunuchs, they need time to aim their lil vibratin thumbstick.
Finally got my two GTX 980 and I recorded four videos at 1080p, Ultra High details (Soft Shadows and HBAO+ included) and 4x MSAA, at 60 fps of course.
Finally fuck you and your two 980 ! Now how about you release that performance patch already Ubislut ?! 486 peasants want to play this too, even if only for 5 minutes before the imminent boredom
The game is hilarious sometimes (possible spoilers)
Spoiler:
I have done this mission where you protect an aristocratic lady who has taken a pendant from her son/father/husband who was executed by the revolutionaries (bloody French commies), huge crowd shouting, chaos everywhere. Frail little lady, walking slowly, thanking me for help.
Okay, I thought, let's not draw too much attention, this way through this alley.
Suddenly, someone shouted: "She is one of them ah-rycc-doough-crats!", and before I could react, a huge, portly fellow armed with what looked like a butcher's axe kicked the lady in the belly, and when she was thrown back on some sack of filth, he struck her head two-handed with the axe, blood spraying everywhere.
Oh great, I thought, gonna have to do the mission again.
But the lady jumped to her feet, head black from the fresh blood like a ghoul (the game has strange blood fx), pulled a pistol from somewhere and shot the dear butcher's apprentice to the head point blank, killing him outright. Then she drew a sabre.
I checked here life bar, and she had like 90 percent remaining. Good, it seems the women back there were true women.
Meanwhile, five or so opponents attacked, we cut them down, and proceeded throught the alley with the same excruciatingly slow walk. It looked just like a western - a narrow street, everyone fled, bodies everywhere, and from time to time, a group of scoundrels attacked only to be quickly slaughtered.
After about a fifty meters or so, the lady said in a calm voice: "Thank you, young man, this is my house. I am safe now."
I looked back at the narrow, filthy back street, now deserted and littered with bodies, and wanted to ask: "Are you sure? Want me to come with you up the stairs and wait till you lock the door from the inside?"
amd cards are generally just shit compared to nvidia, lets not try too hard to disregard this simple fact.
and besides, how dare you speak badly of master durante
Best goy, keep giving your money away to Njewya who actively suppresses competition and bribes everyone. I can live with shittier performance in shitty sequels, leave the real games for the red team

Oh man i wish you could have recorded that, it would have made for a great funny video LOL! Great detailed description tho!
To be perfectly honest I bought the Gold Edition mostly for ACC:China, which is still exclusive to Season Pass/Gold edition owners; usually DLC for ACgames is just ok, nothing really noteworthy. But I get your point.
But hey, at least it's not the shit that's happening to Halo Master Chief Collection on XBONE, a MP-focused game that still doesn't work correctly at all. New purchases of digital copies of MCC will get a $15 rebate. and no compensation has been announced for past buyers, digital or physical
If you bought AC:U you get the DLC(Dead Kings) for free.
If you bought AC:U and AC:U Season Pass, you get the DLC(Dead Kings) for free, Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China, and a free game from Ubi.
If you bought AC:U Gold Edition you get the DLC (Dead Kings) for free, ACC:China and a free game from Ubi.
If you isodemo'd you get all the stuff for free anyway.
So it's a win-win for everyone, apart from Ubisoft's financial quarter results.
How's it a win win?
I paid $30 for something others wouldn't get, now people are partially getting it for free, and I get to pick a 'free game' from a list of games I mostly already own? If I wanted to pay $30 for one of those games, I would have bought a cheap key.
Seems Ubisoft wasn't really happy with Unity's reception either, they started sending out the surveys.
One of the questions:
Other stuff:
• Asked if I liked the main story, asked if I liked "participating" in the Revolution, and asked if I liked Arno and Elise's romance
• Asked about stealth, specifically the crouch button, cover mechanics, last known position, blending in the crowd, and hiding in the interiors
• Asked about the NPC AI and events. The different enemy types, the guards' intervention in fights and crimes, and the crowd events.
• Asked to rate various characters. They asked about Mirabeau, de Sade, Napoleon, Elise, Germain, and Arno. Arno got particular attention, because I rated him a six (like Mirabeau IIRC) and they asked me to write specifically what I disliked (I mentioned that he didn't get enough interactions and he felt bland)
• They asked if I liked the collectibles, the side quests, free roam, the length of the main story, the ending, the way the MD and Helix plots were tied together, whether I thought Co-Op was fully integrated into the main game, if Co-Op was well done and fit in with the franchise, if I liked the variety of Co-Op, why I said I didn't play it much, and my immersion related to all of the above.
• They asked about progression and customization, how I liked it, if it made a difference in regards to difficulty, if it was satisfying, and if it catered to different play styles
• They asked about Initiates and the Companion App, if I used them and why/why not, what I liked, what I expected from them in the future (I used "other" to tell them not to lock content behind it)
• Asked about Helix credits, if I knew about them, if I used them, and asked why I didn't use them. They included an option to say if you don't think you should have to spend real world money on in-game currency (which I chose)
• Asked how I heard of the game, if I pre-ordered it, my overall satisfaction, and what advertised features influenced my decision to buy it. Amusingly, one of the factors they asked about was Elise
• The interesting bit is the future stuff. They asked about having more Blackbox missions, more stealth sequences, challenge sequences that reward you with XP or in-game money, meeting more historical figures, participating in historical events, more linear/scripted gameplay, more murder mysteries, more story-based side quests ("like an RPG's"), and the possibility of co-op in the main story. They also brought up naval gameplay yet again.
• Asked about how "next-gen" the game is by being open world, from the animations, the graphics, the gameplay, and if it delivered on its promises in the marketing
• Asked if the game was better, equal to, or worse than expected. I said slightly worse, it asked why, and these were the options given:
• Asked if I'd buy next year's game ("if" there is one)
• Asked if I'm interested in the AC movie and knew it existed
