This is awesome. Educational games like these can be purposed into school curriculums. Ubi is clever with this initiative.

I'm gonna watch it later with my kids, the research in there is excellent
Game servers, not yet.
Game servers not yet. We are waiting for AWS to mature first probably. The downloads are all served by Akamai and Akamai is at all 3 teracos in SA so downloads should always max out.

Just updated the client and yeah you're right, downloads are maxing out my 100mpbs line. Also received a $10 coupon when signing in and got star wars jedi the fallen order for $7.54, not to shabby.
I do wish they had local pricing but I guess it's still cheap in any case.

They do have local pricing, well regional pricing, but no ZAR pricing. All up to the publishers to participate therein. European countries seem to be discounted the most, but we have some cheaper titles here.
Above is my client and below is my VPN on Luxembourg. I have tested it all over where my VPN applies. As per the above, it is noticeable at how much cheaper Control is and that Anno is a bit more expensive here. Ironically the coupon only applies to games priced $14.99 and upwards. We are a listed territory priced in USD and this is only likely to change once taxes come into play.
Back to giveaways.

In regard to Crusader Kings 2, now being given away, again and again (with another DLC), but now with the 3rd game’s launch to promote the title.
It reminds me how disappointing Humble Bundle have become. They either bundle games already given away, soon to be given away or to be discounted at an even lower rate in the weeks to come. Though charity is noble, their service isn’t worth it anymore.
Now they have launched Humble Games as well which is more there to compete with Itch.io, the exception being that they are also now publishing games - their business model is adapting whilst trying to sustain their Monthly promise.
In today's time, you either wait on a game to be given away or subscribe to a gaming service. Unless you want to horde games like I do
which doesn't actually make much sense today anymore. More publishers will be going the subscription route in time to come with their own ecosystems.
