Games I have that require Uplay are AssCreedII, AssCreedBroHood, AssCreedRev, FarCry3 and Rayman Legends. Uplay has given me trouble when attempting to play every single one of them at some point or another.
That's unacceptable when considering that the existence of Uplay is of no benefit to me, the user. My life as a consumer would be measurably improved if Uplay went away. That's just sad.

Oh noes not UPlay! I can nary believe that a company would require use of their own program to run their game. I cannot take this abuse of power by ubisoft's part and I will not purchase this game because I will never allow DRM on my system ever!

Being serious now this doesn't stop me from getting Watch Dogs. I've never had a problem with UPlay outside of very slow update downloads. It's just another hoop to jump through to play the games I want to play. But hey if you don't want to get it because you hate jumping through hoops then more power to you. I on the other hand am a trained show dog and can jump through a few hoops for a game I want to play. Hell I might even pre-order it now, that'll show the man what I think of his DRM services!
Hurrah for DRM indifference.

Uplay does suck though, devours bandwidth and just sits like a fat cancerousa lump wallowing in it, yet delivering pathetically slow downloads. Physical copy it is!
