Many fans have taken to social media to express their disappointment and frustration with Ubisoft's decision to lock content behind a paywall, especially for a game that is predominantly single-player. Some feel that this move goes against the spirit of gaming and is simply a cash grab tactic.
It's understandable that game developers and publishers need to make money to sustain their business, but there are definitely more consumer-friendly ways to do so. Locking content behind a paywall on day one feels like a slap in the face to loyal fans who are eager to experience everything the game has to offer without having to shell out for additional content.
It remains to be seen how Ubisoft will respond to the backlash surrounding Star Wars Outlaws' Season Pass controversy. Hopefully, they will listen to the feedback from fans and reconsider their approach to post-launch content. In the meantime, many fans are left feeling conflicted about their excitement for the game and hesitant to support these kinds of practices in the gaming industry.
