What’s the difference between an update and a title update?

If I own the game already will I still be able to download it after it is delisted?

Rentlar,

Yes.

Waluigis_Talking_Buttplug,

Has Rocksmith 2014 and all its…. Contents been…”released” for “offline” use already?

Rentlar,

I think you could probably find the game on the high seas even after a delist, probably some of them could have a lot of DLC included but I haven’t checked. Custom DLC might take a little more setup but idk, there are tutorials at least.

Custom DLCs exist that “cover” some of the same songs as the official DLCs do exist, though you won’t find them on CustomsForge. The Internet Archive has a folder with over 60k custom song maps, and hasn’t needlessly bound itself with restrictions.

SomethingBurger,

Custom DLC might take a little more setup but idk, there are tutorials at least.

You only need the official Cherub Rock DLC, then installing cDLC is just a matter of putting the files in the same folder as the official ones.

Marin_Rider,

once you get CDLC setup, I’m sure you will find the rest… trivial :)

I’m still not over how they ruined Rocksmith. The first two were amazing games, they improved my skills so much and I had so much fun playing them. And I kept waiting word for a Rocksmith 3, because the team behind it is amazing so I was really hopeful. But then one day without ever hearing of it being announced I stumbled upon Rocksmith+ and that’s when I realized this is where the license had gone to die, in a shitty closed Ubisoft online subscription, a shadow of its former shell. I hope one day we get a better spiritual successor that isn’t in the hands of such a trash company.

The music industry wants their license fees and people want to play using those special controllers. So it's prohibitively expensive to make this type of game on top of the added burden of the hardware. It's a miracle the game even exists as is.

_Lory98_,

Wdym? The hardware is just a shitty audio interface that doesn’t even work properly on passive bass.

Thanks for the heads-up on this. I was entirely oblivious to the existence of custom content.

nottheengineer,

And that’s what makes this bad. A game that’s perfectly playable and even has a community is taken away by greedy Ubisoft. This should be illegal.

pipariturbiini,

Sailing the seven seas for RS2014 is morally acceptable in this case.

nottheengineer,

No, it’s morally obligatory.

Kichae,

On the one hand, yes, this is both stupid and really dickish behaviour from Ubisoft. On the other hand…

This should be illegal.

No. Full stop. no. No one should be compelled to continue selling something they don’t want to sell anymore. If it has social value, it should be reproduced and superseded by something owned by society as a whole. The seller shouldn’t, under any circumstances, have the right to disable the things you bought outright from them, but that’s about it.

We have channels we can use to access things that are no longer supported or sold by the developer (and selling something implies – and should imply – support from the developers). It’s absolutely messed up that those channels are themselves illegal, but believing that you should be able to compel someone else to do what you want, against their will, just because you want them to do it is just an authoritarian hissy fit.

nottheengineer,

They shouldn’t be required to keep selling it, but they should be required to strip it of any DRM when they do stop selling it.

That way everyone wins. They can get out of the market at minimal effort and players can still enjoy their games.
