best trailer i have ever seen

It is wild to think that thirteen years have passed since The Crew’s E3 2013 announcement trailer captivated players by promising a seamless, nationwide open-world racing experience.

The iconic cinematic hyped up a generation of gamers, but that dream of the ultimate endless road trip came to a bittersweet end when Ubisoft permanently shut down the servers and revoked player licenses.

This controversial move ultimately transformed the game’s legacy from a multiplayer pioneer into a rallying cry for the global “Stop Killing Games” preservation movement.

Do you think the gaming industry will ever adopt better consumer-protection standards for always-online titles after the massive backlash from this shutdown?

What are your thoughts? 🤔💭
