How to buy Far Cry 5 - before the discount weekend is over?
Complicated scenario:
I tried Far Cry 5 using the Ubisoft "free weekend" install on Ubisoft Connect. Run fine (after an uninstall and reinstall) and I like it. So I want to buy the "Far Cry 5 Gold Edition + Far Cry New Dawn Deluxe Edition Bundle".
Problems:
1) I am a US resident and my credit card is from the US but I happen to currently be in a different country. When I go to the Ubisoft Connect store... it gives me prices in local money. Not good as I would likely end up losing 3-5% on the exchange rate.
2) I don't even see this bundle in the Ubisoft Connect store.
... In other words I can't buy it during the 80% sale through Ubisoft as they are out for the weekend and even if they would fix my problems it would be after the sale is over.
3) Everything looks good on Steam - prices in $USD, bundle available, so I am leaning towards buying it there (on the assumption that it will work), but... Ubisoft apps are notorious for failing to launch properly from other platforms.
4) I fear that the current "free weekend" install from Ubisoft might interfere with a Steam purchase. I'd probably lose all progress made so far if I uninstall (a minor issue), but even then the likelyhood is that it won't install/run properly from Steam at first try.
My instinct is to buy from Steam and then pester Ubisoft support to fix whatever problems occur... as any problems would clearly be bad Ubisoft packaging on non-Ubisoft platforms.
Suggestions/Advice?
