I guess I could open UPlay. I'll just take a shower afterwards.

Free's free.
Is uPlay that bad? Isn't it just like Steam?
Uplay is fine. And anything new from Ubisoft you buy on Steam, you're forced to open a Uplay overlay with it anyway. So unless you plan to never play an Assassins Creed, Far Cry, Tom Clancy's [XYZ], etc game on the PC again, you're going to be installing Uplay at some point.

Yeah, I don't see a issue with doing that.

I am one of those people that would rather have ubi games on steam, but i can't expect such a huge company to give valve 30% all the time without growing their platform. Also ubisoft has been supporting the hell out of their games this gen unlike ea and the like. Totally respect what they have done with r6 and even wildlands now.

It's not as bad as EA's origin program but it's still obnoxious spyware. It's used to check for hacks and stuff running in the background but like the others gathers way more data than it really needs.

It's fine. Really, it isn't any worse than Steam in any meaningful way. I doubleclick my Uplay games, Uplay runs in the background and the games play fine. People just get a hard-on about whining over Uplay and Origin because they had rocky starts that were fixed years ago (but people cling to old "lol origins/uplay" jokes) and because people have an unreasonable devotion to Steam.
Sometimes the download/activation servers get crappy when a major new game comes out but that has nothing to do with the free games offered here.
