Yes, it requires a $20 annual subscription. Yes, the ubisoft connect thing is a ulcer.

But there's enough to do for free that you can make an informed purchase, and honestly $20 annually isn't a big ask, the game's very actively releasing new stuff to do, and the community is thriving, I'm having a good time.

Oh, and it's not a subscription--you just buy a year, you get a year, this isn't something that's going to sneak another $20 out on the next billing cycle because you forgot to cancel, it's really a very fair model I think.
