    I want Shadows so badly to be good, I’ve been looking forward to an AC in Japan or the Far East in general for so long.

    “In the light of recent challenges, we acknowledge the need for greater efficiency while delighting players

    They love claiming they aren’t efficient don’t they? Shifts the blame to the workers and makes it sound like great ideas when they do layoffs. They never fucking listen to the customers.

    They keep trying games that will appease everyone, so instead they’re boring and have no great story. They have gorgeous worlds that they fill with endless fetch quests and flat plotlines. Their entire business is telling gamers what they want instead of giving gamers what they want. They deserve to fail with how arrogant they are in this space.

    And I haven’t even gotten to the fact that I don’t want to buy any games from them because they’re probably just going to delist them anyway!

      Idk where, but some commenter once said “Ubisoft saw the success of FarCry3 and, since then, every game they released has been made into a FarCry3 clone”

      Weird, isn’t it? Their efficiency fetish i mean, art should never be efficient.

    It’s a bit sad, as Ubisoft made some of my favorite games growing up. I remember playing AC Black Flag and Far Cry 3 10+ years ago, and wanting to move to a tropical island after

      No, that can’t be right, Black Flag released just a few years ago … I remember it like it’s yesterday …

    oh boy, if the shares are low enough Vivendi will eventually be able to do a hostile takeover (and that isn’t a good thing either).

    Well, Ubisoft dropped the ball hard. (or balls)
