“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.
I haven’t played AC shadows, but I guarantee its the exact same game with the same glitches and issues that have been around since the first game. I remember thinking how cool an open world AC Japan would be like… 15 years ago. Tsushima satisfied that craving so AC is too late now
I really liked the old assassin creed games but around the time they started scoring your assassinations I started to lose interest it messed with how I felt about my assassinations. Might as well play hitman 47 at that point.
Here’s hoping they face many, many more.
I mean they could start by actually addressing the toxic work culture and dealing with that hateful cunt Yves Guillemot:
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
I love how basically the whole gaming space was excited about “more ship/fleet focused Black Flag” and it morphed into some shitty live service trash.
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.
So was I 15 years ago. It’s too late now. Tsushima already did better than AC will ever do
