    I for one appreciate Ubisoft.

    If they hadn’t fucked up so hard, their talent wouldn’t have quit/got fired in order to give us expedition 33

    Sounds like someone is upset that they cannot appease their shareholders by selling uninteresting video games riddled with microtransactions and cash grabs. I think that its time their leadership revisit the Agile Manifesto.

    Haven’t gotten anything from ubusoft since they gave me a free version of splinter cell with my video card 13 years ago. Still haven’t played it.

      ^ Pretty much the goal of capitalism. “Once we achieve infinite growth we will generate unlimited wealth with no effort. The line will go straight up forever!”

      inb4 Ubisoft negotiates Trump pardons in advance and starts hiring robbery teams to steal money directly from g*mers’ wallets.

    I mean, I just take it in the tone of voice people use to congratulate communities for positive community impact.

    “Look at how clean this river is now! So many members of the community showed up to contribute, and I’m proud of you all! You did this!”

    Reminder:

    https://www.ign.com/articles/ubisoft-exec-says-gamers-need-to-get-comfortable-not-owning-their-games-for-subscriptions-to-take-off

    “One of the things we saw is that gamers are used to, a little bit like DVD, having and owning their games. That’s the consumer shift that needs to happen. They got comfortable not owning their CD collection or DVD collection. That’s a transformation that’s been a bit slower to happen [in games].”

    I’m totally OK not owning Ubisoft games… but not in the way they would prefer… Where I hand them money and still don’t own anything.
