Is there a company that's trying to destroy itself as much as Ubisoft? The CEO and board that's running this company are genuinely some of the dumbest motherfuckers in the world. These idiots are still dedicating significant resources to make NFT games, they're still trying to insist that microtransactions are fun, they refuse to do anything to make their games more enjoyable to players, and they're trying everything in their power to squeeze out their talent. At this point, Ubisoft deserves to collapse.
They released one game last year that I'd expect to make money (Assassin's Creed 14).
Not sure how they're actually in business right now. Surely they need more than that to stay afloat. None of their microtransaction games are whale milking machines like EA's FIFA/Madden or Activision's COD series.
I'll kind of miss them when they're gone. They've always been the least evil of the big publishers.
What the fuck there's 14 Assassin's Creed games? Surely they're gonna run out of historical periods soon. It's only a matter of time before the announce Assassin's Creed: Unga Bunga where you just sneak around the forest as a cave man
Ubisoft is one of the least evil? I guess to a point, but I'd argue they haven't made a truly great game in about a decade.
No real loss in my opinion.
They got a cash injection from their parent company
I've been waiting for Ubisoft's collapse for years now. Unfortunately, the consumer has proved me wrong time and time again.
And yet there are still a lot of players who buy their games lol.
