Ubisoft Sellout - Bankruptcy Speedrun Any% Thread

3(Desmond part is a walking sim you can watch on youtube with horrible ending that spiritually and fundamentally killed the series)
I abandoned AC3 shortly after the prologue after I realised literally all I was doing in most of the story missions was holding a direction and the parkour button. I realise the games have always been fairly simplistic in how they control but AC3 felt totally mindless.
 
AC3 was such a disappointment. An open world sandbox game set in colonial times where you fight the br*tish is pretty much my dream game, altho it did serve as a base for what would become Black Flag so I guess I can forgive it.

Assassin's Creed is king of having fantastic ideas and turning them into boring, sterile slop and AC4/Enzio trilogy might be the only exceptions to this rule.

QRD: Ubisoft held a public Q&A in Paris where they had to answer several awkward questions. All their answers were exactly what you'd expect (i.e. nothing is their fault and everything is fine).

Charlie Guillemot got the cushy CEO job based on merit. Him being Yves's son is just a coincidence (x)

Star Wars Outlaws failed because of brand fatigue and not because it was shit and completely broken on release

The co-CEO of the new Ubi subsidiary is also Yves Guillemot's cousin. Again this is JUST A COINCIDENCE.

Ubisoft formed a committee charged with coming up with a plan to steer the company into safer waters

Would the class like to guess who was on this committee?

I got bored of taking screenshots at this point but the gist of the rest of the video seems to be Ubisoft's long-term strategy is the Balkanization of the company into smaller 'Creative Houses' that will all be overseen either by a direct descendant of the Guillemot bloodline or someone deep enough in their pocket that they'll do as they're told.

To me it sounds like a plan to run out the clock before the whole thing collapses in on itself and I don't think it will work.
 
I doubt it would be a controversy if Ubisoft was a private company (it started as a family business).
I wouldn't care either way if they were just honest and said 'yeah we made his son CEO because we trust family more than some random or a Tencent plant'.
about right yeah, the worst part is that the guillemots are so fucking afraid of admitting they are out of touch now, some tencent plant will just do shit focused for the souless bugs tops but he won't burn the company's money by giving in to retarded politik credit shit for that sweet CEO bonus, burning the credibility of your company in the process.

Assassin's Creed was never good, and the fact that it replaced Prince of Persia as Ubisoft's flagship Triple A franchise made me hate it even more. Fuck these games and the troons that love them.

I think black flag had very fun naval combat. AC games always had simple entrataining gameplay for casuals and dogshit story writing.
God forbid we give our games an ending, it's always gotta be a cliffhanger to rope you into buying the next game. Makes me MATI as fuck.

Nobody cares what you think, Joey, especially least of all me. Go make your own youtube channel already if you think anyone wants to hear your shitty, uneducated zoomer frogfag gaming opinions.

The frogs are cooked, I don't see a way out of this for them without Tencent just sweeping in and taking everything that matters. Hell, they already pretty much do already own all the assets that matter in all but a formality.

It's a plan to run out the clock but "smaller studios in a larger environment" is something that other studios have tried and failed at.

It's doesn't address or fix any core problems the studio has but it makes it look like the executive team understand the problem and is fixing it.

especially if the problem isn't the studio itself, but management and oversight.
in ubisoft's case it doesn't make much difference because they already got a fuckload of "smaller sutdios", but they only work as support for the latest asscreed or other ubislop. unless those studios are allowed to do their own smaller projects without much interference (unless it's someone like fucking india who can't even remaster prince of persia properly), the outcome will be exactly the same.

I personally trust that the Tencent plant would deliver a better product.

The really sad part is that, I think, everyone would view a chink takeover as a net positive, because at least it won't be woke French faggots trying to shove niggers in your face 24/7.

The Guillemot are pretty much set on crashing and burning the company with no survivors. Someone should tell them that in order to scam the paypigs, you first need to give them something they actually want. It's no coincidence every chink/gook/nip gacha is just one giant catalogue of coombait and associated fetishes.

Ubisoft will instead offer you black women and dykes.

In all those screens I didn't see any taking of accountability, nor naming the nigger in the room as a problem. They're like george lucas coping for JarJar, "Our fantasy negro is a greater character than we've ever had before".

Sure thing froggies, but when the people of the nation you are bastardizing the history of say that your nigger was nothing but a slave that Nobunaga tried to wash the black off of - all you're doing is outing the fact that Lockley's pet groid was nothing but a post-modern propaganda device, truth be damned.

Me too, at the very least you're guaranteed no token black people. My only concern would be them ramping up the monetization since Chinamen love pay-to-win, but they might be smart enough to see how that would affect their bottom line in other markets.

It was a very impressive creative writing exercise. I don't know if it was just left out but I'm surprised they didn't flex their "record" engagement numbers for Shadows again. Maybe they were worried one of the proles would ask them about sales figures.
