Man Ubisoft could be so great but they just land so meh. Watchdogs, tom Clancy wildlands, the division, farcry. They all have potential but just don’t have that last 15%

phoneymouse,

And they killed Deus Ex

TownhouseGloryHole,

Embracer killed Deus Ex.

That’s because they fear giving that 15% out for free when they could have monetized it.

gimsy,

This is exactly the problem with capitalism, which is intended to be you do a thing i need/like for me i give you money

But was infiltrated by a bunch of people whose only purpose is to give less and less of what i need for more and more money until i tell them to fuck off, meanwhile they accumulated all the money and roam to greener pastures. it is basically like cut and burn farming, where the crops are all given to very few people and all the rest are to deal with the consequences

friendlymessage,

Anno 1800 is a masterpiece though

Schmuppes,

So were Rayman Origins and Legends. But those are in the past.

friendlymessage,

Anno 1800 is pretty recent

I mean… April 2019 is almost six years ago…

Schmuppes, (edited )

That’s roughly half a Skull And Bones development cycle.

friendlymessage,

The last DLC is from 2022 and every DLC was great. They announced Anno 117 mid of last year and I see nothing that would indicate that 117 would be any less good

And nothing of value will be lost.

kinda unrelated but I’d love it if valve sold physical copies of their games to use with the successor to the steam deck

Maybe they should come as some sturdy USB stick that you just plug in the back and start playing.

Ubisoft Executives need to get comfortable not eating food anymore.

Kbobabob,

I’m sure they can wipe their tears with hundred dollar bills.

which they got before running the company into bankruptcy?

Kbobabob,

Exactly

WhatSay, do gaming w Everyone's favorite AAA company might be facing bankruptcy

I stopped buying games that require online login. It’s a real pain in the ass when I’m traveling and offline. I stopped buying anything from Ubisoft, EA and Rockstar. They made their choice, so I did too.

I hate that Halo:MCC requires my like, 28 digit Microsoft password AND 2FA to play a game from 2007. It should allow you to bypass login and just play as your steam account.

Every time I want to play it, it asks for that, and I just quit and play something that is far less of a hassle, particularly offline.

This bugs the hell out of me too. I don’t think I’ve even started it yet for this very reason.

cmfhsu,

Hey I have a real easy solution to that.

I’m perma banned because I had the gall to play modded MCC from the steam workshop on the day it released, before the moderation team knew modding was legal. I can’t even log into Halo waypoint to get help from the Halo team.

I now can’t play any Microsoft game, own an Xbox, or use game pass and I refuse to make a new account on principle.

I took their advice and got comfortable not owning Ubisoft games.

pyre,

i quit after AC4. kept up with the news and reviews, seems I never really missed anything good.

ours,

They make it so easy: anything they release I’ve already played years ago already.

FYI your link to Steam is pointing to Imgur.

Road_Warrior_10,

AH sorry! I messed up the link, It’s fixed now

kat_angstrom, do games w Players Actually Sent Me 500 Word Essays For My Narrative Game (Full Story):

Yup, I added to my wishlist after seeing your quality memes on Imgur. Sounds like development has been a fun time, hope the experience continues being rewarding!

Road_Warrior_10,

Thank you so much for the wishlist! YES, making this game is very fun, but after almost 2 years of work, am ready to be done, you know?

Why do both links point to a bad picture of Bon Jovi…

echodot,

No that’s just Steam looks like these days. See they pivoted to being a low resolution image host.

Road_Warrior_10,

Ah sorry I messed up

If only bankruptcy actually meant consequences for those responsible.

ByteOnBikes,

Pretty much. The leadership team all have a golden parachute and will be integrated back into an industry and fuck that up too.

bufalo1973,

It’s a shame that they don’t have a literal golden parachute.

SocialMediaRefugee,

I sentence the investors and executives to lives of extreme luxury

udon, do gaming w Everyone's favorite AAA company might be facing bankruptcy

Maybe they should just have fewer avocado toasts for a while?

CrowAirbrush, do gaming w Everyone's favorite AAA company might be facing bankruptcy
