Pretty sure their recent stock drop has more to do with them releasing a bad game based on a dying IP than on what an exec said months ago.

I wouldn't know it's a bad game since I won't buy it because of what an exec said months ago.

Given how often we see games selling extremely well even after the companies behind them do awful stuff you're in a very small minority.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 months ago

I may be. I don't care though. Every shit move they make will make more people like me and eventually the message will be heard. When their stock tanks like this, there will be changes.

Cool? Who else do you kick for doing the right thing?

The announcement of the game left an extremely bad impression too, because the game was $60 or $70 but didn't include all the content, there were three other tiers or "editions" you could buy, the last option being the $8 subscription service that had a shiny blue border around it and included all the content.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

Wow, I had no idea they pulled that bullshit too. Fuck that.

Isn’t Ubisoft infamously known for this subscription model on all of their products?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I thought Ubisoft was known for their shitty launchers.

The greed goes deep. It's funny that micro transactions hardly ever were micro. If it's was a few cents for a pure cosmetic item I might even do that from time to time, but take the discord cosmetics 50ct I might buy sth blinky, but they want 5-10€ for that shit
