Ubisoft should get comfortable with not owning my money.
Ha I really want to see the current Ubisoft reaction to their incredibly shit take from before.
It was a good take
For game subscriptions to work people will have to be comfortable not owning games
How is that any less true now?
We’re all just getting comfortable not owning games. Ubisoft games, specifically. This is what they asked for, right?
Ubisoft should feel a sense of pride and accomplishment for 1. Stealing the title of worst game publisher and 2. Stealing the title of most evil quote from EA.
whats the new evil quote?

“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. As gamers grow comfortable in that aspect…”.
Interpreted as “Players Should Get Comfortable with Not Owning Games”
The real context was they wanted more subscriptions.
honestly i see the industry moving in that direction, not unlike the “pride and accomplishment” thing of yesteryear. i hate this so much.
Suck for the innocent employees but also fuck Ubisoft. Can’t wait for them to crash and burn
For information, a strike is going one in the video game industry in france, including ubisoft : https://mastodon.gamedev.place/@STJV/113843503849511121
Fuck around and find out moment
Feels bad for the developers, but fingers crossed that the new AC is a disaster and Ubisoft is over.
Just slam another launcher on it 🤡
We need more lootboxes
I think it’s time to implement the shovel
Oh well. Buy the ticket, take the ride
All thanks to rainbow six siege not being on linux!
It’s odd to realise other people can also be gamers and I may not even be aware of the games they play, can’t even remember the last ubisoft or EA game I bought. Maybe for EA it might be battle for middle earth. Do they make battlefield? Think I got 3 in a humble bundle and some other games.
~Oh no. What a shame.~ Moving on…
