Man, shareholders must be the dumbest people on this planet if they're still willing to throw money at this industry after being constantly lied to for so many years

>>716089582
nobody has bought ubisoft shares in years, everyone in on the death coaster and asking for it to stop falling so they can get off.

Ubisoft can't stop making losses this year it seems.

>>716089582
>dumbest people
Generally they are. They have advisors and listen to CEOs yap about stuff instead of doing their own investigation.
see >>716089330
Big boi investor here has no idea that his "gamers" doesn't exist. It's just NPCs passing their time with slop before going to wherever they go in their lease cars to meet up with acquaintances. Those are not "gamers" by any stretch of the imagination.

>>716089812
Nailed it. They basically want us to STOP fighting back because when we do, they lose.

Release the sales numbers already if their games are that good

I'll only be happy when they are gone.

>>716089330
They are at least 5 years behind, it's amazing.

>It's being called out in the open by shareholders

It all comes tumbling down tumbling down tumbling down

>>716090925
wow, it's just shareholders calling him out nonstop, nothing like the previous conferences kek
they are fucking done this time

>>716089582
They don't know shit about the industry they put their money in. They just look at the numbers and decide that a company that meets certain metrics will go up.

Kinda like how every IT company who had fired coders and has invested millions into AI has seen a surge in valuation without showing any results.

They just watched the stock values cut in half at least and wish they had sold off as quickly.

>>716091691
it doesn't matter, he's already in the middle of transferring all worthwhile assets/ips of the company to the new shell company co-owned by Tencent so he can golden parachute onto the next disaster in the making

>>716092363
>he's already in the middle
If that's the case even he would be losing a fuckton of value though
Sure he'll still be a rich faggot who doesn't need to work but still

>>716091115
Is there even any realistic chance they can bounce back

>>716092363
Does Europe just not have antitrust laws?

>>716092589
they literally just blew asscreed japan, anon

I didn't realize that companies can also withhold and lie to their shareholders. So if they're not appeasing both the customers AND the shareholders who the fuck are they literally making the game for?

>>716092682
To defraud the Canadian taxpayer and line their own pockets of course.

>>716092592
>Europe
Isn't Ubisoft actually based in Montreal, Canada's fr*nch hellhole?

I genuinely don't mind woke shit in games. You can have stories about gay and transgender characters, you can even focus their entire plotline on them being gay/transgender. The problem is they have to be G O O D stories.

>>716092363
>Guillemot brother was appointed in charge of it

What the fuck is Tencents plan?

>>716092682
modern audiences, they will come... anytime now

>>716092682
Companies are a result of their hires. Ubisoft hired a bunch of retards who just want to spread their political opinion while being paid to do so.

>>716088667
I have "anti woke fatigue" posts fatigue

>>716092769
that was everyone's opinion in 2012
it doesn't work because these people can only use media as a vehicle for politics, quality be dammed

>>716092912
Guillemot found a way to get their money but still keep a lot of their assets since he was resisting outright selling Ubisoft. Tencent probably wants them to keep crashing so they can take the whole thing for a nickle when there's no way out.

>>716092769
No such thing.

This was literally how Netflix survived for years.

That's literally how ALL streaming works now actually.

>>716087537 (OP)
Where are the herds who said that shareholder caused/pushed wokeism in vidya? They blamed this shareholder boogeyman in cyberpunk failure and ubisoft decline before without mentioning a single fault of game developers at all.
I've been saying this again and again that shareholders are barely knew about the game thst they invested in, what they know is profit and just that. Those boomers have no capacity to interfere with game story or character design and cause wokefsggotry where the kind of nigger, uggo goblin, and other abomination being forcefed to the players in the last ten years or so; in short they are fools, but they are being fooled by another party, the same party who also blamed the consoomer for multiple project failure and putting both consoomer and shareholders next to each other; where everyone is wrong except them, the game developer

someone upload it to youtube and post the link

>>716092589
No. They have way too many people employed compared to what they release.

>>716093153
Nobody likes blaming the devs because it makes them look like reactionary trolls.

>>716093164
stop being a shitty phone poster

>>716088835
No BK. They have enough for one AAA cycle. After that, they may need to sell more to Tencent. Wildcard is PS6.

OH SHIT! It's over, I'm voting conservative forever now. Gaming is saved.

everything wrong with modern companies, from hiring to shitty ideas and identity politics comes from them

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>>716093058
yeah this, i would even welcome "diversity", if it was truly diverse and showed the best of every race like some japanese games do it, instead of it actually being the ugliest caricatures and white men not welcome

>>716093342
But that's what happened. People saw game devs as people who are 'on their side' and they act as if the shareholders are supervising them 24/7 to make sure that this overweight nigger are being a girlboss to the weak limp main character. So herd mentality audience spent their time attacking these 'shareholders' while the actual jews are laughing and being safe inside their office, probably recording day in the life as well
>>716093712
Sure, dumbass. Those devs are innocent as the audience like lets take a look at their group picture, like thosr cyberpunk team group pictures, they are such an innocent creatures forced being woke by stake- no middle management (now)

lol I do enjoy these threads pretty women don't fix shit games see mechabreak.

>>716093776
>If it was truly diverse and showed the best of every race like some japanese games do it
Western games always take the laziest route, give me Neo-Zulus vs the New British Hegemony war in 2125 or something. Make it cool, make it fun, use parts of each culture to show their actual unique qualities.

Does Ubisoft have anymore games coming up?
All I can think is Anno and that's not gonna save them.

>>716087537 (OP)
>video doesn't include the answer
what's your motive behind this thread, OP?

>>716092640
I remember playing the first game a lifetime ago and I think there was a vague reference to japan at the end and thinking how could it would be to play as an assassin ninja. Who could have ever imagined it would turn out like this?

>>716093895
It's because people tend to conflate devs as "artists" and since that word is infallible, they don't want to blame them for anything.

>>716088667
Yeah, I'm tired of all those triple a games FORCING anti-woke down my throat like...uh....

>>716088667
not me :)

>>716093912
No one is claiming that, the only people who think more butts == better game are low IQs who belong on gacha threads. Ugly characters and prudeness are just a part of the problem.

>>716093776
People don't seem to notice this, but that was basically what happening back in the day. Just look at old Disney movies.
It was a thing even on gaming, Price of Persia, GTA SA, Unreal Tournament 3, Asscreed 1, Just Cause, Street Fighter/KoF, etc. All big titles with non-white american protagonists.

>>716093153
Based. "IT'S DA INVESTOOOOOORS!!!"-fags eternally fucking BTFO. This is reminiscent of Jew Soier of Obshitian fame being called out for blaming any and every problem his games have ever had on "DA INVESTOOOORS!!!"

>>716092589
No. I have no inside information or any info whatoever but they can't just fire everyone they haired the last 10 years and hire sane people.
The rot has infected everything. It has to go.

>>716088835
not a chance, tencent is gonna use them as a proxy to output more slop.

woah there big brain calm down.

>>716093153
I take back what I said about Ford vs Dodge, I'm glad Ford lost.

>>716092589
Yes, but they need to fire the CEO and at least 50% of the staff. Remember they hold a shitton of valuable IPs.

I don't fucking care about what happens to Ubisoft, just pls sell Rayman to Nintendo, Sega or anyone else

You mean you hate everyone turning on your stupid ideology? Buzzword invented by libtards to stop the bleeding. Doesn't exist.

>>716096064

I unironically thought the reincarnation theory might be the nicest possible explanation of what happens after death, until that thought crossed my mind. Now I'm petrified of the possibility

>>716096442
Just buy Ubisoft stock right now and you too can lose hundreds of dollars doing nothing.

>>716096428

No, Japan was supposed to be their ace in the hole when things went bad, but they fucked up anyway.

>>716094949
>they hold a shitton of valuable IPs.
Like? PoP depends on remake if its shit or commercial flop then that IP is dead like it was for 14 years. Same with Splinter Cell. Driver is dead. The Crew sells solely because racing genre is on life support so racists buy any shovelware but this will end too. Tom Clancy is whatever its game by game basis. They plan to release AC title every single year up until 2029 which easily can end in market oversaturation even with normgroids. Rayman is barely alive but its getting new game at least but if that doesnt exceed expectations IP will be killed. Watch Dogs is dead. Only valuable IPs they have are AC which they could kill this very decade due to retarded oversaturation and Far Cry because as I said Clancy is attached to anything with guns so its not really a draw at all they attach that shit to new IPs basically.

>>716096442
All you need to become a shareholder is just to have money. Some people invest privately, some people invest as part of a private group, some people get banks or managers to do it.

The whole reason why most shareholders are completely clueless is because it's mostly just people who have a ton of money who tell other people "here is my money, please invest it for me".

maybe a remaster collection of one of their franchises, or just a remaster of something like watchdogs

>>716096861
most wealthy people are not smart
smart people have pride in their craft and keep working, investors are those who either stopped working after making it big or have never worked in the first place

>>716095848
That checks out, that'd basically be the kids actively targeted by the 3rd/4th/5th Gen.

>>716096861

>>716092682
They can't really lie (despite Ubisoft's CEO lying all the time), legally speaking. Shareholders own part of the company. Employees cannot simply lie to the owners of the company, that is fraud.

when will they sell rabbits and rayman

>>716096442
Kek, it's an investment thing. ANYBODY can be a shareholder if they BUY enough stock in a company. The company will literally reach out to you and keep you in. You just need capital, the rest is all connections.

>>716092769
Stories about gay people will generally only interest other gay people. And in this case, it won't be "woke". If it happens to be a story about gay people made to interest all humans (like that Australian movie about faggots and the bus), then it won't be woke either.
A product only becomes "woke" when it is made with the intention of ideological proselytizing, presenting an interpretation of reality based on the ideals of "identity politics", as if this reality were superior to traditional alternatives.
Woke products are literally trying to convert people, either openly or covertly.

>>716088667
It has been half a year trannybro, we still have a loooooong way to go

From ubishit dying cause of asscreed to EA asking for 100 million in players to blizzard using AI art slop, there is no soul left, no passionate dev to save these companies

They are all gonna be bankrupt soon while roblox takes over gaming and nintendo potentially being the lone survivor of the crash of paid video games. Brace yourselves, you are gonna see a gaming crash so huge that it will make history books as roblox will be the only thing left

No, its the devs. Not only are a lot of them in a cali or sanfran bubble with ridiculous points of view and politics, but universities are churning these retards out and their compatriots reinforce it.

>>716102319
Aren't one of their biggest investors blackrock? They can't, or they'd piss off a bigger fish, not to mention the social suicide in their circles. And majority of their developers seem to be danger hairs, there was that protest a while back at ubisoft where the devs wanted a piece of the company and were pushing commie rhetoric.

I don't think this is true, this is a weird sort of redditor 'workers unite' kind of thing where everything wrong with the world is some nebulous boss man CFO type who comes down to the office and forces everyone to write code that doesn't work, bad dialogue, etc.

The reality is this: most people are non-confrontational, and the sort of people who end up working as game devs tend to be even more non-confrontational than that. So in a team of 250, you can literally have just one person who is a troon or troon adjacent, who then gets into slack and starts advocating for troon shit in the game, and nobody will say anything because they don't want to be rude. They also don't feel at liberty to say anything because they (rightly) think that disagreeing with a troon or troon adjacent person will be taken as war crimes by HR. They don't want to say anything because a troon will screencap the conversation and slander them with impunity on social media. And in this way a single person can influence the entire team, even when the entire team knows they're shitting up the project. That's how the gender stuff gets in.

The other problems come from game dev just being a grind that doesn't pay very well, you need to know a lot of systems programming to do it well and you get paid like a web guy, so the only people who say are the people who can't leave, so over time you get a team composed of out-of-college guys and the least of the least from the last five years of churn, a constant race to the bottom. A John Carmack starting fresh wouldn't even entertain the games industry today.

this in turn is a consequence of the Civil Rights Act which polices speech in the US

Moving away from woke would easier than moving away from that same old stale design philosophy that killed them slowly
Fc3 was a blessing and curse, now they stuck making outpost and towerslop

>>716105308
HR is middle management.

>>716105496
Yeah, sort of. We had the civil rights act and (some) sanity in the workplace for years, it is possible, but you're right that the civil rights act is at the root of a lot of it, specifically the way it destroys freedom of association. In a just world, a theoretical developer could simply fire a dev who was insisting their medieval fantasy game needed troons and obese blacks with vitiligo in enchanted wheelchairs, giving cause as malicious influence or simply no cause at all. But a big part of the problem is that if one of them applies, it is a huge legal risk NOT to hire them, and once hired it is an enormous risk to fire them.

Completely wrong, Blackrock is a perfect example with their "forcing behaviors" idea. The reality is that its all corrupt, Shareholders push for cancer, they hire dogshit devs that push for cancer and everything goes down hill. They're all to blame.

Not to pile on with the others, but no it is unlikely they recover from this downward trajectory. Assassin’s Creed as a brand name has suffered extensively, and the company does not have the time or money to reform in the way it needs to in order to survive into the future. The brand will be gone within the decade

Eventually you'll realize that marketing isn't trying to sell you shit games, but that shit games sell you marketing, i.e.: pad traffic and engagement -- they are little more than onboarding schemes to consultation rackets, e-grifting parasocialites and digitial daycare-botfarms.
The industry has been captured by PR gremlins. These PR gremlins cultivate an unsustainable economy of lies: they sell problems, rent out solutions (marginally smaller problems) and deceive everyone -- shareholders, developers, customers and players. They don't care about the quality or reception of the product, they don't care about what you believe, love or hate and they don't care to convince you of anything. The more controversy, the better for them.

Their final goal however is to distract and placate you, while high finance (read: their owners, banksters) turns your passions and lifetime into vacuous commodities.

>be PR gremlins
>gaslight publisher into whipping developers into frenzy to create super-slop
>gobble up the majority of the "development" budget, recommend hiring nepotists
>proliferate more slop to e-grifting parasocialites to fan the flames; hype a product you know will fail miserably, gaslight customers and shareholders with predatory marketing
>reinvest a fraction of your hyper-bloated budget and buy copies through subsidaries and at a discount to gaslight everyone some more, after padding stats shortterm refund to ruin them longterm
>simultaneousely shill for and against the product to maximize controversy and thus traffic, engagement and demand of your service and that of your buisness partners, such as consultation rackets
>eventually come out of it being the sole profiteer, blaming everyone else

In other words: if you're a shareholder of a publisher or developer studio instead of an investor to a marketing agency, then you are a barely functional lobotomite.

>>716110274
Yeah no shit, that’s the point. You dropped in screeching like it was supposed to be a Nintendo Direct. It’s a corporate briefing where they try to convince suits that hemorrhaging money is a good thing actually. You think Yves is up there giving status updates on the next Rayman? Grow up.

You're forgetting the institutional shareholders who literally announced their plans to advance society. Sure they're not the ONLY ones.

You only have anti-woke fatigue because you're a little cuck coward who lets the world command your thoughts. We've had woke shit for a little over 10 years now and it is VERY clear most people are sick and tired of it. The fact that you aren't and are even defending it just shows that the ideology has successfully ingrained itself into your mind. This anti-woke campaign has been going on, what, only about 4-5 months now? And you're tired of it? Grow up.

>>716114873
It's far more direct. Fink and the like, posted above, demand ESG for access to capital.

ESG requires that you meet metrics, which means people dedicated to assessing progress. Fink just happens to have consulting groups and experts ready to go for those positions. Those people add staff either dedicated to advancing ESG initiatives or promote people who are aligned, and remove people who aren't.

Track those people in the companies and credits, and lo and behold. It's literally SBI. That's how you convince Namco to blow so much money on Unknown, and Squenix to blow money on forspoken, and the people who REMOVED the chief creative officer of Ubisoft.

Notice that they were strangely quick on the trigger for Tango Gameworks when Hi Fi Rush was a hit? Guess what the consultants said. That improves MS's ESG scores for race, because they're all east asians.

She left because Hololive requires you to actually work day and day out to do and schedule ads and promos. It's legitimately exhausting work having to maintain kayfabe at events where you're working on 2 hours of sleep for a week. Going indie just means doing whatever you want.

They skipped and dodged giving any real answers. The Question was TWO parts. 1. was about the woke and racist game Assassins Creed Shadows. And 2. was about Stop Killing Games.
His answer was just a very bland recounting of marketing material. The game is about telling stories about heroes. He then lied about the character being real. And he glossed over everything else that was asked. Then he gave some BS answer about Stop Killing Games about how the game in question had the option to buy into servers for some amount of money. Which sounds completely made up. And then he also gave a completely made up answer about how that game had plans for offline play in the future.

You are correct. What you're describing is how their solution is a zero-sum game
They believe tearing down white hetero men will somehow pull up every other group on the planet and achieve some vague utopia of "equality". They cannot understand why broke and working class white people are disgusted by this "solution" and see it as an impending South Africa/Rhodesia nightmare. These leftists are out of touch with any working man. I used to be a leftist.

I dislike the term bourgeoisie because I am middle class so wokeism and communism are against my class interests.

To put it into perspective:
Assassin's Creed Shadows has about 2,600 people in its credits, not even counting all of the other support studios also listed but only credited by studio name. There's so many people touching hands on this piece of AAA sloppa shit that the full credits sequence is 3.5 hours long. I'm not joking.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5VYcPXnuDA
Mario Kart World was in development for about 8 years and only has 5 minutes of credits for about 470 people, with about 80 of those being for all the different localization teams.
DK Bananza just came out and was made with 450 people, which also has a big chunk of that being localization teams as well as Pauline's voice actrress in like 12 different languages.
Ubisoft is in this mess because they're retarded and think more employees = bigger returns, when the real issue is that their products aren't worth the hash the digital keys are signed to.

>more and more people are making video games
>consumers have less and less time to play video games
>therefore consumers try to get the best product they can to spend their little time on
Why is this hard for AAA retards to understand? NOBODY is going to buy your slop unless it's actually good anymore.

>>716118158
The left can't meme.

and the right can't lead

>>716117984
You can't convince me the only reason Ubisoft has studios all over the world is because they're taking advantage of some local investments by the government. IIRC that's what happened with Skull and Bones. They legally had to release a game by the Singapore? studio because otherwise they wouldn't be entitled to the government's money. It's one big scam pretending to be a company. Ubisoft deserves to die more than even the likes of EA.

because of the last 2 decades they think they can just push more ads and marketing and propaganda to get the profits they want, but the old ways aren't working anymore.

simple, you hire too many people and you make products nobody wants. Its like gravity. The subsidies are like a hot air balloon, or a life vest. but if whatever its carrying is too heavy, it'll crash regardless.

>In December 1990, Kotick sold his stake in Leisure Concepts and purchased a 25% stake in the almost-bankrupt Activision, then known as Mediagenic, with business partner Brian Kelly. In 1991, Kotick changed the name back to Activision, performed a full restructuring of the company, and refocused the company on making and marketing video games.[6][9][5] Kotick became CEO of Activision in February 1991.[10][11] From 1997 to 2003, Activision acquired nine development studios and released its first hit game in 1995.[5]
>At Activision, Kotick set out to build "an institutional quality, well-managed company with a focus on the independent developer."[6] In a June 14, 2010, interview with gaming blog Kotaku, Kotick stated, "…[P]art of the whole philosophy of Activision was whether you're owned outright or not, if you're a studio you have control of your destiny, you could make decisions about who to hire, flexibility on what products to make, how to make them, schedules appropriate to make them, budgets."[12]
The Activision story should be Ubisoft's gameplan. Instead, they will follow mega publishers Midway, THQ, Acclaim, and others to the grave.

Expedition 33 is very funny because the 10-minute prologue has like 200 blacks and then none the rest of the game.

>who the fuck are they literally making the game for?
The French fucks somehow convinced the Canadian taxpayers to give them hundreds of millions of dollars every year.

They make their games to meet whatever diversity quotas they need to meet to get the Canadian taxpayers to keep that gravy train rolling.

Speaking of my experience in the corporate world, it's ALLdriven by women, usually white women.

It's pretty funny, but it's also borderline grifting. Like, my team got a new member and she immediately started talking about how she was big into representation and always joined or led the corporate programs pushing for minorities and women to be elevated.

Women have completely hitched themselves to this wagon, any of these diversity teams are 90% female and 90% white. We didn't have a single troon in the entire company, but we had a lot of all women getting promoted over their better qualified male colleagues, because of optics.

There was a trans romance interest in the game?

>>716121419
Bro, you have no idea.

>>716121419
Ibuki, it just seems the person asking hadn't deciphered adding 'trans' to 'non-binary' is just further attention seeking behavior as you don't transition to it, but you're supposed to respect it because BIGOT.

I like the idea that chinese shareholders do care because they want to kill the company and buy the ip.... Hmmmm....

>>716093153
The only downside to shareholders is exactly what you stated.
They only care about profits. They want to see funny number go up.
That will eventually lead to friction with the customer, because to meet growth target companies eventually overreach and alienate them.
The only thing shareholders like to do direction-wise is ask:
>"Why aren't you doing [latest trend] to increase shareholder returns?
>"What are your plans with [latest trend] to captivate [new market]?"
etc.
So woke stuff actually did creep in there at times via proxy, because it could pop up as [latest trend]. Let's not forget that AC: Shadows was the direct product of the George Floyd riots and the BLM movement to capitalize on, what was at the time, the [latest trend]. It's just that Shadows took so long to make.

>>716093153
One shareholder might be against it after it fails but there are a lot of shareholders. Also it's not the same before as after, if the shareholders complained before the game release they would have change it for sure but in their minds the world is trending towards wokeness and they're riding the wave. Everyone is at fault

>>716092769
If you think that's all "woke" means, you haven't been paying attention. You can have a gay character in a game and the game isn't woke. You can have a transgender character in a game and the game isn't woke. Wokeness isn't the presence of these characters, it's the underlying ideology that pushes people to include these characters.

Should've made Yasuke an orangutan. There's absolutely no historical source that proves or disproves that Yasuke totally wasn't not an orangutan.

>>716089582
I was listening to the Mitsubishi Motors shareholders a couple of years ago and I remember one of the shareholders asking if the board members were going to give themselves a raise because he felt like they really needed one.

>>716126724

>>716092769
The way all of this was realized in the past and the only sane way to do it is if it gets tangentially brought up. There are people you know irl that are gay and you don't know about it because they don't parade it around and they don't make it their whole personality. When you realize this you should realize you can't make good woke stories and games. It is by necessity a disgusting over the top caricature of reality. And only way a sane person could stomach it is if it is designed as satire from the start.

>>716128840
This. Those same investors are the ones who pushed for Blackrock money and woke so they can get bigger returns but now that DEI and faggotry is not giving the the same returns as it did a few years back. Investors are subhuman. I mean it.

>>716129135
Yeah i also think in the end it is shareholders. It was probably as simple as everyone thinking blackrock money is free money just there to be picked up and all the requested quotas will have no effect on sales or customer satisfaction.

>>716119015
Yes, but it's not just that. The devs at Nintendo are actually expert players who know what their games are supposed to look like and how they are supposed to play. Their small numbers provide a better communication between different teams, they have a clear vision since from the start, and they know how to bounce back from unexpected problems/delays.

Ubisoft, and other ginormous companies like them, lost their core identity. They are made of immense teams who span across the globe, often comprised of people who can barely communicate in the same language. There are so many directors, lead artists, specialists and coordinators a game's aesthetic can change every two years. They have no idea what made AC so appreciated and loved, since most of their devs are young hires who never touched a controller before or old jaded fucks who lost all momentum. I'm not saying Nintendo is perfect, far from it, but they are the only true videogame company left at this point.

This is why I’ve always been told that the first thing you should do with lottery winnings is hire an accountant. Rich people don’t stay rich because they know money, they stay rich because they know people. It’s how you get jobs too.

Shareholders aren’t subhuman. They’re inhuman. The shareholder himself isn’t necessarily retarded but they go through so many loops and channels for their income that their decisions are wholly devoid of human thought. It’s like, a soup of human thoughts.

>>716129643

Thank you for cracking open my skull and translating what I’ve been thinking, anon. Thank you. I don’t get why more people don’t recognize how More Voices = Less Direction.

It’s decadence, actually. Classic decadence, as Lovecraft would use it in the Mountains of Madness. If you lose sight of who you are, the only thing you can hold onto on are the products you used to make. It’s like a cargo cult imitating the efforts of better men because you are not those men, and lack the wisdom to recognize what those men went through to reach their visions.

The Human spirit is not dead, it’s only in a state of constant agony over false gods gone mad after reading their own bibles and falling to worship of themselves.

Or just removed him general. He is only there so they have a Templar mention/link since Naoe is the Assassin's mention/link.

Remove him and remove the Hidden Ones/Assassin's "Ikki" and nothing in the game would've changed story-wise and they could've removed the Assassin's Creed name from it to have no backlash if they included the Nagger.

THAT's how fucked up they fucked up "Assassin's Creed:" Japan.

>Tom Clancy
They aren't doing SHIT with it beyond:

>The Division 3
Not announced, and Massive (the developers) were busy with

>>716093342
It's the managers and directors retard. You literally can't implement an idea as a dev without the adult daycare department holding 20 meetings just to tell you that they just KNOW that the consumers want X, Y and Z slop based on their "research".
Shareholders only care about their share value, they literally can't give less than a fuck about what the company does. I own slightly over 10% of a private company and I honestly don't even know what the company sells exactly anymore after all these years, I just go once a year at shareholders meeting, look at the numbers, vote on proposals and that's all.

>>716087537 (OP)
So? What was the answer?
Why is Ubisoft (and AC Shadows) woke?

>40+ yo people unironically saying the word woke
lol

>>716117984
Don't forget that Shadows also had the standard placeholder "PLEASE REMOVE THIS PORTION BUT LEAVE THE FOLLOWING" license text in the credits as well. Credits are an AVENGERS LEVEL THREAT™ for the ENDGAME™ that even Ubisoft employees didn't check them.

Corporations have a duty to operate in the interest of shareholders and if they don't they can be sued by the shareholders. Asking if the Ubisoft is pushing political propaganda over shareholder interest is a very real question with very real legal consequences.

But you guys are all faggots and manbaby troon twitter freaks so rational thoughts don't register in your drug addled minds.
