I think this is correlation without causation. Or at least not exclusively, or even mostly. Don’t get me wrong he’s still a dick.
If you view the statement as a cause itself instead of a symptom, sure. Ubisoft has a shitty corporate mindset and that is directly reflected in the quality of the games they publish.
Could also be that their latest game on ps5 looks worse than a 5 year old PS4 game.
Also despite the repetitive nature of those games, I still always stuck by games like assassin’s Creed, but I didn’t even give the new one an hour before I just got sick of it
Shareholders need to get confortable not owning the value of their share.
Seriously, it in the name: they hold shares not their value.They should also get comfortable paying taxes when the of their shares increases. (If only that were true…)
Shitty companies need to get used to loosing money
Looks like gamers got comfortable with not owning Ubisoft games, just like he wanted.
“Shareholders need to get comfortable not owning their yacht”
The very rich already don’t own most of their things. Banks or the companies they work for/with do
The truly rich people own the banks. Its their world, we just rent some space in it.
Companies need to get comfortable not owning my money!
Shit I’m getting confortable not having any money and I don’t like it
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.
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.
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
you mean to tell me you don’t want to spend $12.99 to be patrick star in discord?? whats wrong with you man
It’s crazy
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?
I thought Ubisoft was known for their shitty launchers.
Why not both?
Shareholders need to get comfortable not buying a new yacht
CEO’s need to get comfortable not owning anything anymore
CEOs need to get comfortable with not existing.
CEO at my job can’t even do the most menial task in the warehouse. Companies will be fine without their posh little darlings
