    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…)

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

      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.

      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
