To be fair, this is why this thread was started in the first place.

But then again far-left progressives like you just have this intrinsic need to force their political viewpoints on others. It's what makes you totalitarian statists. No one willingly follows your ideas, so you seek to use the government to force them to.


Pay attention to what DeSantis is trying to do in Florida and tell us with a straight face this is strictly a far left ideal.

And? He could have easily just ignored the thread. Instead he has to make the claim this forum is full of nothing but "alt-right weirdos".

What is he trying to do? Be specific.

Yet here you are in this thread. And I notice you didn't disagree with what I said.

Damn I thought this was supposed to be a joke until looking it up. Something must be going on behind the scenes for a delay. I’m pretty sure every AC game has been released in November or late October. Even unity which was broken on release

They just admitted that Outlaws underperformed. That probably gave them pause with their marquee IP and want to make sure it's fully ready....per their statement.



At least that's what they say. Who knows.

"Outlaws was a major frick up. We've created another major clusterfrick that's definitely going to tank AC. We probably won't change much so we hope by delaying the game for 5 months and giving you the expansion (that you probably won't buy anyway) that you'll forget about the clusterfrick."

Yes, that something is going woke is causing them to go broke.

Here's hoping this tanks, they go bankrupt, and a competent company purchases all their IP.

They have learned that the "neck beard, mouth breather, straight males" are more than just a target for ridicule

They are LITERALLY the core audience for most every AAA game

If you alienate them, it will fail.

You can deny it
You can argue against it
You can hate that it's true

But it is just true.

And Ubisoft has had to learn the hard way that you shouldn't antagonize and/or alienate your key demographic.

Just ask Bud Light or Lucasfilms.

Also, LOL at them suspending the launch, and thinking they can get more sales thru black friday hand outs, and garbage dlc for free.


But the best and the ultimate LOL at Ubisoft, no, not the stock or their idiot frog ceo/owner, but the fact that they had to bend the knee to Lord Gabe, and steam gets exclusivity for launch. LOLOLOL

Is 3 months enough time to remove Yasuke from the game?

They can't put that toothpaste back in the tube.

Instead they are seeking the cover of releasing it during Black History Month



I am CERTAIN that was a coincidence

no

way

that is hilarious, if true.

Help us Obi-Gaben KeNewell, you are our only hope.

Seriously, though. This means Ubisoft is in deep financial shite. Didn't they say at the last shareholder meeting that they needed Outlaws and Shadows to dominate?

Could Ubisoft be on the verge of bankruptcy? I hope not.

Simple answer is Outlaws made them panic, and with stock issues and bad press, Shadows has to be a big hit. They typically release these games with a bit of jank and just fix it along the way. They can't afford that.

Releasing it in February....maybe that was intentional. Maybe a big F I to the incels. Minor talking point in the big discussion.

Day 1 on Steam is interesting. Most people are celebrating that decision, not mocking it, but it's a decision for sure. We've seen Microsoft and SE push towards multi platform launches mainly because making money is pretty key. Makes sense for Ubisoft, who's not in great shape, so launch on as many platforms as possible.


ETA my question was rhetorical

Pretty sure I posted about it earlier in the thread, but it was more like they were confident in their expected sales numbers because this and outlaws were two of the most anticipated games of the year

But they wouldn’t elaborate on those sales numbers

Every pre-release hype video they’ve put out has been shredded by streamers and YouTubers pointing out every graphical glitch they see. Which has been a lot, and it’s sad that those even make it into these trailers
