Sounds like you got two 'friends' to prune.

Spiking back up on steam, currently 47,562 CCU and i imagine it'll go even higher this weekend as people have free time.

Sad to see so many pc gamers turning gay

I have gay friends and whenever I visit their houses they are spectacularly decorated in a very conservative non gay style. I dont see gay innuendos or dick sculptured into the legs of tabletop. hell I never see them kissing infront of me and friends ever, maybe just hold hands.
So who are they targeting with all this crap, I hope Dave Chappelle catches on and make a skit out of veilguard and this crap.

Ask me how I know you're ugly.

Thing is though it will be very hard to track anyone who actually purchased this thing. Hell, Dominoes pizza was giving away free shadows keys. Just like this:



Free game with solving a puzzle:



Even Ubisoft was giving away keys on Twitter.

Free games given to all their sponsors who are paid to say the game is great - I mean it is REALLY bad the prep that they did to make it seem like this is a well designed game at this point and a TON of smoke and mirrors.

Look, I changed my mind on Avowed but I will not even waste the bandwidth for free to try out this DEI Samurai game where a accent-affecting Black dude (of all the protagonists available in an expansive and rich Japanese history, why would you George Floyd THIS??) they make sure to include in the story he has to option to bang a they/themmer? <What did you saaaaaayyyyy.gif>

Who did they think this game would be for? How many "don't think, just buy product" consumers do the big top down AAAA studios think are out there to justify these budgets and development cycles?

We see project after project fail because development started when the culture was in a different place, and now stands out as a remnant of a different time. We have thrown off the Woke yoke and these lingering virtue signal projects are stark reminders of what they were forcing on us.

I have liked, played, and really enjoyed a number of these games, including the original, Black Flag, AC: Origins, AC: Odyssey (which I played on my 1080ti and really liked), AC: Valhalla (was an MMO-length single player game; too much of anything gets old, I guess.)

I haven't played anything AC since but this game confirms I probably never will.

Don't forget a lot of those are freebies from laptop and video card purchases. I doubt they make much money from those.

saying all these players are from free keys or giveaways is peak cope, along the lines of "Trump stole the election". Ubi+ subs and giveaways are a tiny, tiny, tiny fraction of keys. Its currently the top selling game on steam

1742584235295.png


and its top seller on amazon etc. The crazy thing is typically Ubisoft games are only 25% on PC with 75% coming from consoles, and thats unlikely to have shifted dramatically so consoles are still gonna be selling huge copies since I assume console gamers are more retarded than steam gamers. I wouldn't be shocked if this game does 2-3m in the first 48 hours and 4-6m in the first 30 days. Hell when you start your xbox it has a fucking advertisement for this game on boot.

Face it, most gamers are morons and "Assassins Creed in Japan" is all they needed to hear apparently. Most of them don't give a shit about joggers, historical accuracy, etc. Everyone here ignored Kingdom Come 2 doing extremely well even though its basically "Save the Jews the game" and has all sortsa gay shit in it too.

its not gonna save ubisoft, at the ridiculous budgets they have they'd need to sell like 10m copies of the game at $70 to turn a profit and thats probably not gonna happen but the sales are probably gonna give them 1-2 years of breathing room, which they will almost certainly fuck up. Disappointing but hopefully the wild success of Monster Hunter Wilds and Black Myth Wukong has convinced devs that catering to woke/DEI is not worth it anymore, this is just an outlier.
