.... during a time when woke culture was way more accepted than it is now.
Woke culture was never accepted by the masses. It was pretty much pushed down our throats and we were preached to by the Hollywood elites how this should be accepted, but in reality the normies never accepted this. And the sales numbers of all the woke crap Hollywood and gaming industry made during the last 5-6 yrs shows this clearly.

I find it funny how desperately the gaming journalists want this to be a big popular hit game right now but it seems like there is absolutely no buzz about it anywhere. Like nobody is talking about playing it, nobody I pay any attention to is streaming it, it just seems like the majority of the gaming scene simply doesn't care about it.

Is this one of these situations where they are supposed to sell it 5 times more than any previous AC game to break even? Because Steam numbers seem to indicate it being about as successful as their most successful AC game, so I am not sure what the wishful doom and gloom is about.

Regardless of how well (or not well) this or Snow White end up performing, I think the bigger point everyone here is on about is the fact that media is trying to dictate culture, failing, and continuing to try to dictate in spite of poor reception. Media is supposed to echo culture, not dictate it, and culture is supposed to be organic, not manufactured.

I can't check since LLR is too incompetent to have the search function fixed but do you actually ever post in this subforum or are you just parachuting in to defend this dumpster fire? For all his faggotry at least Cybsled is actually a gamer and frequent poster here.

I respect Cybsled. Sort of the same way I respect Gavin Newsom for continuously engaging with people he disagrees with and wading into various lion's dens (the Fox debate, Charlie Kirk's show). These days the bar is so low for the left's ability to have reasonable discourse that someone on that side treating their opponents like actual people and having a good-faith dialogue with them is like a huge gold star.

It'll be crazy if Newsom ends up continuing along this path and becoming a popular-with-independents "voice of reason" candidate and gets completely drummed out of his own party as a result. The next RFK/Elon/etc.

Assassin's Creed peaked with Black Flag. Ubisoft peaked with Black Flag.

I really need to replay Black Flag and Rogue. I only played both of them one time (at launch), really liked both, and sped through them to get to other things.

Personally my favorite in the series is AC2, but I also spent a lot of time with AC2, platinumed it, etc. I've played most of the ACs more than once. BF/R really deserve better.

When is the next earnings call? Would be interesting to hear how their "2 million players" is in sold units.

Ubisoft is continuing its efforts to course-correct after several challenging years. Today, the video game company announced that it will launch a subsidiary centered around three of its most familiar franchises: Assassin's Creed, Far Cry and Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six. The as-yet-unnamed subsidiary will fold in the teams working on those three series, including Ubisoft studios in Montréal, Quebec, Sherbrooke, Saguenay, Barcelona and Sofia.


This new business will receive an investment of €1.16 billion (roughly $1.25 billion) from its longstanding partner Tencent, granting the conglomerate a minority ownership stake. Following the transaction, Ubisoft will narrow focus to its other franchises, such as The Division and Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon.

"Today Ubisoft is opening a new chapter in its history," CEO and Co-Founder Yves Guillemot said. "As we accelerate the company’s transformation, this is a foundational step in changing Ubisoft’s operating model that will enable us to be both agile and ambitious."

Ubisoft has been cutting costs and jobs over the past several months after several of its new projects flopped. There have been hints for a while that the company's leaders were interested in either finding a buyer or exploring a joint venture with Tencent to help reverse its fortunes. It's encouraging that the recent Assassin's Creed: Shadows has already reached 3 million players, but Ubisoft will probably need a few more wins to fully stabilize.

looking at steam friends, Kazan has healthy amount that wants the game and a few that owns it.

Asscreed still only 1 that wants it and non owns it.
