Ubisoft kept making garbage and sacrificed their IP’s for the sake of keeping the company alive…

It was doomed.





+1. Can’t believe how they held amazing IPs and then milked them to death while lowering the quality game over game. Whether it’s far cry or assassin’s creed, all the later iterations are worse than the series start.

I’m still bitter at them for canceling XDefiant… it wasn’t a COD killer but it filled a comfortable niche and had potential.

Oh wow, they cancelled it? I played it for a bit on release. Kinda fun, didn't stick with it, but surprised it's already cancelled so short after release.

>”too far away from reaching the results required to enable further significant investment”

That’s the statement they said when they shut it down. Ubisoft only had one goal all of 2010s, to turn item shop marketplace micro transactions into their primary business. They failed. They failed because they forgot why they existed. So let’s all make them remember.
