They just dislike anything that is trending "in a bad way" or makes any major company look bad by "spreading the conversation/awarness in any way shape or form.." 😒
I've been saying that for years. Unfortunately, there's nothing really like it out there and even if there was people are hesitant to move to another platform. Especially content creators that have established audiences here.
Yeah, it's absurdly expensive to make a large video platform like this, unfortunately. I hate UA-cam but Love the content here. It's just sad that the content has to be filtered from people who expect a bottom line profit. Only the millionaires will swear in their videos because they don't give a shit about the bottom dollar.
It's already insane that swear words are solid ground for demonetization in the first place. Is this a god damn preschool recess gathering? UA-cam is going well beyond PC censoring territory. They're trying to make the English language taboo.
Here's five more for ya. Resident Evil has several female leads. The first two games of the Trails francise had a female lead, and she continues to reappear to multiple of the other games. The Alice series has a female lead. Bayonetta is the definition of women sell. Parasite Eve is also one with female leads. I'll give you a sixth for free. Touhou is not only woman lead but almost exclusively women.
UA-cam is crazy they will censor anything. I think yongyea uploaded it first with the words not censored and then youtube demonitized it so it had to edit it
“Women don’t sell” *has business meetings at strip clubs* How do stupid people fail to the top? What are they doing that deserves millions in salary? It’s a common problem that top execs have very abusive and toxic personalities, why is that the norm? I have so many questions that make my head hurt trying to understand.
How do women continually sleep their way to the top? It's all about who you know and who you blow. Then lie about to conveniently sweep into their job.
@NadineLuvs It's not that female characters are worse by default but they are so poorly written so often. They don't necessarily have to be realistic people but it seems that there isn't really any variety on female protagonists' personalities. It seems like they are always the same more or less independent women who're glorified with masculinity rather than their feminity. They are okay once in a while but reading the same book over and over again gets very boring. One of my favorite video game protagonist is Gris (in videos game called GRIS). The game tells a beautiful and emotional story about a girl who has fallen to bottom.
@Blacklight Redlight Usually people claiming this nobody would want to touch with a 10 foot pole. Also look up the whisper networks in comics that have been making headlines, it's not a fantasy.
Let's not forget the male victim as well. Sexual harrassment and abuse aren't mistakes, I'm tired of those in power inside America just getting a slap on the hand for heinous and illegal behavior, and I'm not just talking about THIS SHIT in particular.
@@dogg-paws I saw you on another comment thread. Nice try trying to use my words against me lmao. That attempt just made you look like a dumbass since it doesn't make sense in the context of what I said here. My last sentence literally said I wasn't just talking about sexual misconduct... how desperate you gotta be to hide what a shill you are?
Yes. Swearing or saying anything that advertisers might consider controversial in the first minute will greatly decrease or outright disable monetization on the entire video.
"Be 'better than Tolkien'" as a demand to place on your devs in order for them to make something in that "setting"/genre is...something else. It's been over half a century and no one's actually *done* that yet--not a high standard, that's just impossible.
Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson for me but its my opinion. Lotr is still extremely high up there but fantasy is doing incredible since the last ten years.
Camurgladius not to mention that Tolkien had time and took his time when writing his stories! He would never accept that team taking so much time just creating lore.
@@MetalCharlo I can see why, but I don't think they've done something as enormous as setting the standard and creating the blueprints for the entire fantasy genre. Even if you hate the cliché of dwarves living underground and loving money and elves being lithe, immortal and nature-loving, the reason why that's the norm is because of Tolkien and that's an ENORMOUS contribution to the fantasy genre
I realize Jason Schreier isn't loved by everyone, but the man is on a tear lately. I got nothing but respect for the work he's doing, hopefully significant changes will be made in the game industry because of him calling out bullshit. Maybe it'll even inspire better working conditions for other industries ... after inspiring other journalists to call out those industries, of course. There's no change in a corporation unless they get caught.
@@pootispiker2866 I agree 100%. I personally believe to be an effective journalist you have to be just a little bit of an asshole. If you are not pissing people off you are not doing your job. I don't like a lot of what Jason has said but he is one of the few figures in games media that can even remotely be called a "journalist"
For the most part but hes still an ideologue. Nothing is wrong with games giving the player a choice what they want to be. They hated Assassins Creed cause it wasnt female led and female only
@@TheDORIANGRAE Who is "they"? The problem wasn't the choice between Kassandra and Alexios, but how they got there. AC: Syndicate was even worse, reducing the female lead's role so that the male could take center stage. And for AC: Origins, the female lead was entirely cut. Because "women don't sell". Pull your head out of the sand and start paying attention.
UA-cam is guilty of protecting those guilty of abuse and misconduct. They censored a bunch of videos concerning Jeffrey Epstein when people said he didn’t kill himself. We all know he didn’t, but Susan seems to prop up degenerates like him.
Leftists are getting punished by this policy too, dude. If I make any specific arguments about the ongoing violence faced by stigmatized groups of people, my content gets outright removed without notification. If I say anything more explicit than ‘some real bad stuff happens to some people, my dude!’ I get the axe.
@@Densoro and you know which side pushed for this nonsense? The same one that only now is concerned that they are being targeted aswell but would be okay if only those who disagree with them would be punished.
@@Densoro you mean like the left silences abused women that go against someone on their side? And encourage false accusations against anyone on the other, yeah bastions of morality...
...and yet there's no issue with not one but TWO longplay videos (hint: it's not Misconduct Game , which happens to be a sixth season _Rizzoli and Isles_ episode.)
I love how UA-cam protects corporations when it comes to words like "Abusive" and "Misconduct" and those words in particular need to be censored. Nice having that bias naked and open for all to see
if woman dont sell than why do all men play girls in mmorpg's its so bad that the meaning changed from massive multiplayer online role playing game to many men online role playing girls
James Cameron likes women so much that he replaced the male lead in the Terminator franchise with a woman. And before all you Cameron-fanboys say that he didn't direct the movie nor write it: No fucking shit. Do some research. Cameron is the one that pitched the idea that John Connor be killed off and replaced with a woman. So Cameron did put.the final nail in the coffin of a dying franchise.
ikr. It's something that sounds like criticizing would just bring a "dude, how can you not want diversity!?" reaction, but at the same time, in these companies it really doesn't mean anything.
Just a typical silver spoon shit, who was never clipped around the ears for being a douche. They grow up with a mentality of I'm better than everyone else and can treat people like trash and never suffer any consequences.
I used to think you couldn't get anywhere if you weren't meeting really high standards, near perfection. But the more that comes out, the more it seems that er, barely functional people are getting placed into powerful positions, for some reason. (I get some lenience if the eccentricity is just a side for some really innovative stuff, but it sounds like they tolerated some stuff that really shouldn't be tolerated from anyone, and he wasn't providing a positive impact on the company either."
@@dakat5131 connections, it's all that matters, if you are the son of a big Ubisoft shareholder you won't have any difficulty getting an high executive job in the company, even if you are a complete idiot.
@@arx3516 And yeah..i always had a feeling that Ubisoft, and especially EA, were controlled by pathetic higher-ups in the company. Maybe before the whole loot box scheme. Oh + Activision, ruining the fun and passion behind games.
So all I'm hearing is that Hascoet was just three dogs in a trenchcoat with all that growling. Joking aside, this is very, very alarming. It's a shame that this dude won't be feeling any distinct repercussions from this. I can only hope that he gets a red mark in his ledger and the next place he gets hired do their homework and backcheck him thoroughly. It also saddens me that the basic pillars of respect and integrity for all, by all, in a work environment isn't commonplace, and I've just been really lucky with the places and positions that I've worked in.
Getting rid of the HR head. That is telling. She was probably dead-ending/disappearing any report that was entered against Serge with the help of Yannis. A little clique of people that enabled and covered for a bulling big wig. I know nothing about Ubisoft's inner workings, but hat is how I read the information.
I'll tell you what we need Bufford T Justice on the case. "what we're dealing with here is a complete lack of respect for the law" "i saw that you sum bitch i've got the evidence"
YongYea: "He did compromise the moment he decided not to do anything about it." No, that's wrong. His core values never conflicted with abuse and harassment. They still don't, but now he really has to protect his bottom line (which is his core value, most likely).
The sad part is this happens in hundreds of corporations and because ubisoft and certain companies are more popular than others, they get exposed in public. Other corporation will continue to abuse employees until they quit and nothing will change cus they dont get expose.
@Roger Dodger Activision lost half their workforce and they didn't even care, is not about the "ultimate consecuences", is about the real concern of the people behind the high commands of a company, and it seems at least in Ubisoft some bosses still care of the reputation of the company
@Roger Dodger Thank you! People are afraid to say it but half the fault lies with employees. If you chose to work for corrupt company that is known for its corrupt practices, you only have yourself to blame WAnt to work for BLizzard or EA? Dont bitch and complain when they abuse you. Thats like touching a knowingly hot stove and getting pissed off at the stove for being on when you chose to touch it of your own free will
@Roger Dodger That's because the U.S failed to further regulate corporations. Corporations moving out would have happened regardless with unions or not. If blaming unions is what you'll do then gtfo and go back to blowing boots
@Jordan Ghill if we want change in the industry, this type of information needs to be spread, even if most of it is negative. Have a little empathy, it is sad that in this day in age some workers (around a lot of industries, not only gaming) are still being treated like slaves. This needs to stop.
@Jordan Ghill Surely you haven't seen him going back to show updates to situations with positive resolutions, like with that game that got review bombed by a single person, or anything with CD Projekt Red (making Cyberpunk 2077) who have actually been acting generally good, and receive positive news from Yongyea as well. There isn't a lot positive in the industry, so of course most the news is going to be negative, but there are bits here and there that are better recieved, and he will bring it up as it comes. Actual news stations are pretty similar- don't watch local news in Chicago, it is actually a daily deathcount of who got shot in southside, interuppted by the occasional "lost puppy found" and the weather. Because guess what? A lot of people get shot in Chicago. You can accuse them of being dishonest for showing a lot of negative news, but if he just focuses on the positive, that doesn't help Yongyea's credibility at all, especially in this shitstorm of an industry.
Guys, GUYS, listen to me, you're too harsh on YT's algorithm. Of course they censored words like "abuse" and "misconduct" to make the platform a safe space for all... abusers, a safe space for all abusers.
@@TechnoBro999 They truly are, but I couldn't help but point it out this time. Literally everyone is on the censors and I'm more worried about what's going on at Ubisoft lol
Caught this on release. Nice. Edit: Glad some of the higher-ups are seeing some consequences, but I'm still hoping for some more accountability. Good step forward; the rest of the industry should take note and have a hard look at themselves too.
Pretty much the entire world is run by manbabies. I wouldn’t be surprised if manbabies infected the business world in addition to worldwide politics. Sadly, it seems like intelligent, responsible adults who continue to find new ways to mature are at a huge disadvantage in 2020...
The fact that the majority of the HR department threatened to resign en-masse and destroy the company's ability to 'protect' itself from allegations of abuse if they were not explicitly given blanket immunity from any investigation or consequences is the strongest proof I can think of that they had been utterly compromised. If I'm running or consulting for a firm and their HR team tries to pull that stunt as abuse allegations emerge, I'm firing every single one of them that day and bringing in independent consultants to scour the books for outright corrupt or criminal conduct.
Samus Aran doesn't sell as much as Mario, Zelda or Pokemon. Her last major game was Metroid Other M, which didn't sell enough so she got demoted to secondary character in a Metroid 3DS game, where the main character is a no name space marine. That's gotta burn.
Tomb Raider was the first game that came to mind because there are several games and movies that span over 20+ years. I knew there were other good examples that I hadn’t thought of.
Its circular logic all of the games they sale are men lead so they they start believing only men sale pretty stupid and ignorant because your main character can be X and still sell if the game is well written and well made
"We have made tough decisions and we made sure those decisions had a clear and positive impact." Translation "We kept getting complaints but he kept making us money so we made the tough decision to ignore it. This had a clear impact on our staff but we didn't care because we are only interested in positive impacts on our profits."
I really hope everyone who was victimized sue the hell out of Ubi and get all they can take from them. No one deserves or should have to go through anything like this. Gonna think twice about any Ubi game going forward
My brother is so suckered by Ubisoft's worn-out open-world swill that he actually downplays their horrible history as a company whenever I bring it up.
Ubisoft is known to focus on quantity rather than quality, that's why their games are repetitive, they're lazy and greedy, they don't appreciate their games, they downgrade graphics and change the story
Activision & EA, Twin Pairs of Destruction What if CDPR have this problem as well ? Do you still support them ? Let’s be real, this kind of crap exists in other places as well. But hey, you’ll never know until someone expose it. We didn’t know about the crunches in CDPR until it got exposed. Though, it’s not that bad like this one, this is just fucked up. But my point is, you’ll never know. Maybe CDPR have this kind of shit as well, maybe. Will you still support them if they have this problem ? Or you’ll ignore it because “They’re customers friendly”.
@@someguyonyt2831 ??? What's the point of this comment? Any company who's exposed for shit like this will lose tons of potential customers. That's why something like this news coming out about Ubisoft's top dogs is such a PR disaster. Why are you so focused on CDPR?
@@CrossKaizer Well let's focused in another beloved companies: Rockstar and Naughty Dog, recently in the sight of everyone for questionable crunch culture and creative abuses as well (One of them even sued for tax evation). Are you gonna defend them only because they made good games and friendly-consumer practices while Ubisoft must be destroyed because they were doing bad games and questionable monetization? I think that is what he reffering
@Jack C * 26 years ago I didn't say it was hard, Hopefully we can see different types of games with Serg's exit we can see more than just open-worlds, I'm an open-world guy so I won't be as excited about it
They had no intention on releasing that game. Bet on it, cancelling the game was a way to punish the employees (wasting their time) and players (less entertainment options) for the backlash to force a connection in shills' minds: "abuse gets reported" = "games get cancelled", so when this happens again all the people who blindly support Ubisoft will say "You hate games and don't care about the developers and all the hard work they put in!".
Seems like there should be some safeguard to make sure the company isn't wasting time and money on stuff that never had a chance. When it's a game that the people in charge of approving games state they will not stand for, it shouldn't get past maybe some initial designs and proposals before whoops,surprise surprise, it was a waste of resources.
Given that just about every single of their games in the last half decade or more have been soulless as all hell, i'm not exactly surprised shit is bad over there... EDIT: To be clear, Im not saying that things are suddenly gonna become like the good old days, but at the very least things might have a chance to get better.
@@UniverseGd Far Cry is honestly one of the best examples of their biggest issues. Farcry 4 was basically just Farcry 3 set in a different setting, (even down to pretty much indentical gun models, etc) Fary Cry 5 was a game without really much more than the most basic recreation of the same old Far Cry 3 stuff, it looked new, sounded new, and tasted new, but you knew it was just FC3 with a new icing. And then FC:New Dawn comes out and its just FC5 with pointless RPG mechanics which don't accomplish anything of value. Just about every game Ubi has released in a while has basically just been visuals and graphics, while all the gameplay is is just a bunch of ticked boxes with no substance. Its like they forgot that having content is a little less important than having INTERESTING content.
As someone with an extensive history of being abused (I don’t think I’m special it happens to millions), The very fact that UA-cam is censoring conversation around abuse seems to come across as almost endorsing the shroud and taboo that goes hand-in-hand with being a victim of all types of physical and emotional or sexual abuse.
Exactly this. The people who talk about abuse the most are those of us looking for a way out, and looking to protect others. Where abuse teaches us to shut up and take it, we find our voice by calling it out and declaring that it’s _wrong._ And UA-cam wants us to be silent again.
@Stefan van der Sandt That's what they've been doing all this time though. Now that the 'dirt' has become public, they don't have a choice but to do something about it. "We're sorry", is just a quick, generic response from these scumbags. Their next moves will determine where they really stand.
Yes, it's Gamer Tyler Fortnite Ninja F-ing Freaking Blevins Levins's father. It's his long lost Dad, disowned him after he realized he played Fortnite for a living.
@Jack C * 26 years ago Prolly a new fan that only played a few ubi games or so. They're very common cuz Ubisoft releases a lot of reskined games which means new fans would always playe the newer releases instead of the old installments
@Jack C * 26 years ago I love Assassins Creed, Watch Dogs, Far Cry, That's the point for me. I was disappointed in the AC 3 remaster and Enzio Collection remaster.
Ubisucks has been corrupt for at least a decade. Them blaming "Sound Drivers" for the "stuck machine gun sound bug" in RB6:LV2 multiplayer instead of actually fixing the problem, no map editor, unethical MTX, etc. shows that they don't respect your time or money.
This is a good first step. Now all these people need to be put behind bars for their actions and not allowed to get away with just a gracefully resign. They need to be brought to justice.
Just make Michel Ancel the CEO of Ubisoft.😍 Where is Beyond Good and Evil 2!!!???!?!?!!!😭 Akso make a video about how Tanabe and shigeru Grinch miyamoto are implementing ridiculous rules to NOT include characters like Daisy in adventure games and rpgs.😠
Good video. Thanks. I will add that giving one man so much power is also creating enviourment that abuse of that power is prevalent. So giving do much creative control to one person enabled a lot of the harassment and abuse that person comitted. In that sense Ubisoft is responsible for hurting their own employees.
Holy shit thanks for that video. Really eye-opening to see that a giant such as Ubi has such internal problems. I love games but sadly work in a different boring sector not really liking my job (just the paycheck) but its heartbreaking to see ppl involved in what I would guess DREAMJOBS having such problems on a daily basis. Also poor management reflects on the games we receive as end-customers. Fascinating topic - keep topics like these coming, really interesting!
The saddest thing about this not only in Ubisoft, but in every company (not just in gaming industry) that this things have happened multiple times and have been going on for years and years, but no one is taking responsibility, everyone acts like a stupid idiot who doesn't give f about anything and anyone till it escalates on company level and just like that everybody gets surprised and doesn't understand what's going on
So free speech is no longer a thing on youtube. I think it's about time we start looking to other platforms for our daily videos. Hope spotify make a move and start taking a peace of the market from google. Yong you should upload to BitChute also.
Well damn. But I'm still not sold on going back to Ubisoft games after this. Like this was a massive fuckup on a scale not seen before in Game Development and this response is it?
You’re talking like this only happens to Ubisoft. I’m sure many other places has this kind of shit but you’ll never know until someone expose it. What I’m trying to say is that this doesn’t make their games bad. But it does make their workplaces less welcome. I’m still buying their games if it’s good. Let’s be real, this is not gonna affect the customers in anyway. Well, maybe a little but if you’re one of those people who wants to work with Ubisoft. Well, this is your primary concern. This issue is the least customer’s problem.
Yes. Swearing or saying anything that advertisers might consider controversial in the first minute will greatly decrease or outright disable monetization on the entire video.
You're no longer allowed to say things on UA-cam that may be considered to be "UA-cam censored and demonetized this word" because the people in charge of UA-cam are a bunch of oppressive panzy "UA-cam censored and demonetized this word."
Goes to show these AAA game studios dont care about their employees at all. These people had to go outside the company and threaten the company's image with the general public in order for change to happen.
Seriously the gaming industry needs a royal commission (or every other country's equivalent)to look into this stuff, they just seem to be getting more and more corrupt and going on without anyone pulling them into line
The worst part about all of this is that nothing will happen to Hascoet. No comeuppance, no repercussions, no punishment. The injustice of it all makes my blood boil
The fact they listened to the external firm that led the investigation, their wording, and their recent *actions* are rather real indicators that they are walking the talk! We can't expect a perfect and totally clean future, as some issues are systemic in society and most companies, but they are giving real signs of acting seriously. // You are quite right though that they did this after years of complaints and after their reputation and $tocks were hit.

Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson for me but its my opinion. Lotr is still extremely high up there but fantasy is doing incredible since the last ten years.
Camurgladius not to mention that Tolkien had time and took his time when writing his stories! He would never accept that team taking so much time just creating lore.
@@MetalCharlo I can see why, but I don't think they've done something as enormous as setting the standard and creating the blueprints for the entire fantasy genre. Even if you hate the cliché of dwarves living underground and loving money and elves being lithe, immortal and nature-loving, the reason why that's the norm is because of Tolkien and that's an ENORMOUS contribution to the fantasy genre
I realize Jason Schreier isn't loved by everyone, but the man is on a tear lately. I got nothing but respect for the work he's doing, hopefully significant changes will be made in the game industry because of him calling out bullshit. Maybe it'll even inspire better working conditions for other industries ... after inspiring other journalists to call out those industries, of course. There's no change in a corporation unless they get caught.
I don't like him as a person at all, but his journalism is pretty top notch to be entirely honest.
@@pootispiker2866 I agree 100%. I personally believe to be an effective journalist you have to be just a little bit of an asshole. If you are not pissing people off you are not doing your job. I don't like a lot of what Jason has said but he is one of the few figures in games media that can even remotely be called a "journalist"
He might be an asshole, but he is one of the few REAL journalists in gaming, and by far the best.
For the most part but hes still an ideologue. Nothing is wrong with games giving the player a choice what they want to be. They hated Assassins Creed cause it wasnt female led and female only
@@TheDORIANGRAE Who is "they"? The problem wasn't the choice between Kassandra and Alexios, but how they got there. AC: Syndicate was even worse, reducing the female lead's role so that the male could take center stage. And for AC: Origins, the female lead was entirely cut. Because "women don't sell".

No, that's wrong. His core values never conflicted with abuse and harassment. They still don't, but now he really has to protect his bottom line (which is his core value, most likely).
The sad part is this happens in hundreds of corporations and because ubisoft and certain companies are more popular than others, they get exposed in public. Other corporation will continue to abuse employees until they quit and nothing will change cus they dont get expose.
@Roger Dodger Activision lost half their workforce and they didn't even care, is not about the "ultimate consecuences", is about the real concern of the people behind the high commands of a company, and it seems at least in Ubisoft some bosses still care of the reputation of the company

@Jordan Ghill if we want change in the industry, this type of information needs to be spread, even if most of it is negative. Have a little empathy, it is sad that in this day in age some workers (around a lot of industries, not only gaming) are still being treated like slaves. This needs to stop.
@Jordan Ghill Surely you haven't seen him going back to show updates to situations with positive resolutions, like with that game that got review bombed by a single person, or anything with CD Projekt Red (making Cyberpunk 2077) who have actually been acting generally good, and receive positive news from Yongyea as well.
There isn't a lot positive in the industry, so of course most the news is going to be negative, but there are bits here and there that are better recieved, and he will bring it up as it comes.
Actual news stations are pretty similar- don't watch local news in Chicago, it is actually a daily deathcount of who got shot in southside, interuppted by the occasional "lost puppy found" and the weather. Because guess what? A lot of people get shot in Chicago.
You can accuse them of being dishonest for showing a lot of negative news, but if he just focuses on the positive, that doesn't help Yongyea's credibility at all, especially in this shitstorm of an industry.

Jeffrey Thrash the hell
The fact that the majority of the HR department threatened to resign en-masse and destroy the company's ability to 'protect' itself from allegations of abuse if they were not explicitly given blanket immunity from any investigation or consequences is the strongest proof I can think of that they had been utterly compromised. If I'm running or consulting for a firm and their HR team tries to pull that stunt as abuse allegations emerge, I'm firing every single one of them that day and bringing in independent consultants to scour the books for outright corrupt or criminal conduct.
How is Guillemot supposed to tackle tomorrow's challlenges when he can't solve yesterday's challenges. Sexism in the workplace is not a new concept.
Female characters don’t sale? Guess he’s never heard of Laura Croft.
was about to mention this! and Horizon Zero Dawn
My favorite ubisoft game is beyond good and evil. Main character is jade and she's a bad ass. I wonder if that has anything to do with bg&e2
Samus Aran doesn't sell as much as Mario, Zelda or Pokemon. Her last major game was Metroid Other M, which didn't sell enough so she got demoted to secondary character in a Metroid 3DS game, where the main character is a no name space marine. That's gotta burn.
Tomb Raider was the first game that came to mind because there are several games and movies that span over 20+ years. I knew there were other good examples that I hadn’t thought of.
Its circular logic all of the games they sale are men lead so they they start believing only men sale pretty stupid and ignorant because your main character can be X and still sell if the game is well written and well made
"We have made tough decisions and we made sure those decisions had a clear and positive impact."
Translation
"We kept getting complaints but he kept making us money so we made the tough decision to ignore it. This had a clear impact on our staff but we didn't care because we are only interested in positive impacts on our profits."
So is this the reason that modern Ubisoft only makes assembly line games with the same generic game design in a fixed 2-3 yearly development cycles?
Meanwhile i make better games just as fast & plan to make Arcade ports you can play at laundromats or Dave & Busters alike.
I really hope everyone who was victimized sue the hell out of Ubi and get all they can take from them.
No one deserves or should have to go through anything like this.
Gonna think twice about any Ubi game going forward
My brother is so suckered by Ubisoft's worn-out open-world swill that he actually downplays their horrible history as a company whenever I bring it up.
Ubisoft is known to focus on quantity rather than quality, that's why their games are repetitive, they're lazy and greedy, they don't appreciate their games, they downgrade graphics and change the story
Just scapegoating, nothing will actually change.

@@CrossKaizer Well let's focused in another beloved companies: Rockstar and Naughty Dog, recently in the sight of everyone for questionable crunch culture and creative abuses as well (One of them even sued for tax evation).

I didn't say it was hard, Hopefully we can see different types of games with Serg's exit we can see more than just open-worlds, I'm an open-world guy so I won't be as excited about it
They had no intention on releasing that game. Bet on it, cancelling the game was a way to punish the employees (wasting their time) and players (less entertainment options) for the backlash to force a connection in shills' minds: "abuse gets reported" = "games get cancelled", so when this happens again all the people who blindly support Ubisoft will say "You hate games and don't care about the developers and all the hard work they put in!".
Seems like there should be some safeguard to make sure the company isn't wasting time and money on stuff that never had a chance. When it's a game that the people in charge of approving games state they will not stand for, it shouldn't get past maybe some initial designs and proposals before whoops,surprise surprise, it was a waste of resources.
Given that just about every single of their games in the last half decade or more have been soulless as all hell, i'm not exactly surprised shit is bad over there...
EDIT: To be clear, Im not saying that things are suddenly gonna become like the good old days, but at the very least things might have a chance to get better.
I've stopped caring about their games since Far Cry 3.
@@UniverseGd Far Cry is honestly one of the best examples of their biggest issues. Farcry 4 was basically just Farcry 3 set in a different setting, (even down to pretty much indentical gun models, etc) Fary Cry 5 was a game without really much more than the most basic recreation of the same old Far Cry 3 stuff, it looked new, sounded new, and tasted new, but you knew it was just FC3 with a new icing. And then FC:New Dawn comes out and its just FC5 with pointless RPG mechanics which don't accomplish anything of value.
Just about every game Ubi has released in a while has basically just been visuals and graphics, while all the gameplay is is just a bunch of ticked boxes with no substance. Its like they forgot that having content is a little less important than having INTERESTING content.
@@TuffMelon A lot of reading but I agree on everything. Disappointed on this publisher.
As someone with an extensive history of being abused (I don’t think I’m special it happens to millions), The very fact that UA-cam is censoring conversation around abuse seems to come across as almost endorsing the shroud and taboo that goes hand-in-hand with being a victim of all types of physical and emotional or sexual abuse.
Exactly this. The people who talk about abuse the most are those of us looking for a way out, and looking to protect others. Where abuse teaches us to shut up and take it, we find our voice by calling it out and declaring that it’s _wrong._
And UA-cam wants us to be silent again.
