- In defense of Ubisoft, the New York Times used a consultant to claim Japan is excited for Assassin's Creed Shadows. However, it turns out her was a Sweet Baby consultant.

I ame enjoying your body pillow thoroughly. It is being put to good use Rev.
Why are you harping on about about "free market" anti-soviet propaganda from nearly a century ago in a video against modern propaganda? It makes no sense.
To add an extra layer of amusement to the whole thing.
The person in question has a 'name' modelled after an old anime character.
The person in question is actually from Alaska and not from Japan & Japanese is not their 1st Language.
They used to previously also work for Kotaku and IGN
Many of their social media posts seem to be about their cat
They are also a part time V-tuber & Cosplayer.
"When your project fails horribly, just double down on what you were originally doing."
Amazing how these studios and journalists are incapable of learning.
genuinely sad.
To be fair, they tend to fail upward. Until they have to actually face the consequences of their own actions they will never learn.
@@rrudeljr Except that multiple games of theirs flops and they have no more investors or stocks
Considering how much they want to dumpster history, it's not that shocking that they cannot learn from events of the past.
They could have done a No Man's Sky. But nope...
Sweet Baby Inc? They aren't just throwing gasoline on the fire, they're throwing liquid oxygen on that shit.
They're a second plane
They are LITERALLY a rocket combustion chamber at this point

*By the way, I am Japanese and I live in Japan* 🇯🇵
*We’re definitely angry at Ubisoft*

Keep standing strong Mel.

*Ubisoft:* Patrick?
*SBI:* Yeah, Spongebob?
*Ubisoft:* I don't think this bubble can get much bigger...
*SBI:* NONSENSE!!!
*Ubisoft:* PAT NO!!!
What could be worse than a giant needless controversy created by our own incompetence?
I know! Two giant controversies!
Bold of them to assume the West could impersonate every Japanese response.
The Japanese are extremely critical of Japanese companies doing something dumb. For example, Square Enix is being bombarded with criticism from Japanese gamers because of the censorship of Dragon Quest. Shinji Mikami also made a statement criticizing censorship in Japan. You don't see that here on the west very often, especially on social media, where people actually advocates for anticonsumer practices in gaming, and that includes censorship.
They just need something to tell the non-Blackrock/Vanguard investors who're asking questions.
Yeah, Japanese gamers/ consumers are actually vocal about these kind of problems. It just happen gossip/ popular media over there not really interested covering this theme. Political things kinda private
They’re just skin-walkers at this point.
@@TheTerminatorChris Skin-walkers and bone-bags.

Asking sweet baby to save your game from failing is like trying to lift a sinking ship out of the water by detonating tnt under it. All it does though is blow a huge hole in the bottom of the ship and makes it sink faster. If they wanted to consult, they should have hired a based Japanese game designer.
You mean 'a based Japanese-based game designer'
You made me realize they probably only went with Sweet Baby cuz they were probably one of the cheapest options. They get to say they went as far as getting consultants to help while still saving some bucks compared to if they hired the real deal.
Saying Sweet Baby inc is going to save assassin's Creed Shadows is like saying fighting fire with fire will put out the fire .
I would argue it’s like the oil with put out the fire.
If you burn everything to the ground, there wont be anything left to sustain the fire. With that in mind, Ubisoft is hell bent on putting out the fire with recent releases.
"If you want to snuff a fire, you start an even bigger fire.
OH GOD THE BIG FIRE HAS JUST MADE THE FIRE EVEN BIGGER!"
Fighting fire with fire is a legit way to put out a fire... starving the fire of oxygen by burning the oxygen and fuel is a legit way to put out a fire.
What you should have said is that "Saying Sweet Baby inc is going to save assassin's Creed Shadows is like using water to put out an oil fire".
I hope everyone gets fired, but that's unrelated 🔥
i love how much SBI is a part of open conversation nowadays. its like shining a bright light and seeing the cockroaches and rats scatter
Sunlight is the best disinfectant.
@@blazingmonolith4323 yes sir
wait until they merge in a Black Rock megazord
"But SBI is a murican company, why would they bother with participating in the French market using Japanese experts?! This is obviously a psy op 😭😭😭"
Is what they'll say next... Dam, that accusation made by monkey game devs is getting more believable by the day 😂
Isn't it canadian?
SBI is Canadian company, funded by Blackrock (American hedgefund).
@@yunusgokcen174 right... But logic doesn't works with them, that's an actual argument I've seen from a weirdo to justify that SBI would never extort wukong, because they're Chinese 🤣
Ironically SBI isn't the worst of these companies they are just one of many.
Ubisoft's stock price has sunk under $3 per share, they may not survive a massive failure. Get your popcorn ready, it's gonna be good.
IIRC they get delisted if goes under $1 per share, correct?
@@Pulstar232 Depends on the exchange. The bigger worry are the investors, they have legal grounds to seek recourse over wanton mismanagement of their funds. If it were somehow smooth sailing despite the price dump, the board would likely move to restructure the shares, essentially merging them at some ratio to keep the company from being seen as a penny stock. How easy this is to do depends on whether they have fractional shares, among a number of other headaches.
Business degrees don't take a lot of smarts to earn, the reason we pay people with them so much is because nobody with a smidge of human drive could stand to slog through work like this.
@@Pulstar232 If that stocks is under 2 euros, stockx will have to remove ubistock
Misinfomration. It still 12. Idk if I should be happy or sad since AJ investors accusation
Right, remember to pour water in a smoking oil pan.
And an electrical fire
With the Chinese architecture in a game set on feudal Japan, the black samurai, the incredible moonwalking horse, and the flood of bots on UA-cam channels that are critical of the game, one could think Ubisoft couldn't sink lower.
But they did. No one expected anything from Ubisoft, and people are still disappointed.
“Colonialism” In Animal Crossing... A game where a local investor outsources construction of a town to you, an indebted immigrant.
Ubisoft: SBI how do we fix our game?
SBI: Have you tried calling them racist?
Ubisoft: We have, and it didn't work.
SBI: Try adding more black people into the game.
and make them gay
I am not stupid enough to even begin to comprehend what they were thinking.
You gotta get on that French-grade connoisseur glue, pal.
I’m trying to comprehend what kind of blackmail SBI has on all the leaders within these studios. I can’t see any other reason for it.
@@SwattinStones blackmail? My guy these two companies are singing from the same hymn sheet.
*I felt their presence like Vader felt Obi Wan on the Deathstar* 😑
The trash fire called AC Shadows will be entertaining to watch burn down.
Can't wait for all the cat ladies with their activism to get fired in few months, I'm gonna laugh my ass off
This reminds me of the controversy with Netflix's Cleopatra. The Egyptian government actually got involved with that.
Having an ex SBI to do damage control for your game is like drinking bleach to quench thirst
I don't know what you're talking about, man, it works. Bleach will quench your thirst for sure. If you drink enough of it you'll never be thirsty again.
well, it worked tho, you will never fill thirsty ever again.
But it works tho, you will never feel thirsty again in your life.

UA-cam keeps Removing my comment......
Ubisoft CAUGHT Using Sweet Baby Consultant To "Save" Assassin's Creed Shadows.
a wise man once said "Its joever".
Kim Belair, SBI's CEO, is a full time staff writer at Ubisoft Montreal. Not was, but is. She removed it from her CV at their request. But she's been involved with AC Shadows from the beginning, so it's unsurprising her fingerprints are on the so-called Japanese expert.
The fact that they couldn't just remove Yasuke from the story suggests that the entire narrative arc is going to be about Geolge Froyd-san shouting I CAN'T BREEVE and writing haikus about the ceiling bird chirping.
Everytime I ask 'could these people get any slimier', they do.
Like a recycled condom
Yep, just like gum on your shoe.
You guys dont understand, Ubisoft is accurate to japanese culture
When the game fails, the company commits corporate seppuku
Sweet baby inc:❌
Sweet baby rays:✅
sweet baby bankrupt
I doubt even an okay barbeque sauce could save this disaster.
"This game is on a path to destruction."
"What you say?"
"You have no chance to survive. Make your time.
HA HA HA."
.....They will never learn... they need to go bankrupt....
How many world renowned writers do you think ever need a narrative consultant? Oh, sure I bet that they ask a bunch of people, friends or other writers for advice and go "hey look at this bit for me, what do you think?" Another way to look it is imagine an artist being told how to move their paintbrush and where to paint on the canvas and after they've finished the other guy picks up a brush and starts drawing over the top of their work. You think an artist would accept that when this is their baby and vision? This is why a lot of the time consultation is just in my mind a scam.
The flip side of that is the logical conclusion to your scenario: the consultant is the one effectively doing all the work, and the employer is little more than a public face and brand. This is how most multinational businesses operate. Leadership of the company is outsourced to one of like three massive consultancy firms, who handle everything from establishing business operations to naming the very CEO. Worse yet, whole countries are starting to operate like that, dumping money into consultancy to cover just about every function, instead of cultivating talent and knowledge internally.
@@Cris-bj7ee
Except that flipside sounds hollow.
Sure maybe one to idk maybe three times a scam like that might work and produce a masterpiece. Heck I'll even admit that with horrific contracts a specific "consultant" may be forced to never reveal they were the actual reason for any quality in the writing so that time the supposedly renowned writer there gets all the credit but in the long run thats not where the good things tend to come from.
On the average the great stuff doesn't rely on procedures and set up companies but on a vision and creativity and no amount of planning and consultancy can turn slop into a great success. If that was possible all recent attempts at AAA-subcrition games should have been resounding successes.
They are all giving themselves a pat on the shoulder. Reminds me of the Obama meme where he gives himself a medal (reward). 😂
Ubisoft has been sending bots to negatively attack my channel recently. Very funny.
I wonder if investors could drag Ubi to court over Ubi lying to them about the games being "well-received by gamers."
It's gotta be *some* kind of illegal, right? It's, like, _reverse_ insider trading.
Shorting stock exists, so it's just regular insider trading.
@@Sorain1 Also, lower stock prices would be very convenient for major multinational shareholders who want to consolidate their ownership, and care more about the IPs than about the studios developing them. From the minority shareholders' open letter, that seems to be their concern. Just as much insider trading, but somehow even more insidious.
The Sweet Baby death kiss once again.
At this point I’m willing to believe someone is actively trying to tank Ubisoft
Yasuke's position as a samurai, guaranteed by the Hirayama clan, is that of a lowest-level samurai.
It was not unusual for the lowest-level samurai in this period to be both a farmer and a samurai.
The Hirayama clan did not say that Yasuke was recognized as a person who wore luxurious armor and helmets and was respected like a samurai general or a daimyo.
When we think of lower-ranking samurai, we think of ashigaru, who are simply foot soldiers.
It is inconceivable that he had such a fortune to own and ride horses.
This sets in a period when people look at left handed samurai with scrutiny, and somehow people in the game are being and feel normal around a guy whose physically VERY different is weird
Samurai, even most low-ranked of all still a nobility. Asigaru literally means "barefooted", it is disdain term, all you say is a oxymoron.
As for Yasuke, he do not mention in any noble roster, so was not a nobility.
Sweet Baby inc is the reason this game is so mass disliked.
It's one of many. Wasn't even the main reason at first: formulaic/old gameplay loop, blatant disrespect of Japanese history, unable to take any kind of constructive criticism, etc. This is just icing on the cake.
west: this game sucks, Japan: this game sucks
SOMEHOW some people in Russian community: wow this game looks interesting
and then they ask why i lost fate in humanity
I take this as a SBI L.
I am putting 5$ into a piggy bank everytime SBI or associates take L's. I am at 130$ at this moment, having started in June. Let that sink in.
Are the five on the two every seven nights at 9 this is a j and a b that that refrigerator in
Imagine an Allied ship captain hitting a seamine and suggesting they ask a nearby U-boat for advice on avoiding any more.
Again, the fact that Ubisoft is likely going to end up in several lawsuits because of this is amazing. They really thought they could get away with it.
Hiring SBI to save your game is like drinking Cyanide to save yourself when you're dying from being bitten by a Black Widow spider
amazing the company just thought they could disrespect Japan so vigorously like that.
well, cyberpunk hired sweet baby inc so number two is screwed
Just when you thought that Ubisoft couldn't possibly do any worse damage to themselves in general and Shadows specifically, they go and prove that they not only can, but absolutely _will._
Remember when gaming companies just made good games instead of trying to constantly piss off the people who buy them
Ubisoft is no longer a "video games company" but instead they are now a Hate Group.
And having that "Assassins Creed Shadows" ad play in an advertising screen in Akihabara, Tokyo is like playing a footage of the Tank Man in an advertising screen in Beijing, Shanghai, or other Chinese cities.
So, they just picked up the shovel that dug them the hole they're in, and asked it, "Please save us.", to which it just starts digging further down. Ok then.
Imagine driving in the opposite lane, and when you see a truck a mile away, you step on the gas and the closer it gets, you freak out about getting in a crash, so you put a cinder block on the throttle. Change lanes? Never, you picked this lane after all.
I guess we really ARE going to see Ubisoft go under, what a time to be alive.
What a timeline! It's shitty, but you don't exchange it for any other.
I love that all these big AAA games are flopping so hopefully these corrupt studios will finally learn what not to do
You know what, I'm glad SBI is working with Ubisoft. This will be a double kill if/when this game fail, cause if Ubisoft dies they'll be taking SBI with them.
Watching these companies crash and burn after they hired a bunch of woke, incompetent, out of touch women is cathartic tbh.
Ubisoft relying on Sweet Baby Inc.!?!? It's like they want to go bankrupt!
*house is engulfed in an inferno*
Ubisoft: Let me just use this to put it out!!
*turns container on side, label is "gasoline"*
Ubisoft is currently shopping for a shiny casket they will be bought out. AC is a franchise that they squandered years ago.
300 likes for a Ubisoft trailer. Meanwhile, this Rev video, only 40 minutes after going up, is close to a 1000.
... I'm stuck wondering what the fuck does Animal Crossing and colonialism have to do with each other.
Asking SBI to save your failing game is like asking a pyromaniac to put out a fire with gasoline.
The funniest video about this was from DashBlue from a few days ago. They pointed a bunch of shit people didnt even seem to notice.
Why be insane by doing the exact same thing a second time expecting a different result when you can get another idiot to help you make the same bad decision twice simultaneously?
The Best part of this, whole nonsense. is that the consultant Ubisoft used, lists that they worked on Ubisoft Games that aren't named or noted. Now, I understand NDAs exist, but this literally sounds like "Hey, We got this Outside Consultant, who totally is an outside consultant and not someone who is on our pay roll to agree with us!" Like... Seriously... I'm pretty sure that there's a conflict of Interest in here.
Wow, it's almost like Ubisoft doesn't listen to fans
Sweet Baby is the harbinger of bad games
So rather than selling millions of copies to long-time customers, they're hoping to sell a few dozen to the ESG crowd that doesn't buy many things.
That explains a lot.
this game is so good that in the main cinematic gameplay trailer, the game's metaphorical "best foot forward", yasukes sword is glitching through the sheath, his horse is gliding around with bugged walking animation, platforms are floating in the air with no access point at all, stairs are not lined up with doorways making entry impossible, bullets are floating every time an NPC fires a rifle because there's a duplicate glitch that creates two bullets every time one is fired so one bullet flies toward the player and another floats in the air forever next to the spot the enemy NPC was firing from, doors are too short for the doorway and thus are floating a foot off the ground, a huge amount of blood forcefully spurts out of an NPC enemy's chest when Naoe just lightly pushes him down with her bare hands, and characters phase through each other constantly during both gameplay and cut scenes. nothing but the best AAAA quality for assassin's creed shadows.
Hashimoto was the guy who tried to appear more ‘professional’ in an interview about his consulting by wearing a kimono, right?
Imagine if Rockstar had hired a waiter as a ‘cultural consultant’ for Red Dead, and he showed up for a press interview dressed as a cowboy.
The thing that really annoys me about this "non-troversy" is just how adamant these people are pushing back against the criticism. Whatever happened to the days when someone can admit fault, promise to do better, and then move on (whether they actually improve is another matter, but not the point here). Instead, these people have exponentially doubled down on their stance, and the one thing I absolutely hate is the use of gaslighting and emotional manipulation to try and make the audience think they are crazy when the audience is the rational one in this argument. The amount of narcissism and contempt for the customer base is truly astounding, and one simple lesson you can take away from all this: never treat your customers like they are idiots. Is it any wonder why this game project has such negative PR?
That's the thing though; they think we are idiots.
ngl i feel like japan might ban ubisoft cause messing with a countrys history is a no no special japans
Once this game fails,
Ubisoft will finally be gone and all employees will be arrested.
if there was ever anything elon needs to remove from twitter is the ability to private your account for free make cowards have to pay for the feature to run and hide
Oh Sweet Baby Inc, the gift that keeps on giving… despite no one wanting what they give.
Next they will triple down and get Gillette, Bud Light and Disney as consultants
Always be suspicious of someone who uses terms like 'many' and 'appeared' without providing any solid numbers or examples
The fall of this game will be the nail on the coffin for Ubishit and it will be another win for the gamers like Concord.
You ever notice how sweet baby logo has a fan or portal on its logo? Its because you are literally blowing your money away if you use them..
I don't think it won't be that long until Ubisoft gets bought and absorbed by another company in order to avoid closing down
Hey rev did you see that concord was a worst flop then we thought…
They had a budget of 400 MILLION over twice then what we thought…
You know what they say, the road to Hell was paved by Sweet Baby Inc.
Saying 2024 has been a rough year for Ubisoft, is like saying 2024 has been a pretty rough year for P Diddy.
Ubisoft's downfall this year is wild, they somehow keep sinking lower when it doesn't seem possible.
I'm telling all my normie friends.
If they aren't convinced already, this will be the final nail in the coffin...
Sweet baby inc to ruin everything they touch. Who in their mind would pay 7 figures to fk their own game 😊
Sony, Ubisoft
@yunusgokcen174 Stupid idiots. We don't need this in games. Leave devs to be creative in their own way and make good games without all the B.S. And Ceo types need to shut up and not give in to sweet baby inc type crap and give devs the time to finish games and not rush shit.
Perhaps they have no money to hire any other game consultant, SBI has been blacklisted by several game corp/indies so logically they put lower price.
The amount of Japanese creating videos showing how angry they are at this BS cannot be hidden. They are furious, and have every right to be furious. This game has already failed before it releases.
I hope Ubi gets shut down to be honest, they have created nothing but crap since the early 2000's anyway.
The way they keep relying on sbi is like sbi are giving guaranteed results if they double down with sbi. Crazy.
The damage control is out of control 😂 (pun intended).
The assassin's creed shadows game is going to be the final nail in the coffin that finally topple the company with the way it looking at the moment.
PewDiePie made a video whose purpose is specifically to get dislikes as its goal. It's on 93% dislike ratio on Wikipedia.
AC Shadows tralier is at 97% dislike ratio.
They easily beat PewDiePie without even trying. 👏 👏 👏
As far as I'm concerned, ACS is an SBI joint.
Even I reject the moment there is bloat, no matter if SBI are involved.
They've been usin a consultant from SBI? Shit, no wonder shadows has been tankin
Just went ahead and decided to receive the SBI kiss of death. It's a bold strategy. I've also heard they didn't get the okay from the Oda clan to use their symbol, so just more blatant disrespect for Japanese people and their culture.
It's literally adding fuel to the fire.
It's like they're trying to make me regret paying 0.99 for the crew 2.
This is like holding a bucket of gasoline to fight the fire. = =
Ubisoft’s fumbles this year are actually impressive.
There's always someone thats pulling the strings
It's been tough being a quebecer these last weeks with Ubisoft acting like a bunch of clowns.
Do these investors live under rocks? One search in most socmed and you'd know that ac is failing 😂
Ubi is done when this comes out.
