A few months back, Ubisoft released a video for Watch Dogs that looked nowhere near as good as previous trailers, causing Creative Director Jonathan Morin to come out and say, “I see the game every day and I can tell you, this trailer is far from it.”
Top executives including games boss Sean Shoptaw have also been promoted…
Behind XDefiant's toxic work culture, crunch, delays, and a group of directors and managers internally referred to as 'The Boys Club'.
Man the industry just keeps on going with all this bs and to think this is ubisoft again remember what happened with that skull bones team same crap.

This game will be tossed out broken unplolished with a bloated budget trying to be cod but will fail sense ubi can get there shit in order. If i was me i would have gotten rid of this boys club asap there is alot looking for work out there.
Every industry has these issues
Some companies I’ve worked for were great and some were toxic as hell (UPS when I was a teenager was extremely toxic and I have heard it still is) It all starts at the top. They either hold people accountable , set standards and treat people with respect or the crap rolls downhill.
Skull and Bones surprises with second-highest player engagement in Ubisoft's history, marking an unexpected success story.
Funny how all the clickhate was trying to spin that it was "struggling" to reach these very numbers.
“Ubisoft announced that ‘Skull and Bones’ boasts over four hours of average daily playtime.”
So the few people playing it are spending a lot of time playing it. But there aren’t enough whales to feed this fleet. This game will die like so many other live service money grabs that came before it.
I've read that same thing. Ifbtruebits not really impressive. Also maybe I missed it but I didn't catch any numbers in the article. Lastly what I did read felt more like an advertisement as if the site mightve caught a couple dollars from the publisher.
People are saying it's around 850k across all platforms and free trials. To put it into perspective Helldivers 2 has around 360k 24hr peak on Steam and another 300k at least on PS5, and no free trials.
Most likely. I tried the demo on PS5 and it looks so blurry I was shocked, crappy graphics. I thought for a minute I was playing the wrong version (PS4) but then again most games on PS4 look a 1000x better than this not to mention it's a grinding galore. F that.
@EdgeyMan
Yea man, PS is doom now with these layoffs, watch the PS brand starts doing those same lame xbawx numbers from now on.;)
I wonder if Jonathan Morin really use the word "fucking" on the interview lol
Couldn't care less Ubisoft your multiplat games and most publishers/Devs multiplat games are not in any way a benchmark for any console and Bayonetta2 is technically above and beyond watchdogs easy extreme intense action even co-op at a rock solid 60 fps no screen tare Full HD 1080P NATIVE and beautiful graphics and elegant smooth character movements,and dont get me started on the amazing nextgen backdrops WOW please this time next year if your a 3rd party and you don't do exclusive games you will go bust trust me,Sega make huge bucks on exclusive nintendo games like Mario and Sonic ect Capcom on monster hunter main series games.....
Only time and devs working on actual games for the new consoles can vouch for the power of that console,and the games will show us what console is best end of.....where is the xbox1's Bayonetta2 experience,Titanfall will fail with COD MP being a sport these days.....
Why is it infamous again? :/
If the current gen version doesn't look that bad then SHOW IT. Ubisoft said over 2 months ago that they would be showing the current gen version "in the coming weeks". They still have yet to do so, and the game isn't far from release. I'm not preordering the game for my PS3 until I see exactly what it looks like. I've been burned by Ubisoft too many times before to fall for their shit. They don't exactly have the greatest history when it comes to being honest about their products.
