Ubisoft Connect is ASS

There is ZERO gameplay, technical, or creative reason Ubisoft Connect needs to exist for Black Flag (A 13 year old single player game)

"People search for things to be offended by”

A lot of reactions are genuine discomfort, disagreement about design choices or just responding to what they actually saw

“You won’t see it if you don’t interact with it”

you can’t fully avoid it because screenshots get reposted elsewhere and discourse spills across platforms

"nobody had a problem when Joel was protecting Ellie in The Last of Us or when Lee was protecting Clementine in The Walking Dead."

because those games came out BEFORE these creeps felt comfortable

Duolingo sucks. They have no right to use Alastor in their advertising, I'm frankly surprised Amazon hasnt issued a Cease&Desist. They also use ai instead of human translators, which has enshittified the app considerably. 🚮

They got pissed Dana called them out on their ai bs after being a long time shipper of the Duo bird and Hooty (toh), so they switched to shipping him with Alastor of all fictional characters.

What will happen when the supreme court throws out LGBTQ+ rights like they did with Row v. Wade. What happens when you have a database run by the government full of sensitive information.?

Age verification is ID verification. Age verification is privacy violation.

the House of Representatives wants to pass a bill for operating system age verification. Not to access porn, not to access the internet, to literally use a computer

This isn't about children, this isn't about anti-terrorism, this is about control

If the Epic Game Store actually was the best storefront, it wouldn't need to pay for exclusivity, the CEO wouldn't need to go out of his way to sue the competition for completely bogus reasons

he spent the last 6 years making the most hated storefront in the gaming ecosystem while actively ignoring consumer feedback. And then he posted "Let the best store win" completely unironically

"let the best store win", coming from the man who has spent literal years and millions upon millions of dollars trying to literally drive other stores out of the market because his store is objectively one of the worst on the market and is being stomped every single year by the competition

has no competition. That doesn't sound like the Epic Games Store. But also, Tim Sweeney is actively trying to sue the competition and drive the competition out of the market because he knows he can't beat it.

A monopoly, according to Tim Sweeney, is a company that makes profits from vast markups, That sounds like the Epic Game Store.

does a bad job., That sounds like the Epic Games Store.

Is hated by suppliers, That sounds like the Epic Games Store.

nobody can be normal about this game. Everyone is angry or being creepy about something

Every new game is culture war now thanks to the chuds who ruin everything

The found out the toddler is voiced by a black woman in the English dub and now they hate it and are insisting it’s a massive flop because it’s woke DEI slop lmao

Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced Doesn't Include DLC or Multiplayer It has been announced that Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced won't have multiplayer or DLC as a part of the game.

Multiplayer I can sort of get but why not bundle in Freedom Cry?

Or are the themes of freeing slaves from Europeans too political for these times?

Ubisoft is hiring people who will help them make AI slop Prompt Specialist job opening for Ubisoft Paris lists experience with the likes of GPT-4, Gemini, Claude, Gwen, SentenceBERT, Llama, Mistral, and more. A description of the role is as follows: By joining us in this role, you will become part of a multidisciplinary team (comprising data, programming, game and narrative design, animation, etc.), guided by a simple yet ambitious question: among all the possibilities offered by generative AI, which ones are truly interesting and fun for gameplay?

looks like I'm no longer interested in Black Flag Resynched

They are down to like 100 or so employees. Not nearly enough to make a modern AAA rpg. The talented writers are gone and they can only cost on nostalgia for the original trilogy. The game has basically no hope of being good.

if the next game fails, that's the end of bioware. nobody can save them. which is sad, because both mass effect and dragon age are really cool franchises. but that's what happens when you let a bunch of morally and creatively bankrupt execs manage these things

I am just waiting until the upcoming release so that EA can at last give Bioware the bullet of mercy. I wish they didn't have to suffer much. I wish they just end the studio's misery right now without more delays.

I believe it's very likely that Bioware is going to be shutdown after the upcoming release of the next Mass Effect game.

Bioware is not what we knew. Let's be honest with ourselves here. The old studio is gone.

2007 game us Assassin's Creed, STALKER, Bioshock, Mass Effect, Skate and Uncharted.....but only 2 made it past 4 games

Trump wanted to use Nukes in Iran but Dan Caine stopped him.....I'm expecting Dan Caine to be fired come tomorrow

if he thinks he’s dying, all bets are off.

I don’t know if that’s imminent, but he won’t hesitate to take the entire world with him if he thinks his own end is near.

Anything other than 100% trump glazing is deleted and locked, and the threads that are allowed to stay up never have many comments

For supposed fans of free speech and haters of Echo Chambers Trumpian republicans are apparently too fragile to discuss dissenting opinions from their own goddamn side

" I didn't vote for this war, I just wanted wokeness out of games" bull-fucking-shit

you were led to believe by Failed game devs and grifters who have NEVER been in game development that Women, Blacks and LGBT people were "Ruining gaming"

A lot of people still don’t know I work for Glitch now and just think I got really REALLY in to Murder Drones this year. I mean, I did, but for reasons.
