Ubisoft is fighting for social justice, as reported by the user on the games subreddit.

Just how low can we go with this insanity?

 

[The Bloody-Nine]

I'm in the percentage of people who won't buy your shitty game.

 

[nochance]

It's an interesting spin I think and makes sense - if the point is to blend in you need a diverse crowd.

 

[CitizenX]

'scuse me if im wrong Sandy, but if i selected males as a part of my revolution are they not considered a gender or is that term now cancelled?

 

[Teslerum]

Yes, I need a video game marketing piece to talk down to me and actively spread mistrust.

THATS what gets me to buy games.

 

[Kerotan]

Rated R for Retarded.

 

[brap]

The revolution is female

 

[Rikkori]

What in the actual fuck

 

[Jon Neu]

Just because there are two messages about gender that doesn't mean the game has an agenda.

 

[cormack12]

I find the taglines more cringey that offensive. Who the fuck let the intern caption those.

 

[Armorian]

WD was 7/10 game, WD2 maybe ~7.5/10. This looks like complete clusterfuck, and that was before all this woke bullshit.

 

[Radical Dreamer]

xDD

 

[Ellery]

Shameful hypocrisy and double standards on Ubisoft's end.

Ubisoft your games are already subpar and stuff like this makes you look like fools.

 

[Nico_D]

Oh god. Well, there went the last of my will to buy that game. Tbh, there wasn't much to begin with but now...

Why can't they just leave the politics be the stupid and shallow gaming and entertainment company they are?

 

[Exede]

Just because there are two messages about gender that doesn't mean the game has an agenda.

No true thing. But the: Revolution has no gender should've be applyed to the mostly female team aswell. Just, don't be surprised if the man trys ro be the leader, in comparison is suggesting an agenda.

 

[Werewolf Jones]

I mean the writing was on the wall with the second game. It's not really surprising.

 

[Barnabot]

The revolution is female

gender neutral you bigot.

it's said that professor oak is one of the main villains of this game.

Disgusting .

And they are still gonna sell enough for another 4 sequels of this shit.

 

[cormack12]

It's obvious this will now be set up to troll people and groups. People are gonna do shit and 'collect' certain NPCs.

Like all blonde and blue males - The Aryans
Blue hair, purple hair etc - The rainbows
Athletic, smart women - The honeys
All black people - BLM
All red caps - MAGA/Trumpsters

It might actually be quite funny to be fair, seeing what rules people use to segregate their members. Only monocle wearers for me.

Writing in ubisoft games has been shitty all over their brands for a while now.

 

[indigoSociety]

Well they just lost a sale . Wasnt that interested in the first place to be honest. Ruined the tone of this series imo. First game was a great start to the franchise and i know thats an unpopular opinion but i found it to be a very good game that was able to immerse me. Thought it could of got ramped up and built upon with that tone intact. Instead 2 was a hipster nightmare. And this looks the same.

 

[Dr.Morris79]

Well they just lost a sale . Wasnt that interested in the first place anyway to be honest.

So they didnt lose a sale then?

 

[M1chl]

Yo get the fuck outta here, this is worse than some non-binary bullshit. Fuck you UBISOFT. And by the way, you should just shut the fuck about gender and that sort of "important issues" when there is sexual harrasment everywhere in you fucking company. I long the day, when that manlet CEO steps down, start to bake Baguettes and maybe at that point Ubisoft starts to create good games.



Swap few words and you get the point....

 

[Ar¢tos]

Isn't that form of discrimination too?

 

[Kev Kev]

"Men = Bad" - Ubisoft

what a bunch of assholes

 

[Kokoloko85]

Was actually looking forward to this for my first Watch Dogs game. The gameplay mechanics looked interesting.
But after those last 2 pics, especially the last one.... No thanks Ubisoft

"There's more than 2 genders", male, female, and potato. Hard pass on this shit

 

[INC]

arent ubisoft known for being slightly rapey, they are french after all

 

[The_Observer]

First game's tone was spot on, second was hipster puke, as mentioned already and this looks similar. I was (am) looking forward to it because of London, but I don't want to support this evil agenda so will try to get a used copy.

 

[Carna]

Normally, I hate both left-wing sjws and right-wing sjws.

But the left-wing ones, are in bigger numbers and invading our fucking games.

 

[MrTroubleMaker]

 

[N0S]

Im not supporting this trash.

 

[anothertech]

Got Dammit

Skip that shit

 

[Ogbert]

Surprised, as Ubisoft usually steers clear of this sort of nonsense.

 

[TTOOLL]

Trash.

 

[Spaceman292]

So does this mean that they've stopped sheltering and promoting all of those sex pests that work for them?

 

[Woo-Fu]

I think all of you might be jumping to the wrong conclusion.

It could simply be that the main campaign has storylines specific to each gender so that you can't complete it without having both genders on your team. Which would mean Ubisoft is actually on your side in this fight.

 

[John Mullins]

I don't know what this is exactly, but I can tell it's total nonsense.

It'a an ARG that was mailed out to random people I believe that generated a unique trailer. You were able to select different people to be part of your group

If you selected too many males, you got nagged to include more women
If you selected too many women, you got told a man would try a mutiny anyway

 

[CrysisFreak]

Well that's one day one purchase cancelled, congratulations.

 

[Zok310]

Just dont fuck up FC6, ubisoft

It's way easier to jump to conclusions based on a couple of captions. Never forget, the alt right boys have a very fragile ego, they are proper snowflakes. The only game that can get away with "woke shit" is Cyberpunk, because reasons. That's it.

 

[Bartski]

Gotta balance out all the workplace molesting somehow

 

[Boss Mog]

I've said all along that they are marketing this game as "Antifa the Videogame" and I definitely won't be getting it because of that fact.

It's funny because Watch Dogs 1 took a lot of shit from people but in hindsight it was by far the best one, I enjoyed it on PC back when it came out. Jordi Chin was a great character and the series would've been better served had it continued Aiden's story.
