We don't "deserve the trash we get". Ubisoft has pissed away every bit of goodwill they ever had, and now they are actually surprised that they are underperforming? For years I returned to Ubisoft like a neglected spouse. I bought every Far Cry and every AC game for years and also the first Watch_Dogs. It was then that I realized that all of their open-world games have the same bones and they weren't going to change their ways. After buying Far Cry 6, which was for all intents and purposes, a re-skin of Far Cry 5 (with most of their budget probably spent hiring Giancarlo Esposito), I decided that I was not going to buy their games anymore. The new PoP, Avatar, and Star Wars games look cool, but I'm done giving Ubi my money. I just fucking know that we'll be climbing towers in Star Wars: Outlaw to unshroud the map.Everyone complains about Ubisoft only doing bloated open world garbage and then Ubisoft actually makes a game that’s different, and is awesome, and is well reviewed, and is not full price, and it bombs

Why on earth would they release it on the biggest digital game market out there? This is Ubisoft, making bad decisions and then complain about it is their forte.

Inside Ubisoft - From Low Morale To Internal Tensions
From Low Morale To Internal Tensions, let's take a look behind the curtain at Ubisoft, one of the world's biggest gaming companies.
I guess you, never played the Anno series, trackmania , rayman, for honor and all the other games that aren't a copy paste.
4X games aren't really for me. The Trackmania games are fun, as are the Trials games. When was the last time Ubi made a Rayman game, not counting the Rabbids spin-offs? 2013? Same applies to For Honor. It's 8 years old. I know that they've updated it regularly, but it isn't a game that I want to play for 8 years.
It is a great game. You can complain about the art direction, but the metroidvania elements are solid AF. However this should have been 29.99 max. For the record the MSRP in Europe is 49.99€, this is also the price on Amazon, while every other Nintendo first party e.g. Mario Wonder is 44€. The pricing is insane.
Ironically Ubisoft pulled out when Blizzard, Activision, Microsoft and EA went 100% for Steam. Such a dumb decision from a business point of view.
It's a French thing. That and it's a family owned company. Guess they didn't want a family feud and decided (wrongfully) not to do it.
Well, Fortnite is popular so it should have done well. It's a great game and better than most shit out there. Very polished and extremely fun.
This always was the reason too. People shit on Conviction and Blacklist and then Splinter Cell died, because purists were too slow to realize they made a fantastic, new version of stealth that was the best in the genre. Prince of Persia (08) bombed also, despite being one of the best entries in the series and a cool new take on the series.
This is one reason I didn't pick it up. I love games like this, but the art style is atrocious to me. With new games coming out everyday to grab gamers attention you have to stand out in all areas. The gameplay might be there, but I'm not forcing myself to buy into and play a game just because it's a critics darling. There are many games I don't end up playing because of art style or aesthetics and this is one of them.
Is one of the best metroidvania game in like 10 years… What are you talking about?
No? This game looks like shit. Why would any Prince of Persia fan want this? I've only ever played Prince of Persia: Sands of Time for about 15 minutes and I can tell you with 100% confidence that if I was an original fan of that game I wouldn't touch this with a 10 foot pole.Everyone complains about Ubisoft only doing bloated open world garbage and then Ubisoft actually makes a game that’s different, and is awesome, and is well reviewed, and is not full price, and it bombs

Not 2D metroidvanias from a company not named Nintendo.
So… A game deserve to die… Because is not on your favorite store?
It is ugly, but damn if it's not one of the best games I've played in years. It's a game game. Light on story and heavy on gameplay.
It's not just that it's not my "favorite store", it's the fact that I have to go out of my way to purchase things in a different ecosystem. I don't want to give money to Epic Games, so that one's out. And it's asinine that I have to start up a whole new account from scratch on Ubi's service just to buy their games.
Still not a good reason for celebrate that a really good game is failing…
Who's celebrating? I'm more indifferent than anything.
