My goal is just to have a community where people can go and see what new game news is out for the day and comment on it.

I have a quintuple-A bridge I’d like to sell this guy
Do you happen to have any insurances I could buy for the bridge?
Not yet, but I have a plan to release coverage in the future. If you put a deposit down now I’ll give it to you sometime I determine in the future
This has big J. Wellington Wimpy "I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today" vibes.
At a time when AAA often sucks so much, it sounds really out of touch to say your overpriced game is "quadruple-A".
Xfinity "10G" energy
He's a pretty out of touch ceo so it checks out
It sounds about as out of touch as their neurons.
Sucks that the idiots forcing these stupid ideas get buckets of money though.
I bet it’s just assassins creed.
Sail the seas, activate ice bergs to unlock the map, gather five million useless trinkets.
From what I read the game is pretty much a repurposed Black Flag naval gameplay.
I mean that is what it spun off from. It's been in development hell all the way from then.
I played a closed beta quite a while back and it’s pretty much this. Was all set to play the whole weekend but only made it like 2 hrs in before uninstalling. it feels like just fetch quests, and checking off boxes, and I didn’t find it fun at all.
It'd have to be pretty damn compelling to not just play black flag again instead
I play one game at a time until I beat it or decide it isn't worth playing. I'm currently playing Black Flag for the first time and am about 35 hours into it.
I'm still holding interest, but it's pretty damned repetitive and full of fetch quests and check boxes.
Fuck me, that is some quadruple-A-level bullshit from our man Yves. I played the closed beta and I am sorry to say that this game is going to tank, hard. Its gameplay loop is waaaay too simplistic to be making those grandiose claims.
Just like battery, the more A it has the smaller it is, but the price stay the same or much more expensive.
Is that the same shit company that was telling us to get used to not owning games? Why would I spend $70 to borrow something they probably won’t finish making before release?

So that you can hang around and wait for the talent in the community to fix it and make it at least closer to a game worth $70
You think Ubisoft games will have modding? Hahahaha no, no it will flop on launch and the live service elements will die within a year
Big 'Comcast 10g' vibes here.
Ubisoft is consistent with being on my blocked producers list on steam.
Wow it's like almost every day I learn about a new feature Steam has lol
Holy shit I didn't know you could do that.
Fuck yea! I've blocked Ubisoft, EA and a handful of other shoddy producers/their ilk. It's not worth even seeing their offerings these days.
Maybe it's how long it's been in development, maybe it's how many times that they've changed direction, or maybe it's just that Ubisoft just put so much garbage in their games, but I predict that this game is going to be a trainwreck.
I was intrigued when they first announced it, but now I'm just so fucking sick of Ubisoft and their bullshit that I'm now just curious to see just how much of a mess it turns out to be.
You mean when it was a game and not a shitty live service treadmill?
I'm going to keep eating the popcorn I got out for Suicide Squad.
Finished the campaign before the bucket, eh?
Oh, I don't intend to play either game. I just enjoy watching games that are bad for the industry crash and burn in the market.
oh shit we making shit up? ARMORED CORE 6 WAS SEPTUPPLED S.
Quadruple of $0 is how much they'll get from me.
All AAA games and AAA studios are garbage.
Long live the indie game developer
Just wait a year or two and then play the stuff people are still talking about. It's hilarious how often it's indy games.
I hate the term "Quadruple-A". The entire point of Triple-A was to be the biggest of the big. There's no cap on that size.
Sure it is, Yves. If any game would qualify as quadruple A it's the Black Flag spinoff that's been in development hell for years. Genuinely curious how long this game lasts, even if it does get good reviews and finds an audience. Feels like Ubisoft would have cancelled this ages ago if the government of Singapore hadn't been providing subsidies to help fund the project.
The 4th A is for "Assholes"
Doesn't the fourth A overflow and actually make it a 00F tier game?
Their AAA games are mid so I suspect their 'quadruple-A' games are also mid. Price 'em how you want, I'll pass anyway, thanks Yves.
There’s plenty of other comments ragging Ubisoft for their anti-consumer business practices so let me just point to those as a preamble and say “what they said”
… HOWEVER I remember someone on Youtube, maybe SirSwag, saying something years ago that rings true about Skull and Bones. For a big company, they’re taking notable risks by investing so heavily in unique multiplayer games. Basically every other big budget multiplayer game I’ve seen has been trying to compete with Call of Duty or Fortnite by being functionally the same thing with minor differences.
Splinter Cell: Blacklist, Rainbow Six Siege, For Honor, Shootmania Storm, Riders Republic, and Skull and Bones, are not like most other games that come before. Yes, Ubisoft is a massive corporation and fuck that noise, but as a consumer of video games I appreciate that they are at least putting a good amount of the money they trick people into spending into studios with designers and developers who have creative minds and they’re supporting that creativity. Games like For Honor and Rainbow Six Siege can’t come from indie teams with no funding.
I won't buy another Ubisoft game after the nft shit and them deleting old accounts with purchased games.
Cant remember the last "AAA" game i enjoyed.
Your not supposed to enjoy them, you pay so the shareholders get to enjoy them.
Quadruple the reasons not to buy it.
I was excited when they first showed this game.
Now I wish it had either been delayed again or outright cancelled. Not that they legally could have, but to release this and not admit that its a massive L is just sad at this point.
Im not looking down at Ubisoft anymore. Now I just feel pity. This is literally begging.
Doesn’t matter to me, I ain’t playing this shit.
Quadruple Ass
Leave it to Ubisoft to find new and inventive ways to fuck up. They really do lead the industry in making shitty decisions, setting a firm example for other companies in exactly what trends won't be popular. Bravo.
At this point I wonder if there are some internal politics that want this project to fail and be over. 70 price tag, live service but only on ubisoft platform, ignoring the most demanded features, etc.
It's like they are tired of a project that was a money black hole for years and they just want to pull the plug.
Aw man I was kinda looking forward to this but this reminds me it's Ubisoft. Which is a shame because I'm a sucker for their open world formula.
So you get an extra A for every 2 years of development, is that how it works?
