>>1059144 You're taking my breath away, anon.

My predictions >game releases >gets the typical anti-woke backlash and becomes the talking point of the month >casuals still play it and like it >probably gets good reviews? >will be a success, the hype usual articles about it peaking on the UK box charts or breaking some obscure sales record are written >probably still an internal disappointment when it sells 5-7 million instead some fucking absurd milestone of like 25 million >won't be anywhere near the earthshattering blockbuster Ubisoft needs to save the company >stock rallies a few weeks/months before Ubisoft goes back into their downward spiral AssCreed and Far Cry are the only games Ubisoft releases that consistently make money, despite all the controversy surrounding it, I expect Shadows will be the same. I do not expect Shadows to be the fairy god mother that waves a wand and solves all of Ubisoft's problems.

>>1059154 >probably gets good reviews? Oh this game will be shilled even harder than Veilguard, expect perfect 10s across the board. The journos will wear out the kneepads sucking off the BBC.

Quota hires, outsourcing & nigger worship remain ever-present cancers of this trash industry. Hope the commiefornia fires will purge some of it from the U.S. at least.

I really want ubisoft to be so desperate they actually hire japanese historians to revise all the elements of the game but because jap nationalists inherently go against everything ubishit stands for either 1 of 2 things happen: - Either execs tell the trannies to shut up and just do what the nips say, the game comes out and it's met with a lukewarm to mildly negative reception; - Or the trannies fight back against any changes the nips put forward (including removing the last fentanyl samurai) and the game never comes out.

>>1059154 Ass Creed already failed for Ubisoft once not too long ago (Mirage), Prince of Persia failed, last Far Cry disappointed Ubisoft as well. I think it will sell 1 to 2 million and that's still a complete disaster. If it sold more it'd be a solid enough number to present and calm down the investors with so Ubisoft wouldn't have delayed it before while returning the pre-order money, so I think you're far overestimating the numbers.

I have never played an AssCreed game in my life, is any of them actually fun? Maybe that pirate-themed one?

>>1059141 (OP) My hope is this puts Ubisoft in the ground. Permanently.

>>1059175 Mainly just 1, 2, and some of 4.

>>1059175 I haven't either but from all reports the pirate one is the best one among most people. Those who played and loved the original Ezio games might disagree with that. If I was going to play an Ass Creed game it would probably be the pirate one. Personally I looked into the setting and lore a little bit back when the first few games had come out and I thought it was retarded so I ignored it ever since. Every single thing I've heard about the series since has just confirmed that that initial decision was presciently brilliant.

>>1059177 >some of 4. What are other games where the vehicle section is incredibly fun but the game becomes dogshit the second you are forced to leave it?

Didn't we have a Ubisoft diversity hire give an absolutely scathing rant of how horrible it is to work with them?

They just know this will never sell, they just know that this is their only chance to not get bought by the Chinese and that they will fail. We're gonna laugh even harder once this comes out.

>>1059154 >>stock rallies a few weeks/months before Ubisoft goes back into their downward spiral And then they get another transfusion of american tax payer money and continue to produce this garbage for the coming years.

>>1059193 Wasn't that a QA tester and he wasn't all that negative? They were nice, but incompetent.

Oh no! They're going to miss their debut during Lack Of History Month! Think of the DEI funding they'll lose!

>>1059212 I hope they release exactly when something good actually drops and completely buries it.

>>1059215 That's what was happening with KCD2

>>1059216 About that... pic leaked. Some anons on cuckchan were saying it's fake but it looks really well faked if that's the case so I dunno, take it with a grain of salt I guess.

>>1059218 WE

>>1059193 >>1059201 He was part of a focus test along with other Caribbean niggers. Not only did they ignore his criticisms, they didn't bother fixing a bug he pointed out.

>>1059218 Model looks off

>>1059175 I've only played the first two, and honestly they're very generic action adventure games. AC1 especially is the same four missions over and over. 2 is better but it just made me want to play Sly Cooper.

>>1059220 WUZ

>>1059278 KANGZ

>>1059193 >>1059201 >>1059221 That would be me and I tried telling them how fucked things were.

>>1059296 AN SHIIIT

>>1059141 (OP) Since niggers are retarded, maybe Yasuke retarded the game.

>>1059218 >a nigger >lying Yes, and? Why is this out of character?

>>1059141 (OP) They're gonna add more niggers to the game

Something I just learned, they have delayed the game to March 20th, which happens to be the 30th anniversary of the Tokyo sarin gas terror attack. At this point, they're doing this on purpose, this isn't a series of unfortunate accidents. They are trying to seduce Tencent into buying them by saying they would drop this turd in front of the Japanese on this precise dare.

>>1059459 >seduce Tencent into buying them Honestly at this point I'd rather the Chinks to have them and be done with it.

>>1059430 I thought that was jews.

>>1059459 Does it matter? If gta 6 came out on 9/11 most people wouldn't care, although that game will be goty.

>>1059463 Nips are squirrely about things though.

>>1059460 I want them to DIE without Trudeau around anymore to bail them out with government gibs, not get a new sugar daddy so they can keep pouring garbage.

>>1059456 I want them to make every Japanese and Portuguese black, but make Yasuke white with blond hair and blue eyes.

>>1059218 Did the anons on cuckchan say what looks fake?

>>1059508 They were saying it was made by r/gamingcirlejerk and posting the pic with some weird photoshop filter over it that I didn't quite understand, but implied that the nog is not part of the original pic.

>>1059461 Niggers stole lying from jews. What, you thought they had a monopoly?

>>1059469 They made an entire Pokémon game about the 9/11 attacks, so I think they can handle it.

>>1059578 Yeah, but that was an American thing, so nips don't care. Nips making a game about the Tokyo sarin gas terror attack and releasing it on it's 30th anniversary is something they wouldn't do. There are reasons to believe that the original ending of Evanghelion had something to do with a gas attack, but because of what happened at that point in time, they had to change the ending fast.

EXCLUSIVE: Ubisoft Seemingly Prepping for Bankruptcy Ahead of Assassin’s Creed Shadows Release as Past Failures Spell Almost Certain Doom https://archive.ph/xMHAR >The end might be near for Ubisoft. The year has barely started, and it seems as though the former giant of the gaming industry is showing more signs of decline as it seemingly prepares for bankruptcy ahead of the release of Assassin’s Creed Shadows. In our previous article, we highlighted Ubisoft’s abysmal credit rating, rooted in troubling financial metrics such as a €1.4 billion net debt, plummeting market cap down over 85% in the past four years, and an unsustainable workforce of 18,666 employees costing an estimated €746.6 million annually. These indicators painted a bleak picture of a company teetering on the edge of financial ruin. >Now, on January 9, 2025, Ubisoft announced that it has appointed leading advisors to review and pursue various transformational strategic and capitalistic options to “extract the best value for stakeholders. What does this mean? On paper, it suggests Ubisoft has hired consultants to address the company’s strategic missteps from recent years. However, in practice, this move aligns more closely with preparations to sell off valuable assets such as intellectual properties like Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, Rainbow Six, streaming rights, or other goods, and possibly edge closer to bankruptcy. >This announcement comes on the heels of yet another delay for Assassin’s Creed Shadows, now pushed from February to March. Coupled with declining sales from Star Wars Outlaws and the cancellation of XDefiant, it seems Ubisoft’s financial woes are far worse than initially anticipated. Could this be the end for Ubisoft, not even one month into 2025? First, let’s examine why this move might signal Ubisoft conceding to bankruptcy or even preparing to be sold off entirely. >Back in 2012, when THQ filed for bankruptcy, the company made a similar move before its eventual collapse. Just like Ubisoft, THQ knew exactly what it was doing and for whom it was doing it. The initial step of appointing leading advisors to explore “transformational strategic options” is a standard procedure for any company on the verge of a merger or asset sale. However, in Ubisoft’s case, this announcement—just as it was for THQ—serves as a signal to investors that the company is following all legal and regulatory steps before implementing drastic changes that may benefit some stakeholders but are more likely to leave others at a loss. >Bankruptcy might indeed be imminent, as Ubisoft’s announcement aligns with patterns seen in other companies before they spiraled into bankruptcy and were taken over by courts. For example, THQ, Atari, and Midway Games all made similar moves before their eventual downfall. These steps often aim to maintain a semblance of control and to prepare stakeholders for the inevitable. >So, what is Ubisoft aiming for? Looking at its announcement and the strategy to cut €200 million in costs, it seems this may be nothing more than a red herring, distracting from what are likely the company’s final days. Much like THQ, Ubisoft’s planned asset sales and cost reductions might serve to prolong operations just long enough to make it appear more attractive to a potential buyer. However, the reality is that such a relatively small cut in the face of its ever-increasing debt will do little to change the course. Bankruptcy courts may already be preparing to step in and oversee Ubisoft’s descent into insolvency. >It’s far more probable that these leading advisors have been brought on to determine, as Ubisoft’s own announcement states, the “best” way to manage this situation. That might involve minimizing losses for major stakeholders while ensuring that executives walk away with generous severance packages. THQ’s bankruptcy followed a similar pattern, where top executives exited with substantial payouts despite the company’s collapse. The €200 million in cost reductions may, in reality, be a war chest to fund severance payouts during the impending bankruptcy. With over 18,000 employees still on Ubisoft’s books, unless massive layoffs are announced immediately, many could be entitled to severance before the company folds. Unfortunately, it’s far more likely that the majority of employees will be left with little, while executives walk away with their “golden parachutes.” >Another sign that this may indeed be the case is the further delay of Assassin’s Creed Shadows from February to March. Why is this relevant? It reveals a lack of confidence in the product. More worryingly, the announcement of this delay came just one day before the advisors’ appointment was made public. This suggests that pre-orders for Shadows were so low that Ubisoft already knew the game wouldn’t be able to save it from mounting financial debt. >In retrospect, based on the poor sales of Star Wars Outlaws and the recent cancellation of XDefiant, it’s estimated that Ubisoft would have needed Assassin’s Creed Shadows to generate at least €1 billion in sales. This level of revenue, achievable by only a handful of games in such a short timeframe, would have been necessary to keep them afloat long enough to secure additional credit and temporarily manage their liabilities. However, Ubisoft’s actions indicate that the numbers aren’t showing this potential. If there were no concerns about the pre-order numbers for Assassin’s Creed Shadows, this delay might not have occurred. Delaying a major release dents investor confidence and impacts stock prices—two things Ubisoft cannot afford to jeopardize right now. Yet, the delay was announced, further confirming that cracks are growing within the company and that it is preparing for an inevitable collapse. >In our last article, we estimated Ubisoft’s credit rating to be CCC—an abysmal rating indicating that bankruptcy is imminent unless drastic changes occur. These drastic changes could include layoffs, asset sales, game cancellations, and severe operational restructuring. However, Ubisoft seems to have taken its first steps toward accepting bankruptcy instead of implementing these changes, which might have given the company a fighting chance. Why is that? The answer likely lies in their crippling debt. With no feasible way to offset liabilities through the release of new products, Ubisoft has effectively trapped itself in a cycle of underperformance. They are unable to generate enough revenue to move from the red into the black. As a result, it seems their best course of action now is to prepare for the inevitable by stabilizing operations just long enough to ease the transition into bankruptcy proceedings. >But let’s explore whether Ubisoft could still save itself. If we assume Ubisoft is not actually preparing for bankruptcy—what are its options? A buyout or asset sale would likely be the next step, but even selling some of its assets wouldn’t cover the cost of its debt. As of now, Ubisoft’s entire valuation is estimated at around $1.6 billion. This means Ubisoft cannot expect to sell its entire Assassin’s Creed franchise for anything near $1.6 billion, as a potential buyer might instead purchase the entire company outright for the same price. Imagine this: a franchise that once earned billions is now valued at less than its peak earnings during the release of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, all due to Ubisoft’s financial chaos. Because of its massive debt, Ubisoft would likely have to sell its most valuable franchises, such as Assassin’s Creed, for a fraction of their worth. Selling assets is therefore not a viable option, as any other assets up for sale would be viewed by potential buyers as far less valuable than the price required to keep Ubisoft afloat. >In short, any attempt at asset sales would leave Ubisoft unable to fund the production of a game capable of pulling it out of the red. Its low stock price and poor valuation have effectively trapped the entire company. To illustrate, if a chicken lays valuable eggs and the farmer wants to sell the eggs for $30, but the chicken itself is valued at only $10 because of the farmer’s debt, a smart buyer would simply purchase the chicken. This is the dilemma Ubisoft faces, and Chinese company Tencent, an Ubisoft investor that may be poised to buyout the entire operation, undoubtedly understands this. Rumors of a Tencent buyout persist, but as we mentioned in our previous article, Tencent would benefit more from letting Ubisoft enter bankruptcy proceedings and acquiring its intellectual properties at auction without inheriting its debt. So, what other options does Ubisoft have? >Layoffs and restructuring could be considered, but it’s likely too late for that. With over 18,000 employees, a significant restructuring and layoff strategy would take at least one to two years to yield financial benefits. However, Ubisoft’s mounting debt and poor investment credit rating make it unlikely that they can secure the financial stability needed to implement such long-term strategies. In fact, layoffs and restructuring could harm investor confidence further, especially as Ubisoft currently has only one upcoming product, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, that might appeal to gamers—and even that title seems to lack the anticipated enthusiasm. How about a buyout? Could Tencent or another company purchase Ubisoft outright? At a valuation of $1.6 billion, Tencent could afford to buy the company. However, Tencent would also inherit 18,000 employees and Ubisoft’s debt, not to mention other obligations such as financial incentives tied to Skull & Bones with the Singaporean government or other undisclosed liabilities. >While Tencent could simply lay off employees post-acquisition, taking on such liabilities may outweigh the potential benefits. Tencent might prefer to wait for Ubisoft to enter bankruptcy proceedings, allowing them to bid for key franchises during an auction without incurring these additional costs. Of course, in such a scenario, Tencent may have to compete with other companies for these assets, but the risks and costs would be far lower than buying Ubisoft outright. As it stands, we estimate there’s a 60% chance that Ubisoft is proceeding with a bankruptcy strategy, a 30% chance of an acquisition or merger, and only a 10% chance of restructuring recovery without bankruptcy. Ubisoft seems to be sailing its last voyage this year, hitting an iceberg in January, sinking slowly through March, and potentially drowning entirely by June or July, when bankruptcy proceedings could reach their conclusion.

>>1059634 SO IT BEGINS RIP BOZO

>>1059463 Nips will shit themselves is anything lands on the number 4, they won't like something like this.

>>1059634 >That Park Place Not exactly an accurate or reliable source there anon

>>1059664 https://archive.md/BkJCT https://archive.md/uFJUb https://archive.md/Ej2hM https://archive.md/Sbmu9 https://archive.md/iRlVc

>>1059670 Now you see these are much better, though not all of them are about bankruptcy. I think Ubishit will get bought out before they'd get to the point of needing to restructure their debt, they own a lot of IP and have an absurd number of studios. They've had interested buyers before but they've always rejected them. They're such a huge company there's really only three groups that could reasonably afford them: Microsoft, Sony, and Tencent. Well, Nintendo could probably also afford them, but I wouldn't see them wanting to make a purchase like that. Or maybe more, Ubi has lost a staggering amount of their value. That opens up a lot of other potential buyers.

>>1059677 >Ubishit will get bought out I'll only believe that if they fire people in mass, which won't happen because they're tied to work laws in several EU and Asian countries. No company wants that mess with 20K employees and billions of debt. Just to put it in perspective, EA and Activision have around 10-15K people working for them. Remember when Discovery bought out Warner bros? Yeah, no company wants that liability, they'll be selling their assets soon.

>>1059652 t. desperate jew losing everything.

>>1059682 >they'll be selling their assets soon. Tell them I can offer $300 for the AssCreed license. If they do have some obscure license for that price, I'd honestly buy it lmao

Too bad The Crew won't any longer be a good legal bargaining chip for Stop Killing Games if Ubishit does go down.

>>1059692 Plenty of other fish in the sea, if you ask me. Can we play Darkspore legally now?

>>1059634 Similar to Concord, it takes years for bad business decisions to finally have consequences but when it eventually does happen... Ah, the implosion can keep you warm for weeks.

>>1059700 Concord was Firewalker's first game and they imploded almost immediately, but I think I understand what you mean? Sony was investing heavily into GaaS shit and it backfired very, very hard. Now they have their worst-selling PlayStation console with an almost non-existent library, when they could have spent the time and resources on fleshing out their catalog.

>>1059690 I just want their grubby hands off Rayman, Rainbow Six, Ghost Recon and World in Conflict.

>>1059698 The IPs will be auctioned off to other companies or studios.

>>1059690 >>1059707 >>1059708 Ubisoft is fucked because none of its properties are worth continuing except Just Dance (which is practically turn key as an IP) plus maybe the Tom Clancy video game license (which I would not be surprised has contract details making it non-transferable and revert back to the estate under certain conditions like bankruptcy or failure to produce a new entry in X years) and Far Cry (take it back to basics, cut the bloat and retarded politics of the last one and you could get people to buy something like Far Cry: The Wild West or Far Cry: Thinly-Veiled-Yugoslav Wars without stupidly high marketing or budget). Plenty of back catalog you can sell for a small but near totally passive income, but their big IPs have either become such convoluted clusterfucks nobody really cares about the connecting plot anymore (AssCreed. The last time anyone cared was because vikings were the in thing when Valhalla launched, and before that the ship combat being surprisingly decent. Nobody gives a fuck about the assassin v. Templar or modern day stuff), are so generic you can make your own entry into the genre without the cost and dead weight of Ubisoft's IPs (why do you need the Watch Dogs or Driver IP to make a GTA clone? Why do you need the The Crew IP to make a racing game? They don't bring anything to the table), or are so has been new games would just scare people more than hype them if anything (Rayman, Beyond Good and Evil. Might and Magic could get some Russian oligarchs in a bidding war of double digit millions because there's plenty of obsessive Heroes of fans there, but you can't sell to those people anymore so that's out)

>>1059710 Blood Dragon 2 would save the company if good.

>>1059710 I simply meant that there will be a new IP owner to litigate infractions, but piracy is hardly enforced against anyway.

>>1059634 The future they chose. >>1059700 It does feel good watching them finally burn. >>1059710 Ubishit had so many potential ways to make decent money and they chose to ignore or mismanage all of them.

>>1059712 >Ubishit had so many potential ways to make decent money and they chose to ignore or mismanage all of them. Yeah, decent money, not "1.4 billion in a few months".

>>1059714 Almost seems purposefully set at that level to ensure they sink and someone else buys them off at low cost and lays off 30-40% of staff.

>>1059710 >Ubisoft is fucked because none of its properties are worth continuing Ubisoft is a European company, so majority of the IPs (That they didn't buy from another company) are for series that never premired in American nor Asia. The most "recent" of those IPs to get a rival was Zombi WAY back in 2012. >why do you need the Watch Dogs or Driver IP to make a GTA clone? Watch_Dogs is more than a GTA clone, and it's exactly because of the game trying to be a "GTA clone" in execution that the title mostly suffers. The best moments in WD are the actual investigations and stealthing. In some ways, it actually continues that original "open-world stealth" aspects the first AssCreed had, and that they then proceeded to demphasizes in the following games because journalists "people" found the idea of actually learning about the person you were going to kill to be a rather "boring" concept. And to be quite honest, it actually is rather boring in the way the game executes the process. Rather than leave the player to find out clues and investigate the target for themselves, you run around a map completing objectives until you're finally "granted" the chance to kill your target. The game would have really benefit had they never started the now infamous "Ubisoft open-world sandbox", and/or given the player the ability to decide if they kill their targets or let them live based on what the investigation turns up and see how it effects the story.

>>1059720 More like the western financing web is so fucked that execs have lived through 60 years of incestuous growth - investment - buyout stock loop that have lost any ability to comprehend non-exponential growth. The entire business model of large corporations is short term profit and they bloat their companies to show the big numbers go up whiles the company rots at the roots. I image there is gonna a huge tech industry crash in the coming decade because all talent has been chased out and has been replaced with poo drones. So when push comes to shove they will suddenly realized that all they have been doing for all these years is shuffled money and don't have anything tangible thing to show.

>>1059711 Nothing will ever save ubishit.

>>1059459 >>1059469 >>1059582 I don't think this date, or anniversary, has any particular impact on the release of games in Japan.

>>1060277 In this case it's okay when Japan does it, because they aren't shitting on and (((deconstructing))) Japanese culture and history in the name of pushing (((diversity))).

>>1059175 I played a bit of 1, 2, 3, and Black Flag. First three got repetitive fast. I finished the 1st one, and dropped off about half way from the other two. Black Flag's Pirate gameplay keeps things fresh. Pirate part of the game is more fun than the assassins nonsense but walking around cities is a decent enough break from sailing once in a while. Locations are more distinct too, since they are ports and colonial settlements of different powers - each with its own coat of point and twist. Black Flag has more effort put into it too compared to other ones maybe except for the 2nd one. There are little neat things in it, like sailors singing shantys when on the sea. 4th game dropped the dull Desmond and the templars plot and that helps too. Story is alright and self-contained. Some people suck off the 2nd game and Ezio but that was basically the 1st game but more refined gameplay and dumbed down story. 1st game is better story wise because it was more minimalist, left some things to imagination, and implied deeper themes. 2nd game and other titles with Ezio as the protagonist are shallow >>1059459 Almost every time Ubisoft makes an announcement it's stepping into something that upsets Japanese. It's as if there is a plant within the company tasked with making the game as difficult to market as possible. >>1059634 Beyond God and Evil 2 is definitely not happening and it's probably for the best. It will be interesting to see who ends up with rights to Assassin's Creed if Ubisoft's properties get auctioned. Is there anyone who could outbid Sony, Microsoft, and Tencent? >>1059756 It's part this, part Ubisoft making dumb decisions.

>>1060277 Yeah but they also did the half-tori gate thing and Yasuke's sword just being Zoro's from one piece, the wrong Japanese. It's simply too many fuckups so they no longer get the benefit of the doubt.

>>1060469 >Beyond God and Evil 2 is definitely not happening and it's probably for the best. That's a shame because it the character creator looked really neat. But you're right it's probably for the best.

>>1060273 Hilarious if true.

>>1060469 >Is there anyone who could outbid Sony, Microsoft, and Tencent? Nintendo has so much cash on hand that it is obscene. They could go through 10 Wii U console cycles and still have enough left over for one more try. Whether Nintendo would bother to buy anything is the real issue.

>>1060500 >Whether Nintendo would bother to buy anything is the real issue. I think they'd at least try to get Rabids, if only to have full ownership of the Mario and Rabids games. They wouldn't get into a bidding war for them, but they'd submit an offer.

>>1060503 Yeah that's a good point. I'd forgotten about those games. They were actually fun but the rabbids were so annoying I just couldn't put up with it.

>>1060503 >>1060504 The second game did some things I find acceptable at least.

>>1060503 >>1060504 >>1060510 >>1060517 Wait a second, wouldn't Nintendo have to buy the Rayman IP since the Rabids are a part of that "universe"?

>>1060273 I don't want Domino's to deliver me niggers on time

>>1060523 What if Domino's deliver niggers to the local jail on time?

>>1060540 Dominoes shouldn't even be delivering niggers, leave that to KFC. They should be retooling their ovens for jew pizza.

>>1060540 Domino's should just continue to build roads, so that if they ever go bankrupt, people will start asking "Who will build the roads now?"

Ubishart could save the company and still push the message they want if they really cared about it. >New Far Cry villain putting jews in ovens. Guy's evil, gotta stop him bro. >Asscreed you've got spanish conquistadors deliberately exposing the shoah to smallpox or strapping gunpowder barrels to them and sending them toward the aztecs and it's hurting profits for the ((merchants)) of Venice. Be a good guy, a good shabbat guy and stop them won't you? Then >Watch Dogs right, you've got Iranians, Hungarians, Blyats all doing stazi shit, putting shekel bearers on literal death roller coasters, but also calling the Goldbergs a bunch of liars and smuggling illicit proof of their lies through date harvesting plants located in places near the Levant You get to fight both the goons and the enemies of the happy merchants, who frankly always go harder and have more interesting characters than the friends of the merchants themselves. Also you push the message that whoever are my enemies are the ones who oppose or undermine God's chosen

Get this, Gulag tried censoring backlash towards the game too.

>>1066240 Some people won't learn until they're literally gunned down and tossed into a pit by the chinks

>>1066240 >>1066243 >They are literally an arm of the CCP anon "Communism is when niggers in ubislop" t. Garl Margz

>>1066464 Anon every company in China is required by law to have overseers from the CCP as part of their company. EVERY Chinese corporation is an arm of the CCP.

>>1066472 Reminds me of Soviet Russia and the KGB.

>>1066472 >>1066477 Gee, it's almost like each and every one of these governments is trying to enforce the same totalizing ideology across every facet of society. But, no, that's just crazy talk.

>>1066477 >Reminds me of Soviet Russia and the KGB. They're commies, anon. Did you think they'd be different from the other commies?

>>1066488 Guess we better pass more antisemitism laws to make it punishable by death if you notice what's happening around you.

>>1066559 The problem isn't the Kikes, as both the USSR and West Taiwan have laws outlawing Judaism and have outright expunged the Kikes.

>>1066590 Communism was made by kikes. As long as you are a commie you are also a kike.

>>1066591 A self hating kike that absolutely despised jews to the point he acts more like /pol/fag then an average modern commie.

>>1066699 >A self hating kike that absolutely despised jews So jews then?

>>1066721 Yeah

>>1066590 If you think anyone is going to believe your absolute bullshit, you have another thing coming. The first law passed in the USSR was the death penalty for antisemitism. The only non-chinks allowed to be members of the Inner Party in China are jews, because jews directly financed the fucking revolution. Sit the fuck down and shut the fuck up, you useless yid. We're wise to your shit. Zero fucking effort, I swear.

they took down a nip's video for racism kek

>>1065763 >Johnny Somali I knew this game was gonna tank regardless but that dude just killed Ubisoft by just being annoying on a train.

The Japanese twitter claims that while you can destroy important shrine objects in the game, you can't destroy crosses in churches on other games set in the west. Also there seems to be no penalty for killing innocents in the game while you'd get a penalty in other games. Lastly you can't harm Portuguese in the game. https://x.com/r230614_shin/status/1885501972478124477 https://x.com/Chief_MF/status/1885177142209896466 Is this true though, I haven't played the games after 2.

Anyone have any webms of Yasuke batting the head off of japanese women?

>>1066961 >Lastly you can't harm Portuguese in the game. I guess Ubisoft doesn't want to display black on black violence in their games.

>>1066961 OK yeah this isn't incompetence at this point. I think they're definitely pulling a Springtime for Hitler.

>>1066961 >Lastly you can't harm Portuguese in the game Yasuke knows his true master is the MED BVLL.

I've not been overly paying attention to this because >Asscreed >Ubishit But what the fuck is up with Yasuke's armor? His kanuto looks like it's crest is some weird hybrid of Muneshige's , Nagamasa's, and Honda's. And it the wrong kind of helm too. That's a great helm. They really didn't use those on the battlefield in the Sengoku. Maybe a clan leader or general might wear them in camp or something but they were relic status by that point. Or maybe it looks like a weird hybrid kabuto. There's something about the rest of his armor that doesn't look quite right either but I can't place what exactly.

>>1066973 >There's something about the rest of his armor that doesn't look quite right either but I can't place what exactly. There's a monkey inside it.

Mismanagement, genuine hatred for Japanese culture (remember during the Persona 5 vanilla localization non controversy Ubisoft devs were among those trying real hard to put down the Japanese games industry) and possibly intentional sabotage of the company to make it easier for the chinks to gain control.

So the art book for AssCreed Niggers leaked and it has a Were/Was character in it: https://exhentai.org/g/3216773/171ad4c27e/ https://pixeldrain.com/u/JQCSYBkH Just for reference, the character having a "deep reverence for poetry, art, and nature" is completely at odds with being a tranny for several reasons. On the one hand, Japan was very stringent about how the traditional arts were practiced for each sex prior to the Edo period. For men, to be considered a "cultured" person, you were required to read and write in traditional Chinese and express an utmost adoration for China in your writings. Women didn't have this restriction placed upon them, and so they tended to write almost exlusively in Japanese. This resulted in a stark contrast where the men would talk about a country they never saw (To the point that almost all Japanese peotry was almost the same) while the women would talk about their petty, simple, and boring lives as maidens of the court (Which is why The Tale of Genji is so revered). Now there were instances of men writing works in Japanese, however these men were required to right those works as if they were from the "female perspective" because it was considered "low form" for proper work by a male author to be written in Japanese. In addition to these contrasts of artistic development before the Edo period, you also have the developments during it. Where Japan became extremely stringent in returning to it's "Chinese roots" of Confucianism, where man and women had exclusive roles, responsibilities, and attitudes. There were "allocations" for things like pubic crossdressing as in the case of the onnagata (Later during the period), but those were theatre performers acting out their craft and were still expected in all other instances to fulfil their duties as men when not in the public eye. That's not to mention, repeating as I just said, that there were strict "rules" as to what you could carry out in each craft. Poetry had to constantly be timeless, puppet drama were constantly dynamic, Nou was all about subtly, etc. There were rules that each art form had to adhere, and failing to do so branded that creator as a "failure" (At worst) or ecclectic (At best). To put it simply, the existence of a tranny in Adzuchi-Momoyama era Japan does not work, And if you want to see what a "true" rebel" of that era was, then look at Matsunaga Teitoku, the creator of the haiku, who even at first dismissed his artistic contribution as nothing more than bouts of frustrated witticisms for realizing that he could never be a "true" traditional Japanese poet.

>>1067598 >pubic crossdressing The mind does wander.

>>1067598 You're describing the heian period. I'm not sure what the norms were during the edo period.

>>1067146 >remember during the Persona 5 vanilla localization non controversy Ubisoft devs were among those trying real hard to put down the Japanese games industry Is it about the Ryuji getting picked up by cross dressers? Or something else.

Apparently, they even fucked up with the French localization by giving some jewtuber a tertiary role and poor directions for the VA. Made waves among the Frogs and the dude had to make an apology/context video about it. Quick rundown >French jewtuber named Louis-San, who does videos about Japan and its culture, was asked to lend his voice for a character named Tokubei >Guy isn't a voice actor at all, so that's pretty much e-celeb hiring from Ubisoft for that quick buck (guy fucking did it for free, on top of it) >Jewtuber and the director who assisted him could only use the English VA as a basis, who sounded somewhat goofy, no images or video for context >Both jewtuber and the director concluded that he had to stick with roughly the same level and roll with it >The result doesn't match the scene at all as a result, Jewtuber sounds off the fucking wall like he was part of the cast for the infamous French dub of Hokuto no Ken >Everyone laughed at the "performance" while the jewtuber was absolutely horrified at the result >Jewtuber had to make a video basically ripping through his acting and adding "context" and BTS footage to control the damage It's pretty much Ubisoft just hiring some dude because he makes videos about Japan, only to fuck up his 15 minutes of fame and turning it into 15 minutes of shame. At this point, all of these fuckups from Ubisoft are on purpose.

>>1067625 C'est d'autant plus drôle qu'Ubisoft est FRANÇAIS ! E-celebs. Ils ne respectent pas le Japon, ils ne se respectent même pas eux-mêmes. <boit du sperme américain

>>1067671 Qui?

>>1067675 I don't mean me, I meant Ubisoft

>>1067671 >C'est d'autant plus drôle qu'Ubisoft est FRANÇAIS ! Can we really call them French at this point? Most of their high profile releases are from Quebec and BGE2 is (thankfully) nowhere to be seen.

>>1067600 >You're describing the heian period. I'm not sure what the norms were during the edo period. Shadows takes place in 1578. In the 1450's, 130 years earlier during the preceding Muromachi era, Ikkyuu eviscerated condisciple Yoso Soi for daring to translate Zen commandments into Japanese.

I'm seeing some shilling on X, I think there is a new promo video with some cosplay

The internet historian video saying it should have just been yasuke as a samurai in africa or the game just being nogs in japan was funny.

>>1068801 A weaboo African crusading around Africa with home built samurai weapons and armor would have been a far better story and more enjoyable game than what this shit will be.

>>1068801 >>1068875 >african learns the way of the samurai >goes back home to fight criminals/warlords I'd play it

>>1068875 >>1068917 I heard the movie is actually good.

>>1068801 I haven't seen that video but I was thinking something along that. Instead of Ubisoft trying to gaslight people into saying "we're making this as faithful as possible," if they made some over the top KANGZ shit with platoons of nignog samurais in hotep outfits it might have at least been funny.

>>1068933 >Ubisoft trying to gaslight people into saying "we're making this as faithful as possible, That's Asscreed in a nutsack. >"We're making this historically correct only were also not because bash the fash and also all the bad people we hate throughout history were Templars and the good people were Assassins and they were also marxists who supported gay rights." The entire series has always been a bit of a shitshow and it's only gotten worse and less subtle over time.

>>1068933 I kind of get the "this guy existed, what if his stats were buffed and a good goy" angle, I haven't played any of their games but it seems to be what every game does. Things like watermelons and cherry blossoms happening at the same time are incompetence though. The originals didn't seem good so I never felt like playing their world tour. The brand actively hurt any interest I would have had for the boat or viking ones.

>>1069293 The main issue with that is AC has never let you play as a historical character before. They've always been secondary characters you meet. The reason they broke this rule is obvious: they wanted you to play as a nigger blacking Japan and needed an excuse to let that happen so they cracked open their history books for the one nigger they could find. In the old days Yasuke would have been someone your character would have met rather than someone you played as. But that wasn't good enough for current year.

>>1068959 Well yeah, but the extent of the sham this time is an order of magnitude stupider. Even when they got caught on things before it's been like "well we are making a video game and taking creative liberties, and of course we have fantasy/sci-fi elements" even if it was pozzed, this time they just went for fucking months saying "WE ARE MAKING THE MOST AUTHENTIC JAPANESE EXPERIENCE EVER" basically inviting people to nitpick the fuck out of it. Like I am sure if you go into any other recent game about Japan you can point out inconsistency in the architecture or plants but they drafted their own terms and immediately fumbled, literally just because they want to lie about this nigger so hard that he might magically become a real samurai.

>>1068875 I do enjoy seeing people using Nioh's Yasuke as a "gotcha" when talking about Shadows and being historically accurate when Nioh is the furthest thing from historically accurate and Team Ninja were never out here saying they were consulting "historians" and having wikipedia pages falsified to push this house pet as something more than he was.

>>1068875 The premise sounds similar to that Samurai western game I once saw. I'd play it like crazy.

>>1068875 >>1069352 If they wanted to use a Japanese game as a "gotcha" for including Yasuke, they could have pointed to Samurai Warriors 5. Though I'm not quite sure if it's proving a point of how insignificant and forgotten of a person he was historically since it took the series 16 games (Including the XL expansion packs) across 17 years before he even appeared. >>1068917 >>1069358 It's also sort of the premise for Red Steel 2, but the Kutsagari is a white guy in that game. And it's a Ubisoft title without any niggers.

>>1068801 What pisses me off about this shit is that none of the coward developers will set their fucking game in Africa instead of shoving niggers everywhere else. Then again it would still be butchered and filled with West Coast American/Canadian mixed race goblinoids.

>>1069366 >What pisses me off about this shit is that none of the coward developers will set their fucking game in Africa What about Jamacia? Or Haiti?

>>1069368 Closest thing I think was the mediocre DLC for Asscreed 4, and it's always the same shit. >Muh whitey >Muh slavery

>>1066973 Is it really that surprising that nigga stole pieces of his armor from all around the place?

>>1069352 Well Yasuke in Nioh specifically says in his "spirit division" monologue that Nobunaga had promised to make him a samurai but didn't have a chance to do so before his death so it never claimed that he was something that he wasn't. Also Nioh has you fighting demons in samurai pokemon stand battles so trying to compare Asscum and Nioh is dumb as shit.

>>1069352 >>1069364 >>1069473 It's interesting that in these games, Ranmaru is either barely present or not present at all so I'm under the assumption that KT got mad with all the Nobunaga buttfucking Ranmaru content throughout the years and replaced him with Yasuke as the loyal retainer.

OUR GREAT NATIONAL NIGHTMARE IS OVER Ubisoft capitulates, tries to beg for money by saying and I quote "you don't have to play as le niggur hon-hon"

>>1072574 I just hope this shit helps bury this retarded myth so no one else tries to put niggers in japanese related media again. >B-BUTH IF DONE RIGHT No, i don't want niggers in my entertainment. If you have niggers you're already telling me you don't care about making an aesthetically pleasing experience.

>>1072574 >they can skip playing as black samurai I can do better, skip buying or even pirating the whole game.

>>1072574 Great, now the people can shit on the game on it's own merits, without anyone having to bring up the racism card. Bravo Ubisoft!

>>1072574 It's still gonna be garbage and I'm looking forward to it pulling a Veilguard.

>>1072574 It's too late, they got outcompeted.

>>1072577 The only darkies I want in my Nip entertainment are Okinawans. >>1072577 >If you have niggers you're already telling me you don't care about making an aesthetically pleasing experience. To be fair though I've seen some cute niggerlolis when made by the right artist. Mostly from fan artists and OCs but still.

>>1072594 Dark skinnned only looks good in anime (like dark elves for instance), because they look like white people with tans and they lack the usual nigger features such as a big nose and huge lips. Also, they don't act like niggers in anime. They're just white people with a tan.

>>1072592 The nips need to do more crappy unity shitpost games

>>1068920 >by Jim Jarmusch huh, gonna give it a try Deadman was 3deep5me, but I liked Broken Flowers (Bill Murray is turbo sad)

>>1072592 Is this Team Sneed with a new name? >HistoryAccurateDevelopers I'm like 90% sure it is Hopefully there's some KC2 shit thrown in for some laughs as well. >>1072577 I don't know, I wouldn't mind games set in Africa, but you never get any of those anymore because Amerishitter press will have a field day calling the game racist for views and clicks. So lets shove niggers everywhere for investment funds and government grants!

>>1072577 You can do it correctly though, Like if you want niggers in your game just set it in a place that has niggers.

>>1072617 >Just have a racially ambiguous sexy black female dressed in either tight jeans or skimpy tribal costumes shooting at infected niggers in africa with his big white cock sidekick bro This is not 2008 any more, bro.

>>1072617 >tfw no fun Abbo game like Turok with boomerangs and giant lizards >tfw no Africa Souls >tfw no game where you play as a bare-assed Polynesian brown loli going on fun island adventures <naw man here's the 100th race swapped character or the 30th ugly man faced big fro'd negress with a bad attitude <act now and we'll throw in another Niggerai just for free!

>>1072620 Fuck you for reminding me. I didn't even like 2008 but it was so much better than now. >>1072629 Turok is fucking sick, I am totally up for any turok clone.

>>1072615 >I don't know, I wouldn't mind games set in Africa, but you never get any of those anymore because Amerishitter press will have a field day calling the game racist for views and clicks. Seriously, how cool would a hunter/gatherer game set in West Africa be? Imagine doing actual bushcraft and survival shit in the Congo while escaping from Benin slavers with Enfield rifles. You could get all Rambo with the traps and hunt wild elephants. You could sign on to be a guide for some dumbasss British noble who wants to have a safari and decide whether or not a lion eats him. I would play the fuck out of that.

What's this I hear about spoilers for the game already being leaked? Anything good, yet?

>>1074036 It has amazing bamboo slashing technology

>>1074044 I bet Metal Gear Rising is still better.

>>1069366 The problem is african history would just be apartheid or egypt, maybe hebrews, sumeria, and mesopotamia.

>>1074049 Of course it is, it was made by Platinum Game in their prime.

Some posts about copies of the game leaking early, provided by our friends over on Sleepy/v/. Here is what we have thus far: >Assassin’s Creed Shadows is already being leaked and streamed online a month before release https://archive.ph/UOq3O <t’s not immediately clear how the copies were acquired so early or how many are currently available, but X user @DannyStevens__, who claimed to have bought the game on Facebook Marketplace, posted photos of its box and installation screen, followed by photos and videos of the game playing. These have since been removed, but not before they were saved and reposted online. <TheGamer also spotted a now-removed listing on US auction site Mercari which showed the seller holding multiple copies of the game in their hands. Each copy sold for $100. <Some of those acquiring copies of the game have started sharing its contents online. VGC has already seen two Twitch streams showing the game, one of which is still available as an archive recording at the time of writing.

>>1074092 >pander to niggers to lie about them being humans >niggers in real life only manage to prove that they are indeed, nigger. Thieves by nature, and with inferior genes who make them behave like monkeys I love when real life and nature prove libtards wrong

>>1074118 Why do these negroes lust so much after an inferior hwite product when the slick, black PSTriple exists?

>>1074118 Why is their first instinct to run away with it.

>>1074233 >Time does not exist to the nigger, there is only the present, the now. A cop yells, "do not run I will [in the future] shoot!" This phrase is meaningless to the nigger. In the nigger's mind he has two choices: be detained by the cops, or run and be free. That the cop will start shooting 5 seconds into the future is incomprehensible to the nigger. Niggers are living in a science fiction parallel universe where there is no continuity with themselves 15-seconds into the future. As a White man you think you are still you 15-seconds in the future, not so to the nigger. The nigger sees no relation to himself 15-seconds in the future, it is a completely different person. Their interests are unrelated if not opposed. >Once you understand that a nigger cares as much about himself 15-seconds into the future as you do about some random nigger, all of a sudden all a nigger's decisions makes sense. Why go into obscene amounts of debt for some chrome rims? Some other random nigger will have to pay it back instead of you. Why rape some random White girl? Some other random nigger will go to jail not you. Etc. Niggers are literally free of all consequences for their actions as they've broken the cause effect chain through nigger magic. >Now you can also appreciate the injustice of niggers being shot or put in jail. If a nigger shot at a cop 15-seconds ago, that was a completely different random nigger to the nigger. The nigger getting shot was just living his life (in an alternate universe where you forever live in one moment) and is now being shot for literally no reason. >Black mamas have been trying to explain this to thick White people for years with the shorthand 'He dindu nuffin'. These obese negresses are trying to explain that, while to you it appears that her nigger son committed some horrific act of violence, in fact that was actually a completely different nigger in a parallel universe. Niggers only exist in the moment, and in the moment the negress is speaking (the only moment she has ever known), her nigger son literally has not done anything wrong. >Being a nigger is like reliving Groundhog Day over forever, but in 15-second clips. The next time you interact with a nigger or goldfish remember that."

>>1080845 It's supposed to not instantly expose itself as text to speech because they were too lazy to record dialogue.

>>1080855 If there are multiple-instances of this monotone dialogue then I would be inclined to believe you, otherwise it could also be a case of "exec's daughter wanted to do VA work in a AAA game, but she is extremely shit at it, so they gave her a few lines for some random NPC". The VA work of Deus Ex 1 would be considered to have been done with Text to Speech nowadays.

Shame we can't post pngs now. Go to town /v/

>>1080869 They turned Yasuke into Yah-suck-it.

>>1080901 >>1080902 hopefully this game and Sakurai's recent comments convinces Japan to stop trying to pander to the west

>>1080964 I think the 360/PS3 Generation was Disastrous enough for Japanese companies like Capcom. They got the message that making Western style games was a foolish decision. That made sense with Keiji Inafune shitty napkin math, but in practice it was hard enough to break even on any of those games, let alone actually be successful. The real issue are the people getting involved with more minor, things that have Impactful ramifications, like the shitty localizations that don't get paid enough attention to or toning down sexy character design, which only equals the opposite of more money. Hopefully it's being learnt that those types are worse than Dead weight, since games that are way less Expensive to make are making way more bank just with tits and ass.

>>1080767 this is true

>>1080901 https://www.ign.com/articles/the-prime-minister-of-japan-responded-to-a-question-about-assassins-creed-shadows-today-heres-whats-actually-going-on This article seems like a cope. The funny thing is it tends to focus on the PM saying this will encourage irl destruction of Japanese shrines with no comment as to who would be doing that. Anyway, I thought this was interesting >According to the site, the day-one patch will make tables and shelving located in in-game shrines indestructible and will reduce non-essential depictions of bloodshed taking place in shrines and temples. In addition, when attacking unarmed NPCs, there will no longer be depictions of blood.

Not every AI voice is as flawless as Dagoth Ur. I've heard many of the early experimental AI vocal covers, that's a dead ringer for a synthetic vocal glitch. >>1080976 >They got the message that making Western style games was a foolish decision. Did they? The REmakes, SF6, Dead Rising Remake, all seem extremely westernized. Same with Squeenix(Forspoken, Life is Strange), Konami(SH2 Remake), probably more that I'm not remembering. >>1080996 >spoiler More gaijin teenage influencer wannabes following Johnny Somali's footsteps clearly. Never got the appeal of that clown.

>>1080901 ayo wat takeshi gon do? do math at me? lmao

>>1080736 >>1080869 wew >>1080739 Yeah I reached a similar point a while ago. Normalfags will clap and cheer as I watch my old favorite series get turned into absolute cancer and trash. >I think I'm going to stop playing videogames I'll still play the good/old ones, but I'm not getting attached to any series like I used to. My days of being a big fan of anything are dead and gone.

>>1080817 >they/them The Japanese language does not work that way! >>1069473 Nioh 2 also makes it clear Nobunaga very much considered him a carnival attraction more than anything. One of the optional missions is Nobunaga having his half-demon underling duel his black underling for the spectacle of it.

>>1081001 >Did they? The REmakes, SF6, Dead Rising Remake, all seem extremely westernized. Same with Squeenix(Forspoken, Life is Strange), Konami(SH2 Remake), probably more that I'm not remembering. You do have a point there, I've kind of just got numb to current game releases unless it's something that actually interests me, so I Unconsciously blocked shit out. What they might have learned is that it was retarded to get barely AA Tier list developers and put them in charge of creating the next big game in important franchises, which you've also changed the entire tone, style, and direction of. I think of that point in time like the "shitty Hollywood live action movie Adaptation, but wait a Minute it's actually a fucking game for some reason" era, Now it's similar but different era of mistakes.

>>1081047 >The Japanese language does not work that way! To be fair, the Japanese language did not have gendered pronouns until Meiji era and they used 彼 in place of he/she/it instead of just "he" like today. So the they/them thing is actually more accurate. Source: https://www.ak-up.com/etymology-at-meiji-period/

>>1081065 >To be fair, the Japanese language did not have gendered pronouns until Meiji era It still "technically" doesn't. From what I understand, all the the personal pronouns that exist in Japanese, like almost every other aspect of it, are highly context and situational dependent. Pronouns like 僕 and あたし are gender neutral in-and-of-themselves, and can be used by either sex, but it's seen as extremely confrontational or abrupt for a woman to use the former while the latter you would think is the guy putting on a performance.

>>1081050 > Dead Rising Remake Failed. >Forspoken Failed. >Life is Strange Everything after the first one majorly tanked to the point that both studios who worked on them are basically dead now. Of those, only the REmakes found major success. SF6 did...okay. Same with SH2.
