Dear Ubisoft,

as you can clearly see the road to Virtueville isn't the easy trip you thought it would be. For one, you can never get there because Virtueville changes Location constantly. But don't worry, you still get to contribute. Everyone on the road to Virtueville is fair game. They'll use your name and reputation to shame others and they will shame you and slander you without remorse when it suits their agenda. And you will let them. And they know you will let them. Because you still believe that Virtueville ist the land of milk and honey where the untapped market awaits you with open arms.

sincerly (hah),

WhyCantYouJustMakeGames

PS: Fuck yourself

It's a good thing Assassin's Creed 2 never clicked with me. Means I've been able to spend the last ten years not giving Ubisoft a single cent.

Same experience. All the new itemization shit they added was so dumb. Not everything needs RPG elements.

They should patch out the entire game, maybe with something that's not utterly mind killingly boring.

Uh, yay! I was totally going to pass on this but now that I know it panders I'm ordering the most deluxe-iest edition!

Or not. Hell, I'm still on AC Origins and I already bought Odyssey for nearly nothing. If I do end up getting Valhalla it will be like 2023 by then. They've gotten boring anyway. I liked the old ones, the new ones are too big and full of not-fun repetition.

"Should we fix all the bugs in the game? Nah, we need to replace the ableist language instead. Priorities, man!" - Ubisoft

"Ableist".

"Disfigured " is quite possibly the most neutral way of conveying the concept without directly describing what's wrong or using ridiculous euphemisms that would barely tell you anything.

Over/under 5 years until we have someone complaining that a character's disability, whatever it may be, is mentioned at all?

I didn't want to play as a tranny viking anyway.
