The current raged out retard boycott will go about as well as boycotting the latest Modern Warfare game.
Tell that to Ubisoft and assassins creed
To be fair. Ubisoft has been on decline and fucked up multiple games in a row. Ass creed shadows, starwars outlaws, skull & bones.
Valhalla was the one that started the massive collapse of stock, KCD2 is equal levels of historical absurdity as an Asian shop keep in a Viking village in Britain.
Yeah. Ubisoft is fucked. They have nothing in the pipeline that can pull them out lol. They arent gonna do splinter cell because the main char is a grizzled white dude. And even if they did, itll take them 3 to 5 years at best to make and release. Seems a lot of games like concord and dragon age now taking almost 10 years to release.. lawl.
If you're retarded enough to think there's any reasonable comparison between a single minor NPC + one set of entirely optional side quest dialogue and We Wuz Assassins, presented by a company that's made like ten shitty games in a row, then there's nothing else to say.
There’s literally more historical evidence of gay black Japanese slave “samurai” than there is of a single Mali doctor, let alone one in Europe, let alone one being in the retinue of the king of the HRE.
Maybe, but think about the scale of the companies being compared. Ubisoft, as a previously ~$16 bil company, has been able to absorb a lot more failures than Warhorse Studios ever could. At the most extreme end, how much would Warhorse Studios be worth today? $80 mil USD?
It will not be at Concord or Dustborn levels but it will most likely underperform. It is all about how much it costs and what return on investment the backers expect.
Even if this cost them 10% of sales it is probably a large chunk of their expected net profit.
It did not cost them anywhere near 10% of sales. It will make an enormous amount of money.
Lets say the cost is 200 milion. The investors expect at least 300 milion back so they need to sell about 6 million copies. If they lost 10% of sales that is 30 million out of the 100 million the investors expect as return on investment.
This is why a scandal like this can ruin a company.
Because Dustborn, Da: Vielguard, Suicide Squad, and that Overwatch killer that was so insignificant I've forgotten it's name already didn't suffer AT ALL over these boycotts.
If you think really, really, really hard you may one day understand why you just posted something incredibly retarded.
Wait. You actually believe Concord was a smashing success? Suicide Squad went free to play and announced end of life in less than a year total. Dustborn never even whimpered before it died. All of these are the direct result of the same boycotts.
You are making up a guy in your head and arguing with him instead of anything I posted.
