They learned PR from the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense it seems.

I imagine most of the legit players are smacking their lips, sucking their teeth, and playing on a stolen Playstation.

The budgets of both games was about the same, and yet somehow AC: Shadows "broke every sales record" while EA's actions and veiled statements post-Veilguard indicate it probably was a costly flop.

I legit think Ubisoft bought their own game.

EDIT: lol lmao Cyberpunk 2077 is still more popular than AC: Shadows - https://steamdb.info/charts/?compare=1091500,3159330

I'm sure the exact words they said were true. But the statement that AC: Shadows had "the 2nd highest day one sales behind Valhalla", is a great way of lying with numbers.

AC Mirage basically went out there to die as a flop, and that means Shadows only beat games that came out 7-8+ years ago back when digital distribution wasn't nearly as common because people were still buying physical boxes.

I think more people are checking the Steam concurrent players stats than there are concurrent players for AC: Shadows

When Failguard is laughing at you, you know you fucked up. Or at least you should and it doesn't look like Ubisoft does.

The disconnect between "top selling game, even on Steam" and the total lack of players is astonishing and nobody's asking how that's possible. I'm supposed to believe all these people bought the game just to not play it?

Nothing says ''everything is going great'' like getting bought by China.
