    I hate investor leeches as much as the next person but saying “I want Ubisoft to focus on long-term strategy to provide exceptional experience to the gamers, rather than try to release multiple mediocre games every year” is not that crazy of an input

      I don’t know which I despise more: sleazy ubi suits or the cockroaches that finance those ubi suits.

      Fucking sucks that you can’t just buy from a dev studio directly. So only indie games on GOG for me… Haven’t had that much fun in quite a while. And no longer need to upgrade my PC.

          I am currently somewhat addicted to The X-Com Files. It’s a mod for OpenXCom which in turn is a port of the original 1993 X-Com. It’s fucking brilliant (and free).

          Before that I played a campaign of Starsector. I also liked Gris and Dredge earlier.

      And then to take it private because being public means Ubisoft is focusing on pleasing shareholders instead of making great games. The whole message is… unexpected, to say the least. Like a bunch of gamers got together to stop Ubisoft killing itself.
