All you have to do to get my money is let me be a pirate, a jedi, a ninja, or a samurai. My inner child can't help themselves.

So how can Ubisoft be so terrible that I have literally not wanted to play their Pirate game, their StarWars game, and now their Ninja/Samurai game!?

Hey now! Ubisoft is still enabling your desire to become a pirate! Just ... In a different way than they wanted.

I think that's really the issue with Ubisoft, they just don't make "must play" games anymore. Seriously, what's the last universally liked Ubisoft game that everyone wanted to play? Far Cry 3. Close second is probably AC: Black flag but that was already suffering from AC fatigue and its critical acclaim has come retroactively. Those games are over a decade old. Ubisoft hasn't released anything in the last decade where the mainstream gaming goes "We must play that". Ubisoft simply doesn't make exciting games anymore. They make games that are for everyone which also means they're for no-one.

Honestly I just read Ubisoft and pass on it. They've been too hostile to customers for too long for me to consider.
