Ubisoft Forward |OT| Road to Eden
- Thread starter Arubedo
- Start date
Thank You! And yeah, i've read the latest "Libération" issue and it's truly a nightmare at Ubisoft, they need to change that ASAP.
I cannot get hyped for this after what came out. Hell I am not sure if we as a community should be giving Ubisoft free promotion.
It's not to hard to slap a camera in front of gyes and edit that in at the beginning. Mabey it won't have a professional transition and will be an awkward cut but it's better then nothing for sure
I wonder if they will address the increasing number of allegations that have been coming to light. Then again, this is a company who are known for putting players in politically charged situation whilst claiming that their titles are apolitical- so taking responsibility does not come easy if at all to ubisoft.
I will tune into this when it is time and I hope the journalists do their due diligence and consequently force ubisoft to rectify the culture of deep and normalized rot.

It's harder than you think. In big companies everything takes way more time, furthermore I can only imagine than anything that management say will be reviewed and inspected by an army of lawyers. Anyway, I would be surprised if they acknowledge the situation by anything else than a splash screen at the beginning or (worse) the end. I expect no mention of it at all.
No. They shouldn't put a message going "hey, there is rampant sexual assault from the higher ups and HR knew about it... BUT LOOK VIDEOGAMES!". It would reek of tone deafness
And it's way too late to delay the show now.
Honestly I was looking forward to this event, but the news has soured my mood.
I doubt the general public is aware of any of these unfortunately.
I highly doubt the journalists will do anything asides from maybe mention it in their coverage articles. They already have previews/gameplay ready of Assassins Creed and Watch Dogs, so asides from maybe mentioning it on the side nothing is happening
Yeah. Wouldn't be anymore awkward than the GTA V opening for the recent Sony event.
O for sure it'll be a lot harder then I imagine, but with this situation they will have to work overtime if they want a good message and don't want to delay the event. They should have delayed it for sure and made a long segment at the begging addressing it. Yet, if there not delaying it that's on them it's not an excuse to not bring up the allegations they need to.
What would they say tho? "Oops, we got caught. Sorry?"
Naah, the Ubisoft higher ups have been complicit in the shitshow that has been happening at the company. Any statement would just be disingenous as fuck and only made because they got caught.
I agree that they should. But from experience, this is never how it works. That's why I expect nothing but still hope I'm wrong.
This is supposed to be Rayman's 25th anniversary, so I really hope we get something related to it.
Unfortunately my expectations are pretty low.

Ya it's a damned if you do damned if you don't but it's extra damned if they don't say anything. I would start off the speech by showing recites of firing and telling people they will here about more of this. They need to show action
They teased it last E3, but I don't think we heard from it since.
Rainbow Six Quarantine: E3 2019 Teaser Trailer | Ubisoft [NA]
Just revealed, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Quarantine is a brand-new 3-player tactical co-op FPS and will be available in 2020 on Xbox One, PlayStation®4 comput...
youtu.be
Oh god it is. Rayman released in 1995.
Please.
Also, I am just now seeing the Ubisoft workplace stuff.. :/
Didn't they delay it indefinitely because of the whole real life quarantine thing?
They were going to run a game test a few weeks ago just before the PlayStation reveal but they canceled it.They teased it last E3, but I don't think we heard from it since.

At least we know it's alive and well
Hoping to see God's and Monsters and hopefully a surprise. ..
Also sweepstake if Just Dance makes it to the Wii again

Nah, they delayed it in October along with Gods & Monsters and Watch Dogs after the Ghost Recon Breakpoint farce.
I'm sad for those who have worked so hard on a lot of these games and were so proud and excited to show the fruit of their labor, but I'm even sadder for what some, according to these new reports, probably lived, or maybe did not but now know other colleagues lived through, so I hope for their sake and for the many great people there, that a systemic change is underway.

What do you want them to say "We are sorry about the 100+ cases of harrassment within our company, but LOOK AT ALL THESE VIDEOGAMES!" ?
Them speaking about the harrassment would be tasteless and tone deaf. If anything, the show should be delayed but it won't be.
Mmmm can we not talk about the other stuff in here...just a suggestion,there's plenty of posts about the allegations and all elsewhere here...
Assuming it goes ahead as scheduled I can't see them saying anything, I don't know what they could say that would appease anyone, and the majority of people watching won't have a clue about what's going on anyway so I imagine they won't want to draw attention to it.
I'm not expecting there to be much of anything exciting anyway. Far Cry is pretty tired and I can't see them reinvigorating it. The AC: Valhalla leaked gameplay didn't look very impressive even as someone who likes the last two (I know its old unpolished footage but even so). I don't expect to see Beyond Good and Evil and I've given up hope on Splinter Cell.
Watch Dogs Legion looks good but they've shown quite a lot of it already.

Ah yes, Assassin's Creed 12, Just Dance 22, Far Cry 9, Watch Dogs 3, and updates to their countless GaaS titles.
Cant wait.
Ubi conferences are always a mix of snoozefest and cringe moments.

The people who this effects don't get to hide away and pretend it doesn't happen. We should be shining a critical eye on what shitty companies like this are doing.
And if it makes you uncomfortable, then you need to reflect why. Enjoying media isn't worth human suffering.
How about we don't just have an uncritical promotional thread for Ubisoft's new stuff after what happened.
Posts like this offer literally nothing to the discussion. Like, if you know you don't care don't watch?
