Ubisoft is one of the biggest game publishers on earth, but despite its success, it seems incapable of making a game rated 10/10. We explore why this might be the case, the strengths and weaknesses of the company, and how it might be able to score itself that illusive score.

The thing I hate the most about ubisoft, is there are times where they show real effort and a solid foundation to their games. But, they end up bringing it down for some reason. The best example of this is wildlands and breakpoint.

@sozius0 5 ай бұрын

Mainly curious since I haven't played them but can you elaborate on what parts show the effort, passion and talent behind those games and what brings them down to mediocrity?

@TeSnnr 5 ай бұрын

@@sozius0 Ok, speaking on wildlands the game world is beautiful from barren deserts and to lush forrest it's world is very well done. However, the missions of the world extremely uninteresting and rather boring. There's a pretty wide range of ways to approach missions, for example if you enter a base at night a majority of guards will be asleep. However, every base or location looks the same or works the same and the enemies of the base will always respawn removing the need to take down bases. There is no variety to the enemies in the base game, however they do add enemy variety in the dlc. As for breakpoint take everything good about wildlands and remove it and make it a crappy version of division.

I have a friend that works at Ubisoft on a dev team for r6, so here's some shit ubisoft won't outloud: they don't hire anyone, and have far too high expectations to meet their unrealistic deadlines. They fired like six r6 teammates like five years ago, never re-hired anyone, and expected the team to be FASTER. My friend was pissed, and since last I talked to him, I'm almost certain he quit and moved on to another studio. It's yet another one of a dozen examples of management sharting all over a studio.

@jediritterger 5 ай бұрын

The problem with Ubisoft's Post launch support is that either they drop their promises like in R6 Extraction or they release patches that don't make any sense. Like in Siege some patches feel like they don't even play their own game and don't get me started on the balancing of For Honor.

@xxfratosxx8257 5 ай бұрын

Honestly. I think that's why I stop playing for honor after 2 or 3 months. Once they start making bad changes and uninstalled and didn't look back.

Not releasing updates to bad decision on updates Ubisoft just at a huge low.

I did some googling after being surprised about the Notre Dame thing, but turns out, while Ubisoft COULD have given their 3D render as a blueprint, they did make multiple changes to the interior to facilitate parkour and assassinations, which the real building wouldn't have had. Plus many of the sculpted artworks are actually IP protected, so none of the wall sculptures in the game (which aren't even 3d for optimization purposes) would have helped for restorations. Still, its amazing to think Ubisoft's map design is so well done it could have truly been useful in restoring such a priceless piece of human culture (if they stuck to the original, anyway). Also they donated half a million towards the restoration efforts so thats something edit: hold on that time travel assassin-assassinator idea actually sounds absolutely amazing. Let Ubi hear of this

Ive been saying for so many years that Ubisoft could've broken into the survival scene with The Division 1. That games has one of the most immersive and beautifully bleak setting & game world, its the perfect canvas for a Survival game set in a concrete jungle. That was actually the original design for Division 1 you know? A tactical 3rd personal survival shooter. That couldve been a 10/10 imo, the main thing Div1 suffered from other than a rocky launch was the Live service model & the combat; Super bullet sponges are the most dull & boring thing in a shooter. Anyways, if Ubisoft can go back to the Div 1 map, and make an immersive open world survival game based around the time of Div 1, they would have their 9-10 rated game imo.

You only mentioned For Honor for a second but as a long term player of it, it’s an extremely well documented example of Ubisoft falling short. They copyrighted the fighting system, yet because of the bad launch of the game execs essentially gave up on it and barely fund the dev team. As a result, one of Ubi’s and arguably one of gaming as a whole’s most unique titles has been squandered for 7 years. The community & devs are extremely dedicated and it’s very polished now, but oh no it doesn’t have a million active players so Ubi just drops it on its head

I remember after the WD1 downgrade controversy, ubi went on record saying they spent extra time fleshing out and polishing WD2. And it definitely shows cause WD2 was a damn good game. I know ubi has it in them to make great games, but unfortunately cause of investors and higher ups all they can do is produce “good enough” titles. They don’t sit with a title in development long enough to make it feel unique and fun. When they keep getting ordered to “make the map bigger” or “extend the game time” it very quickly turns into soulless content that’s just shoehorned to meet a quota. I feel bad for the devs that WANT to make great games at Ubisoft. At the end of the day, as long as ubi has proof of concept of something they’re developing they can keep getting investors to invest. They’re a company that doesn’t succeed cause they dont know how, it’s more cause they just don’t want to.

But they will never find one, or rather, never realize that the formula already exists. You know how you guarantee success? You produce an original product that's well made and reasonably priced. It's as simple as that. But they will never take that to heart because coming up with good ideas requires creativity, and investing in them requires willingness to take a risk. And the money machine is capable of neither." -Ben "Yhatzee" Croshaw, 2023

I have to disagree. A satisfying narrative always makes a game better. Take the best survival crafting game ever made for an example. Subnautica starts out with "You're stranded lol, good luck not getting eaten scrub." and moves into "Oh hey, someone is coming to pick you up, because of course they are, you where on a capitol ship of a space-faring race. They know you crashed" and then moves to "You're infected with a ridiculous disease that will kill you and all life on this planet if you don't cure it (and also you won't be allowed to leave)". The narrative in Subnautica isn't REQUIRED to make the game fun, but it sure as shit makes it way more interesting than something like Valheim where it's just "you died, now fight all these things to prove yourself worthy of Valhalla". I got bored grinding Valheim resources after 60 hours, I didn't get bored on Subnautica until I had finished my third sea base and had to craft a massive rocket to get off the planet.

I think they do NOT need to made an open world survival game, it's the death of too many game developers and it's a very unfocused genre. I think they could make a very focused offshoot of it, like a semi-open world sandbox like MGSV and they're already very close with the far cry series to creating something like that. They just need an insanely strong artistic flair and cinematic directing in a slightly more distant and interesting world and they could create a spiritual successor to MGSV that has online interactive features for more engagement.

Their only offerings at the moment are hyper-competetive time trial racing in Trackmania and Forza Horizon copycat in The Crew. So many racing game fans dearly miss franchises like Burnout, Motorstorm, or Split/Second, and no one is trying to fill that void. I can't recall any recent racing games where when you mess up and crash your car violently explodes and then you respawn and continue the race. Everything nowadays is simcade racing where you drive licensed cars and when you hit a wall at 200 mph your car bounces off and has scratched paint.

Honestly, what I'd love to see would be a progression-based open world game based in a mixed fantasy setting (think Harry Potter, Skyrim, etc). Have some survival aspects, but not as much as Rust. Have some MMO aspects, but not as much as WOW. Something in between that offers a great contrast between muted bg visuals, and then very vibrant magic systems that truly stand out and bring color to the world - only to then quickly fade away afterwards. High dynamic saturation range is something very few AAA games every play with, but it has so much untapped potential. I think Ubisoft uniquely could excel in this type of game.
