AI summary — not a quote
Ubisoft is currently viewed with significant skepticism by the Reddit community, characterized by a predominantly negative sentiment regarding its corporate leadership and perceived anti-consumer practices. While users frequently criticize the company for its formulaic AAA titles and mandatory launcher friction, there is a distinct pocket of praise for its technical commitment to patching older games for 60FPS and its recent efforts to re-engage with the Steam ecosystem and modding community.
Pros
- Consistent 60FPS performance patches for back-catalog titles on modern consoles.
- Strong history of high-quality cross-platform ports, particularly for Nintendo hardware.
- Extensive post-launch support and long-term maintenance for released titles.
- Recent pro-consumer moves including the return of Steam achievements and providing tools to modders.
Cons
- Mandatory Ubisoft launcher causes persistent login friction and 'remember me' failures.
- Perceived lack of creative risk-taking, with a focus on high-budget formulaic games.
- History of anti-consumer practices and restrictive regional pricing.
- Corporate instability and leadership criticism, with some users speculating on potential sales or shutdowns.

I think it's because Ubisoft is a horrible company.
Well, that's why I don't buy their games.
Between adding achievements to Steam games and collaborating with modders Ubisoft is sure doing a lot of pro-consumer stuff lately!
I really wish Ubisoft would go back to making more smaller budget games that dont need to sell millions to be profitable that can actually take risks.
You know what's funny? Ubisoft used to do stuff like that. I know, funny but really, ubisoft used to be a really cool fucking company 10-15 years ago with stuff like child of light, transmission, valiant hearts, blood dragon outside of the AAA fair.

Nintendo still wins that prize. Last I checked EA and Ubisoft didn't backdate patents to try and destroyed a highly successful indie developer.
That's why Nintendo is still on the business of making games today. Like it or not, exclusives make a console.
For some bizzare reason Poland is considered on Steam (and Nintendo?) the riches country in the world, and has higher prices than the US or even Switzerland.
When the biggest fight was over whose turn it was on the Nintendo not who got left out of a group chat.
