No. Accelerationism. Like Disney destroying Star Wars, Vivendi taking over Ubishit would destroy that company. The only reason Ubisoft cranks out the utter fucking tripe that they do, replete with and crammed full of progressive politics and multiculturalism shoehorned messages, is because they get tons of subsidies from the French government. The French citizens are essentially funding digital propaganda through taxpayer money.
Vivendi would have waltzed into the industry barking orders about shit they don't know about or understand and would have wrecked the china shop, and we wouldn't need to worry about seeing any more Ubi bullshit like Beyond Coons and Evil, We Wuz Asscreeds, Watch_Nogs 2, etc.

It depends on what path you want to take. France is the headquarters itself and has a good portion of developers, but to my knowledge getting into the French studio is basically getting into the highest positions of the company importance wise, regardless if its development or business. Canada is the other major country where their development teams are based, but you'll have to deal with the French-Canadians on a daily basis there and I can tell ya' they were a pain in the ass to deal with due to lack of proper communications. They always struck me and a few others as the stuck-up brats of the company and it showed. Beijing holds a mixture of development and testing teams but they primarily focus on the mobile market, alongside with some of the marketing team which focuses on the Asian and Oceanic region. We all know the chink stories and I'm pretty sure those still apply, but if you got the worst case of the yellow fever, the place seems jam-packed with average and ugly looking chinks, alongside a few decent ones. Singapore holds - primarily - a development team which also serves as an in-house testing team from my knowledge and generally speaking, they are the best people to work with. It's not an exaggeration when I say those motherfuckers all but did our jobs for us, providing us all the material we needed and all the information we could possibly ask for without even asking for it. If they wanted us to work on something, they made damn sure we had everything including the kitchen sink at our disposal before they even thought about throwing some work at us. Add into that the fact they were a pleasure to talk and work with and it made any project they had a heavy hand in coordinating / working on a marvel to work on. Their most recent work was on everything regarding naval combat and water in the newest Asscreed. Finally you have Romania with two studios, one in Cluj and one in Bucharest. The Cluj one is focused on mobiles while the Bucharest one is on consoles and PC, but both cities have both a massive testing team alongside a development team that the Frenchies are quickly trying to expand to rival their Canadian studio. You also got several contractors scattered around the world, most notably the Ruskies which were on the same level as those in Singapore when it came to work ethic and being a pleasure to work with.
As for student opportunities, it depends where you live and where you want to work. I'm not entirely sure about being an intern for them as a student but I do know they offer regular development / programming boot camps through which to teach you how to make their shit and - hopefully - hire you on after University. As an employee, however, even some random ass QA tester I was, you got a world of opportunities with them due to their policy of granting as much social mobility as they can. Language courses for French and Chinese that come along with a certification if you pass, programming courses, design courses, so on and so forth. Employee's are always picked first for new positions and you generally have about a month to apply and try to nab them before they put them out on the market proper for outsiders. Due to Vivendi's attempts the pass few years, they also started an in-house investment program with all employee's where you could buy share in the company at a massively reduced price through them and sister firms. You don't get any say in company policy and need to wait a year or so before you can cash out, but the buying price goes below 50% of what it is on the stock market while you can sell it for full.
This is all in stark contrast from EA, which has a revolving door policy. They don't offer you shit until a mass exodus happens, at which point they generally dish out a 5% raise and that's it.

It's obvious you don't. How come, despite nearly a century of absolute communist rule, you have chinks lose their shit when a game virtue signals?

Didn't expect that at all from Ubi. If what you say is true then that puzzles me even more as to why their games are all mixed bags of wasted potential. I was always of the mind that Ubisoft still had enough talent working there to make interesting games in terms of environments and settings, but most of the writing for their games is bloody horrible. I'm sure this depends largely on the development teams, but it seems like a trend among most of their games. Create a game that's eye-catching enough on the outside, but barely have enough on the inside to warrant a full playthrough.
What games have you worked on, if you are willing to tell us, and where does most of the sjw-leaning crowd sit in the company? You can't tell me it's all suits and yes-men who just see which way the wind is blowing outside and are trying to cash in on it.

It kinda is. A lot of Ubisofts profit comes from the fact they have shoe-string budgets compared to the rest of the industry, especially giants like EA or Activision. If I remember right, the past few AssCreeds with the exception of Origin - whose data I never got to see since I left before the title was released - never passed a million in budget from internal data. The thing with eye-catching on the outside but barren on the inside is that's what the market is geared towards. The majority of people never even complete the games themselves, the entire strategy is to make something interesting at a glance and sell it successfully to the public. Focus on the early and middle portions of the game whilst padding the late game content with side quests, activities, exploration, and other stupid shit so that the majority of consumers will never actually complete the game whilst instilling the invested time fallacy into them.
The thing is, this isn't some grand evil scheme or shit. This is exactly what the consumers demand out of their games and the industry itself is happy to oblige since it means they can get away with smaller budgets. Ubisoft is just smart in that the marketing budget isn't overinflated to shit like EA or Activision so their margins are exponentially better.
As for games, mostly Origins, which honestly changed my opinion about the company from mild disgust to infatuation due to the Singaporeans, the CEO himself, and the conditions and possibilities it offered.

Frankly that's more depressing than having a bunch of SJW queers dragging your game down with their stupid shit, though I'm not really convinced that isn't also the case. The writing for most of their games have been cringe worthy at best, littered with nonsense straight out of their playbook.

Your "logic" still makes no sense. Let's pretend Westerners don't care about the pozz (which we know is not true for at least half the population) and let's assume that the people in charge of Ubisoft are in it for the money.
If Westerners don't care about the political message of a game, and other markets do, why do they consistently push an ideology that actively repels people in other countries from buying their games?

Yes. Do you know why Monster Hunter clones were made? Soul Sacrifice and Toukiden etc?
A fool would say "to profit off the popularity of monhun". But Monster Hunter is so popular that no true fan would even look at the competitors.
The reason those clones were made is because there was a demand, an enormous demand, from the Japanese market to make an easier game. There are literally millions of Japanese people who cannot beat Yian Kut-ku, a very easy starter boss early in the game.
That is why the shitty Monster Hunter clones exist, that is the niche they fill.
then monster hunter world comes out, which is even easier than the clones, and the "hardcore" playerbase that refused to play the clones buy the fuck out of it anyway and it's the highest selling game in the franchise now. gooks love easy games.
At this point, there isn't a single franchise that was known for being difficult that hasn't been casualized to hell and back in Japan. Not even Wizardry, which was kept alive in Japan.

>But AssCreed is not a hardcore game in any shape or form, nor does Ubisoft make hardcore games. What they do make is casual, grindy shitfests with a ton of DLC, which by your own definition is what the chinks, nips and gooks of this world want.
That is correct. Is your point that it sells poorly there? I wouldn't really know. What I can tell you is Call of Duty is very popular there, and I think that's more than comparable.

And there we have it.
Retard whales are the exact reason why companies make such scummy moves all the time. It's raking in lots of money.
No need for content or actual good games, just get people addicted to watching cards change into bigger numbers when you pay more money.
>>14521619
That's a good point to bring up actually. Their culture is big on showing off value and in a way 'boasting' about how much shit they spent.
So when kids start playing some mobile MMO with an in game economy or some form of competition perhaps… They spend big to get big. The 'social' aspect has a different definition for them.
normalfags typically find the 'social' pressure is simply being able to play with their friends on a game, if the content is locked behind a paywall, they'll feel more compelled to pay money to keep up with the levelling grind for instance.
In Asia, it's more cosmetic perhaps? They have a pressure to git gud and spend boatloads of money on the most frivolous shit just because they can say they have done so. I'm just throwing out ideas here. It seems that companies know what makes who tick and can exploit that to make profit regardless of the developers even making good content.
Honestly, this stuff is interesting. But at the same time, paying money for a chance to get loot shouldn't really be called gameplay.

The poz they introduce doesn't negatively affect sales in those regions because those regions were never a real market in the first place. Hell, the Beijing's studio major game is a fucking mobile Rabbids game. That should tell you enough about what kind of market asia is.

Likely similar reasons in all honesty. The sense of progression, the chance to boast about their game wealth. It's just not as big an incentive to splash out for virtue alone I think. Rather in the West people are more keen on spending money for DLCs and more repetitive content that'll keep them glued on a game for longer.
Also if a group of friends who congregate on disagreement or some shit are constantly talking about how good a game is, you may be willing to buy it to play with them. That's the idea of social pressure and that's why multiplayer games typically make more money if I am not mistaken.
Of course all the streamers on Twitch spend tons of fucking money for the attention and the signalling status. That's just narcissism compelling them to spend hundreds of dollars at a time on lootboxes.
Do people even know how vidya used to be? Look past the dated graphics of older games and you can see a product that was basically complete, purchased once and the content was yours to actually play. There was fun in playing games. DLC (or expansions) was cheap and added a lot to the game and NOTHING was content locked. You got your money's worth in some sense.
Now it's fallen to some cheap gimmicky normalfag shit and any game that actually *has* content will most certainly be bombarded with crappy micro transactions (even in a game you spent 70 bucks for) and riddled with paywalls and DLC shit from the get go.
And that's not even going into DRMs, expansion passes, skins and cosmetics for a game you already paid
Free to play ultimately is going to have all of this shit. But it's getting worse.

I guess you hear people call you a retard a lot, right? The thing with Japan is that their entertainment industry is highly segregated. The faggot that plays gatcha shit isn't going to fork over money for that niche visual novel that gets made. The issue with the West isn't even necessarily the pozz, but the fact everything is made to be an "for everyone" product. Sure, Japan might not be the Holy Land weebs imagine it to be, but at least most of what they create doesn't make me want to hurl in disgust.
>I would shill for Soros if I could figure out how to get employed. I have no shame, so I don't blame you.

You have to keep and process the bodies and take the organs. It's pretty much very asian to use the entire animal.
I'll try to explain the asian market and why they lag in trend in comparison to the west until pretty recently. Short answer is internet bandwidth. When the west already had broadband, most of asia with the exception of the tech hubbed countries like japan and korea were stuck on 56k and other prebroadband connections. This caused semi casual games like gunbound to be taken very fucking seriously and people would actually pour money into cosmetics for their avatars if available because you couldn't exactly record and upload your replays so character fame actually did travel by the word of mouth or IRC on what name the player had, how outrageous it looks and how good the guy actually is.
Fast forward 20 years and all those elements have now evolved into mobile shit with gatcha. Those people who played the older games are now adults working the asian rat life and some of them literally only game while taking a shit. This doesn't mean there's no hardcore gamers though as asian autist exist. They're the people who demanded the early CS bots be made so hard it would headshot you from impossible ranges because every single one of them have practiced their awp to a hair trigger and they still demand to be able to improve their game. Game wise the asians may seem casual because they were stuck with cyber cafe favourites like CS 1.5 and warcraft 3 but the amount of time they spent playing those few games they had access to was ungodly. Most of those people are working adults now and also only play mobile games and dota occassionally.
Around 10-15 years ago, mmos became popular in south east asia which was made available due to the implementation of broadband but i really don't know enough about the trend to comment. All i know is that maplestory, ragnarok online and ran online were the dominant mmos and all that told me is that people either played them in cyber cafes or had potato tier computers at home for them.
Nowadays though, everyone outside of china and korea is rich enough to own a pc so cyber cafe culture is slowly dying. Japan treats theirs more like a resting spot to enjoy media and the focus on asia now is on free games like dota or purely epeen games like pubg.
