Wtf does that mean

I sorta asked what he meant and he looked at me like I was dumb and said "you know, the Ls, the Ds, the Gs". I'm guessing he meant LGBTQ people, but idfk. The guy gives me bad reactionary vibes, so it wouldn't surprise me.

I look it up afterwards and most places talking about it online are accurately pointing out the company just sucks and management is awful, but I feel like that's been common knowledge for like a decade at this point.

Is this some right wing gamer bug of the month or something? Cause I'm way outta the loop

Saw some chuds still salty about AC Shadows on Reddit.

Ubisoft's problem is that lobotomized MBA's are leading the company. After the AC Unity disaster, they got a win in AC Origins and instead of learning the correct lessons which is that people want innovation, they just started spamming slop RPGs for all their major franchises.

Ubisoft still published some good games after that but the studios were rewarded with lay-offs and closures. I don't see any dev being happy to work at Ubisoft. It's just a step towards switching to a stable studio.
