        And I’ll say it again, dumb “quotation” because it only referred to convincing people to try Ubisoft+; which is very explicitly a game rental system.

        (Setting aside the change going in through California law where ALL retailers must stop referring to sales as ownership. That affects Assassin’s Creed just as much as your next indie Roguelike)

        They’ll go out of business and a more competent company will arise to replace them.

        It will over time. They will notice that sales are going downhill so (hopefully) they will start to listen to community complains, maybe also firing some staff until that point because of “financial struggle”.

        If sales will stay the same (or be even better) then they will not try to change anything because “if it works, don’t fix it”

        It won’t but you also won’t be disappointed by it if you never play them!

          Sure, but he didn’t advocate for a boycott, he talked about “going sailing” a.k.a. piracy
