True enough that their focus shifted from "Let's make a good story-based game" to "Fuck you, give us money". But Ubi's been on drop the ball-redeem themselves pattern already, exactly the same as with Unity - new iteration of the engine that was AC3, with glitches and ass-backwards mechanics no sane person would think of.

And yet, it happened. Then came AC4 and it was good. Then came Unity, and it was shit again. I'm getting tired of this high-low-high-low bullshit they're pulling for the sake of yearly releases.

Also, if the game has shitty mechanics and is filled with bugs, it effectively prevents me from playing, thus preventing me from getting invested in the story. Unity, like Watch Dogs, physically repulses me by now. Not because of the story, but because of the technical side being such a fucking mess, no story in it can win me over by now. I've been effectively dissuaded. Good job Ubi.
