It just boggles my mind how execs can learn the wrong lesson 100% of the time. It seems impossible.
Regardless, they keep canning games like 1313 that get fans hyped and give us generic trash instead.

Oh, he 100% knows the truth. He just can’t say it since admitting it’s Ubisoft’s fault would lower investor confidence (and therefore affect his personal wealth). This is the standard “blame our failures on market forces outside our control” move that all CEOs of publicly-traded are forced to do.
The stock market was a mistake.

Maybe. It does kinda make sense.
These assholes are the same idiots that think they can sell the company yet maintain creative control though.
Hell yeah, comrade. Abolish the stock market.
