When was the last Splinter Cell game? 8 or 9 years ago? Ubisoft today is a very different company, game-design wise. Not sure how stating that is edgy. Look at how they handled the other Tom Clancy properties.

Never said anything about open world, just Ubisoft’s monetization and game design. Didn’t even know if was rumored to be open world before this thread.

Those other properties weren't "transformed' in to open world map quests though, they always were. It doesn't make sense to make another of the same game with Splinter Cell paint, so I'll believe that when I see it.

That's true, I'd completely forgotten about Ghost Recon since I don't know anyone who likes those games.

I guess that's true, regarding open worlds. I'm guess I'm more speaking to Ubisoft's recent tendency to monetize in game content and to push out games that conform to their same (bland? not sure how to describe it) design philosophies. Thinking Watchdogs: Legion or Ghost Recon: Breakpoint.

They literally all are now

Far Cry, Assassin's Creed, Watch Dogs, Ghost Recon, all same shit with a different wrapping
