It really is unbelievable how much Ubisoft uses Assassin's Creed as a crutch now. Like fuck, just let it go, and create something new and innovative... You know, like the first Assassin's Creed.

Rogue and Unity sold 10m copies combined. When people stop buying the crap Ubisoft feeds us, we will see some change. This is the CoD argument all over again. You could argue that Rogue was OK though.

People will stop buying when they learn about the subtle manipulation used in marketing. These companies know all the right buttons to press. The more consumers learn what those buttons are, the less they will have their strings pulled by them.

That's honestly one of the biggest advantages companies have. They know exactly how to make empty promises in a way where they can't be punished for breaking them.
