And all of a sudden, their salary is not on your books anymore, and that is...
very annoying and tragic when companies decide to do that.
And also another thing is when you have an entire Ubisoft working in the same building together, you could argue that, I think the upper management is probably arguing that, okay, we can all be on the same page this way.
But I think what's going to end up happening is that the projects that are
worth the most money to them, obviously, are going to be able to quickly pull talent off of other potentially more risky or creative projects just to make sure that the dollar is most attended to.
I think that's something you might see now that some of these groups of developers don't have their distance from the mothership.
We'll see.
That's all speculation.
I feel sorry for
Anyone on that Ubisoft ship, I'm sure the morale is not tip top over there.
No.
Yeah, I mean, to a degree, everything caught my eye.
Obviously, you know, Forza Horizon is probably the biggest layup of a recurring game that Xbox has in the tank.
Those games are always fun.
And the setting of Japan,
really seems like it's going to be a fun setting for that game they don't have to change that formula much at all for that to be a great success just taking the previous game and throwing in japan is probably enough for most people to consider that a worthwhile game to play so i i'm looking at that being their their biggest success of the year but but fable uh impressed uh as well i think
tonally that that game continues to feel unique and special and we'll just have to wait to see how that gameplay actually ends up being kiln from double fine i probably i mean let's let's be honest the most appealing thing about that to me was the fact that it's from double fine which is the same thing i said about their last release last year yes which i
felt underwhelmed by.
So I'm hoping for more.
I just love Tim Schafer and I love Double Fine and I'm rooting for them at every opportunity.
