Neither of those people were ordinary in any way tho.

Very small font on very thin paper.
True but size is also a feature here.
A small roster managed up close and dedicated to delivering consistently is much better than like, AEW in 2023.
It's the difference between an industrial bakery and a hole in the wall handmade patisserie, you get a much better product but you can't easily scale it up.
She worked on Scribblenauts iirc.
She's 17 so i think this qualifies as like, 10% of her life so far as champ?
That would be quite smart of them tbh.
Yeah I mean, it's got upsides and downsides, like everything. Unparalleled access means anyone can make something, which means a lot of things that have niche appeal can find their audience, etc.
It also means a lot of things without any appeal will be out there.
It's not good or bad in itself but it can be impractical on the consumer side of the equation, and it makes even the remarkable stuff very likely to just disappear in the shuffle.
Sure, but the stock is tanking now, and the regulations are not on the books.
Like, I agree there needs to be an overhaul of a bunch of regulations regarding monopolies and such, but this doesn't help analysing the current situation where they're not in place.
That's just generally all of media right now. We are at perhaps the highest level of accessibility for media creation we've ever been, but that means that any schmuck with a pair of thumbs and time to waste can make something.
High accessibility means abysmal signal/noise ratio, turns out.
You realise this isn't make believe at all, right? Stocks are ownership.
If a stock dips low enough it's possible to do what microsoft did with Activision Blizzard and buy out another company wholesale, for instance.
Speculation on the stock market isn't the reason the market exists, it's a side effect of its pricing mechanisms, the actual point of it is to gather money for companies and gather stake for buyers.
If a major company like Ubisoft keeps tanking, odds are you can look forward to another major buyout and merger which will make the already horribly oligopolistic game industry even smaller, which is not good for anyone involved.
People can be correct about something for the wrong reasons.
This guy is a bellend, there's plenty of reasons to cheer on the demise of Ubisoft without having to be a "DEI is in the room with us" obsessive like Grummz, and ignoring that because it's easier to call the people who don't like you chuds shows a similar level of detachment from reality.
Ubisoft's fuckups are too numerous to list, and the latest one was indeed too fall for a swindler who convinced them to try and sell one of the least marketable ideas in history, but the volume of sales lost is not in the same order of magnitude as the politically obsessed lunatics online on either side of this conversation, blaming them is like blaming sharks for all animal related deaths.
