Ubi gets shit for their repetitive gameplay loop that they just apply to all their games. But you can’t knock their attention to detail when it comes to making their worlds. When the Notre Dame burned down a few years ago Ubisoft said they would help with the reconstruction effort by providing all the detailed 3D scans they did of the structure using drones flying up and down its interior and exterior.

Ubisoft doesn’t fuck around when it comes to that kind of stuff. Shame that can’t put in the effort to innovate their gameplay or have different gameplay loops across genres.
I agree on the world building; that along with their marketing or promotional collateral is kingly.

Their shortcomings however tally more than just mission copy-paste and play loop. They asset-flip across essentially AA titles and won't invest in advancing what are still PS3-era cinematics – even for flagship series instalments; skimp on QA to a point of negligence and have year-one playersguinea pigs do it for them; overpromise and underdeliver on everything from canon integrity to bundles, then have the audacity to charge 110€ for it; and politicise everything, thinking it relevant for us to know everyone who worked on the game has genitalia they disagree with and is a victim of severe food allergies as well as gluten-based lifestyles.

Portfolio items that will always have a place in my heart are Far Cry, Ghost Recon, and The Division. Seeing what they've done to the former two is heart-cleaving. Still haven't played the newest FC with Fring because of it. Shame. They need new leadership and creatives. Same crusty brothers been running it all this time; not sure they even game.
 
Kind of blown away by this but couldn't help but think on various sword combat and movesets in some of the games we play:
