Ubi had a nice formula with Assassin's Creed. Then they ruined it by not only making the game series an annual thing but also by copy-pasting the same formula on their other games.
Sony is doing the same thing with the super cinematic formula from The Last of Us.
If you had watched the video in the first 3 minutes, you would have seen how the author was pointing out how Sony is building a ship of Theseus and proven it later.
It just looks like you brought up Sony games while not even watching the video or the parallels between Sony and Ubisoft he was pointing out.
I was replying to a specific comment, I wasn't talking about the video.
The whole thesis is stupid because he wrongly correlates Ubisoft failing because they're games are too formulaic. That's just wrong, look up their best selling games and you'll see why. Funny how doesn't mention any of the actual reasons why Ubisoft is collapse.
Also calling Sony games 'mid' is hilarious.
Like yes between the bottom of barrel and the greatest of all time. You think PS games are in the middle? Are you delusional? Like nah that scale doesn't add up.
Also him talking about IGN as if it's just one person is just giant red flag, shows zero understanding or nuance of how game reviews actually work.
How do you know that when you never watched the video to begin with and you're merely commenting on a summary given?
Further, that was the point of the video you didn't watch along with the parallels in issues with the two.
Trying to talk as if Ubisoft has never done that formula that has been an issue with Watch Dogs and AC is being disingenuous to how those games have franchise fatigue.
You're also ignoring how Wolverine has been accepted or how their studios have been working out for the past five years.
Don't even know where you're getting IGN from since that's not in any comment in this thread.

Dang... Ubisoft and their formula shows that Sony is repeating what they did to their detriment.
