They actually don't demand anything from you, just don't buy it if it's not for you. That was my entire point and I'm not sure how you missed it, don't tell people not to buy Ubisoft games if that's what they enjoy? You all can play whatever niche and indie games you enjoy and others can play the new AC, live and let live.

"Just don't buy it if you don't like it" can apply to absolutely anything a consumer criticizes. It's also extremely unhelpful.

Also, that's a really strange argument from someone who also said:

it sucks to see the state of the industry as a whole right now and really hope we can get back to being respected as consumers some day.

Again, I'm not saying people can't criticize Ubisoft or AC as a franchise. I take umbrage with people saying they shouldn't spend money on things they enjoy. I see you all over Lemmy and feel like you're pretty levelheaded, am I taking crazy pills here? That was all I said in response to a comment about how "we" shouldn't buy Ubisoft trash. Look at all the weird straw men that people have replied with. I thought this place was supposed to be better than reddit.
