- NetOpWibby 5y agoThat actually happened in Watch Dogs 2. It was a funny tongue-in-cheek mission.
- dijit 5y agoI worked for Ubisoft, curious why you think we’re worse than EA.
- AlexandrB 5y agoAs far as I know, EA did not permit and then cover for a bunch of sex pests in upper management[1]. It's sad that the work of a bunch of talented people is tarnished by these kind of management misdeeds.

- dijit 5y agoI worked for Ubi during that time and honestly, I think if Yves had known any of this Serge would have been let go long ago. The head of global HR was covering for Serge. She was axed immediately (as was Serge). It’s important to know though. Serge was _insanely_ core to the functionality of Ubisoft; he was the sole approver of every AAA game. Axing him was like removing the beating heart of the company to shareholders. Obviously our morality says that this was the right thing to do, but I’ve seen other CEOs who would cover for such an “invaluable asset”. And Serge was axed before this was public, so it’s not like the hand was forced- there was a “creative directors board of editoriale” which sprung up shortly before because of this.
