Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles

That is the most 2020 generic gatcha name I've ever heard

Never give Ubi money. Or EA.

having stealth-launched a full-blown web3 game last week called Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles on PC.

Champions Tactics is billed as a "PVP tactical RPG game on PC", and is both developed and published by Ubisoft. It involves collectible figurines of various warriors from the in-game fantasy world of Grimoria, which players assemble into squads of three and then battle in turn-based combat that looks oddly reminscent of Darkest Dungeon, of all things.

dear fuck this is incredibly generic. the game series is… Champions? of which this is a tactical installment and also the chronicles of Grimoria, a fantasy name so bland I can’t believe it’s not copyright infringement? this shit — name, concept, and all — definitely came from an LLM

But fundamentally, Ubisoft's perspective on the tech seems surprisingly bullish; the vice president of its Strategic Innovation Lab seems to think gamers just "don't get it."

yeah! your target audience just refuses to get what you’re going for! I wonder what that’s called again? oh yeah, failure

Shows no gameplay, and the marketing is nft shit and generic trashy free to play bullshit games. "Become a legend!" No big surprise it was a failure.

Is my product concept fundamentally bad?

No, it's the customers who are wrong.

Didn't some Ubisoft exec (possibly the same one) already blame gamers for the lack of success that this pirate "AAAA" game I've already forgotten the name of had?

A day late and a bitcoin short

In pursuit of bag holders, Ubisoft has become a bag holder.

One of the nft figures in the game goes for $65k.

This should be illegal

Sold for 65k or offered for?

To signal their foray into NFTs they should drop the FT from the name. Ubiso. Short for, U should Bi So lucky we make any games for you at all, peasant.
