Private companies are just as capable of making bad decisions as public ones. You just hear about them less due to scale. The same people will still be in charge at Ubisoft if this happens, and they're used to making money a certain way. This move would just be to prevent someone else from taking over the company.

Thats fair, its more a way to hide from the public so they can continue making unpopular choices.

I still am hopeful they will realign with what their customers actually want. Its good to know the signs things are going wrong though so I appreciate that.
