    It’s okay, they’re probably still working on a hundred million other mediocre games. Truly a quantity over quality publisher.

    Shame they wouldn’t cancel their own existence.

      I had to laugh when they described Far Cry 6 as AAAA.

      It’s a buggy load of generic shite. I’ve never had to reboot my PS5 before because bullets stopped making sounds…

      I’m sure they can churn out a bunch more half-finished board game and game show adaptations.

    Quite a few people in The Division community loved the Survival mode from Division 1, so I figured would have had a good audience. I’m a Division fan, but didn’t care for Survival or the Beta of Heartland, so can’t say I’m heartbroken over this.

      I like The Division 2 a lot and have spent almost zero time in the PVP zones in my couple hundred hours.

      I hope the pivot is just over to The Division 3.

        What, you don’t like entering a fight only to lose all your HP in an instant to someone that spent 2000 hours grinding critical hit chance stats?

        Same. I love the division for the coop PvE element. I’m not bummed about the. Still looking forward to the division 3, assuming it doesn’t get cancelled as well

    Strange. This looks like a decent evolution of the previous game, with a built-in audience.

      Ubisoft doesn’t care about a great game that’s only modestly profitable. It is too afraid of that. Shareholders demand mediocre games that a lot of people will buy.
