[BodiesWithoutOrgans]

Gaming is dead how low is the bar

 

[Marvel]

No.

 

[Hagi]

Would be better if it came with an Assassins blade shaving kit. Get rid of your neckbeard in style.

 

[Pankratous]

Time to burn all my gaming equipment, I guess.

 

[Hubble]

Sweet. Using this will make me feel like Altair!

 

[amar212]

Gaming is mainstream

 

[@MUWANdo]

Come back, Tim Langdell. All is forgiven.

 

[RinSatori]

Yeah not ever getting that game. lol

 

[toastyToast]

I'd like to see how far this goes.

Pls continue Ubisoft

 

[iamvin22]

 

[Soodanim]

No thanks Ubisoft. I was considering getting Unity after skipping 4, but it's like they're actively trying to avoid my money.

Edit: where's the incentive for female gamers?

 

[Omega]

um.
wut

lol

 

[Beefy]

What's next?

 

[Mendrox]

Well... doesn't surprise me. Gaming is mainstream

 

[Wildschwein]

Paul Marketing and the War on Neckbeards

 

[so1337]

Haha. Sure, I'll get right on that, Ubisoft.

 

[Ashler]

I ... wut?

 

[Maastricht]

And this in Movember! Heresy!

 

[JaseC]

I can't eat this.

 

[Theman2k]

This.

God dammit Ubisoft.
This is ridiculous.

 

[ekim]

I'd like to see how far this goes.

Pls continue Ubisoft

"Take a crap at our partner mall to receive an exclusive ingame item - the Shit Sword"

 

[Cloud Strife]

LOL, okay Ubisoft, sure.

 

[Gen.Grievous]

All over my beard.

 

[Lamptramp]

Come back, Tim Langdell. All is forgiven.

Someone fire up the Tim-Signal™

I fear I may have rolled my own eyes out of their sockets.

 

[Bluemercury]

Yikes...

 

[weekev]

They can use it on their legs. Or y'know bearded ladies...

 

[Xater]

No.

Only right response to this.

I will no so hard I'm not even buying their game in the first place.

 

[Spinluck]

Yes Shave November?

 

[Persona7]

Pretty sure this has happened several years in a row now? I remember seeing a huge display at target before.

 

[big_z]

wouldn't the codes be on the bottle somewhere? you cant exactly print them on the inside.


dlc for ass creed games is usually junk so its not a big deal imo.

 

[stranger79]

Ubi being Ubi i guess

But seriously this shit has to stop - how many more shady DLC deals can you make

 

[Trust me. I'm a PhD]

Going to sound a little weird, but what about the ladies? I am sure Assassin's Creed has female fans. And dudes with beards may also enjoy the game. And teenagers. This just seems like a really targeted demo who would only make up half (or less) of your audience.

 

[Triggerhappytel]

Doritos, Dew and... Edge?! Tim Langdell will not be happy with this collaboration.

 

[SkullplateMurray]

This is not new - AC4 had this for Doctor Pepper (meat cleaver weapon) and Wilkinson's razors (a Wilkinson's sword ship figurehead).

 

[Ape]

If i see people wearing any of that online at least ill know they are well groomed

Some use the gel to shave their legs etc?

 

[ElTopo]

I hope this franchise dies now.

 

[BeforeJam]

Wow, they really are getting the Microsoft marketing treatment.

 

[Shaanyboi]

This just comes off as pathetic now...

A shame. That armor looks kinda neat. But no, fuck you Ubi

 

[Moff]

what have we become

 

[barit]

Real gamers don't shave, fail Ubisoft

 

[Nokterian]

Now i want to see it attached to Doritos and Dew and the circle is complete for Ubisoft smh.

"Get the dew with the dow and get your self a tasty clothing in the color orange and lightgreen to dew awesome action in Assassin's Creed Dewnity!"

 

[Alienous]

They really don't want women to play.

 

[Beefy]

GTA should have a dlc code at the bottom of a whisky bottle (inside) for Trevor.

 

[Ape]

They really don't want women to play.

you like girls with hairy armpits and legs? among other parts

 

[SmokyDave]

Buy product: get promotional item. Shocking.

 

[DryvBy]

A green tunic, like the green delicious shaving gel.

And it looks like a Link-ish tunic.

 

[RVinP]

true acu players
.buy EDGE shaving gels
.use code
.throw the cans

true shavers
.buy EDGE shaving gels
.use gel
.throw the codes

effect
.only a small/tiny percentage of the player base (those who use EDGE shaving gel and play acu) is actually going to appreciate this marketing move
