Ubisoft copy and paste open world sweatshop development to be owned by CCP government run Tencent… sounds like a great fit honestly.

Not sorry. Ubisoft sucks. (Still better than EA).

I’d rather Tencent invest in ubisoft than square enix

For sure, I hope that tencent chose ubisoft to invest in rather than say squre. I feel like at this point if another company invests in, or acquires square, its sonys fault. Square is low hanging fruit at this point and if sony thinks they can pass on them they fundamentally dont understand who their base is or what we want.

No.

They have a governent, regulators (linked to the government) that regulate games and both some companies that are owned by the country/govrenment and some other independent companies like Tencent who are owned/controlled by their shareholders) like Tencent.

That's certainly not what I've read, or witnessed in news... is it Western propoganda? (well I should say non-Chinese, because articles about this are from many international sources):

Are Private Chinese Companies Really Private?

Beijing has been very transparent about its intentions and ambitions when it comes to “private” sector businesses.

A Different Vision of “Private” Business

The 5,000 word “opinion” aims to ratchet-up the role and influence of the CCP within the private sector in order “to better focus the wisdom and strength of the private businesspeople on the goal and mission to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.” The objective is to establish a “united front” between business and government and facilitate the “enhancement of the party’s leadership over the private economy.” According to the plan, “private economic figures are to be more closely united around the party,” thereby achieving “a high degree of consistency with the Party Central Committee on political stand, political direction, political principles, and political roads.”

And as you said, the CCP has "fucked with" Tencent recently, big time:

CCP cancels Tencent

Chinese regulators have said they found several Tencent apps violating data protection rules on a number of occasions this year.

I don't know how you separate regulators from the CCP in China.

What’s Behind China’s Regulatory Storm

Individually, many of the rules make sense. But taken together, it’s a clear expansion of the government and the Chinese Communist Party, a China expert argues.

www.wsj.com

The reality is that many of the Chinese actions have a reasonable regulatory rationale, and can be easily defended on an individual basis. But taking a broader view, there is no question that the latest government actions represent a substantial expansion of the power of the government and the Chinese Communist Party. Every company that operates in China—including foreign companies—will from now on have to figure out what President Xi Jinping and the party want, and be prepared to respond nimbly. This new hyperpoliticized reality is likely to do long-term damage to the performance of the Chinese economy and certainly poses new risks to investors and business operators.

You've got to be alot younger and fitter to wear those jeans and not look terrible. I sure as hell couldn't do it.

As for ubisoft, it's a shame what happened. I really enjoyed ac orgins and far cry primal, but everything after that has been awful.
