We're a group of people who will sit for hours, days, even weeks on end performing some of the hardest, most mentally demanding tasks. Over, and over, and over all for nothing more than a little digital token saying we did.

We'll punish our selfs doing things others would consider torture, because we think it's fun.

We'll spend most if not all of our free time min maxing the stats of a fictional character all to draw out a single extra point of damage per second.

Many of us have made careers out of doing just these things: slogging through the grind, all day, the same quests over and over, hundreds of times to the point where we know evety little detail such that some have attained such gamer nirvana that they can literally play these games blindfolded.

Do these people have any idea how many controllers have been smashed, systems over heated, disks and carts destroyed 8n frustration? All to latter be referred to as bragging rights?

**********ATTENTION!**********
Hello fellow user of 4chan's video games board. It looks like you have entered a VIRAL MARKETING thread.
Do not worry we will sort this out right quick!

>Viral Marketing?
Yes, my good anon. This board is under attack by people being paid by Ubisoft to stir shit, create controversy, and shitpost in an attempt to garner free advertising and media coverage. Advertising is, as you surely know, against the rules of this site. It is also generally regarded here as a dirty trick publishers pull when they want easy money without having to make a good game. Here are a few things to keep in mind:
-First appearance of the petition on /v/ only had a few signatures.
-Before the petition the threads were dying thanks to anons like yourself telling the marketeers to fuck off however Ubisoft took a day off to devise this petition and came back in full force.
-Multiple media outlets reported on this controversy before the petition had any substantial number of signatures.
-Most of the posts are low-quality and have the intent to bait
-In addition the marketeers seem keen on making the discussion about politics on /v/ which is OFF TOPIC

These people honestly think this is a battle they can win? They take our media? We're already building a new one without them. They take our devs? Gamers aren't shy about throwing their money else where, or even making the games our selves. They think calling us racist, mysoginistic, rape apologists is going to change us? We've been called worse things by prepubescent 10 year olds with a shitty head set. They picked a fight against a group that's already grown desensitized to their strategies and methods. Who enjoy the battle of attrition they've threatened us with. Who take it as a challange when they tell us we no longer matter. Our obsession with proving we can after being told we can't is so deeply ingrained from years of dealing with big brothers/sisters and friends laughing at how pathetic we used to be that proving you people wrong has become a very real need; a honed reflex.

Gamers are competative, hard core, by nature. We love a challange. The worst thing you did in all of this was to challange us. You're not special, you're not original, you're not the first; this is just another boss fight.

>Oh golly gee, anon! Thanks for telling me about this but what can I do?
Oh that is very simply my friend! You just have to:
-Report Far Cry 5 threads
-Hide Far Cry 5 threads
-If you really feel the need to post, don't. But if you do use sage in the options field.
-Remember anyone talking about SJWs, /pol/, politics, the petition is a UBISOFT MARKETEER
-Anyone not calling out the thread and other posters as marketing is either a newfag who doesn't remember the marketing campaigns of years past or is a marketeer themselves. ASSUME THEY ARE MARKETING.
-This should only last until the game releases and this shitstorm blows over. It's sad that a game has to be off-limits for discussion on a video games board until well after release but thats the rub.
-Stay vigilant.

And now I have a message for the viral marketeers:
Stop viral marketing. Advertising is against the rules and politics is off topic on /v/. Go home and be a family man.

No problem, also may I ask why the accompanying Van Gogh pictures?
>>
>>378559448
No special reason. I started posting in those early threads simply saying to stop marketing and I guess it slowly evolved into van gogh. He always looks mildly annoyed.

Why does everyone talk about Ubishit? Their games were always mediocre shit and they're one of the most liberal companies ever. Of course they do liberal propaganda. it's their right.

What is the big deal?

>>378559657
Well keep it up, the first thing I do is look for the Van Gogh portraits in these threads.
