I am all for sponsered YouTube videos every time a new game comes out, but when about a dozen of channels on a single day are sponsering the same game it is ridiculous and makes me not want to play the game from overexposure.

Not a lot else to say to this one, just something that was on my mind. Don't overexpose your game, Ubisoft.

any examples? Im old school so not in the loop with this youtube stuff.

The only one of the top of my head is DidYouKnowGaming, IGN.

Youtube Gaming and other online Video services have become an integral part of publisher marketing budgets these days.

Well, it looks like they're really betting on it then. They are right tho, this is one of their last praised franchises and it sells amazingly well. Hopefully they keep the 2 year cycle and don't turn it into an annual thing.

I saw JonTron's video earlier today. Anyways, I'm not sure what constitutes good preorder numbers, but it sure looks like Far Cry Primal is bombing in that regard, relative to everything else. It's actually more interesting looking than anything Ubisoft's made in the last 5+ years. What a shame.

their money, wouldnt be surprised if its all burned

I'm sure Ubisoft is unsure of this title. Considering the weird setup (prehistorical times) I'm sure they think the guns and explosion audience might not become interested on it. So they need to push it more than usual.

In my YouTube circle they did this with FC4 so this isn't exactly new. This time they're not editing the videos in post though so it's a little better.

so.... fuck ubisoft for marketing Farcry?
