The twitter blow up is stupid. Any press, regardless if it's negative, is good press for ubisoft. Ubisoft doesn't care about the twitter movement, and people doing the twitter hashtag movement are stupid. The only way Ubisoft will care is if people actually don't buy the game. Not sure if the twitter movement will do that. Ubisoft will ONLY listen to the consumer's wallet.
Start a new hashtag #boycottACUnity

If anything can be taken from this gen, it should be that that statement is complete BS. Bad press is bad press. And sometimes you cannot recover from it. Just look at the situation the XBO is in. If anything, the Twitter blow up will inform more people, which may lead to them not purchasing the game. Same thing happened with DRM and mandatory Kinect.

The Unity parity situation is no where near as big as MS DRM and Kinect. They are also two completly different scenarios. The failure of DRM and Kinect was becuase it was anticonsumer and was too confusing for the consumer.
I see this Unity debacle a lot like how people say they're going to boycott every COD game becuase of a lack of dedicated servers. Few gamers refuse to buy the game while the casuals (The majority) buy the game in masses. AC while see no huge loss in sales due to this resulotion parity.

Did I say it was on the same level? No. What I said is bad news is in fact bad news. And if a company doesn't do its best to get rid of it ASAP, it can stay with them for months/years.
And this is pretty anti-consumer (if you bought a PS4), since its pretty obvious that the PS4 has enough power to run this game at 1080p if the XBO can pull it off at 900p. Either that or the game better be MUCH better looking on the PS4 if they are going for the same res and FPS. Of course, we both know they will be around the same graphic quality. This is a dev purposely gimping a game to reach parity. That's a horrible practise to support, one that seems to be new to console gaming this gen.

The COD fans complained every year, but COD sold well for many years. So Activision just kept doing their thing. I doubt Ubisoft will care about people getting mad about parity as long as they don't lose sales.
