Just minutes before it was set to deliver its financial results for the first half of its 2025-26 fiscal year, Ubisoft mashed the brakes on the whole thing, postponing the release of its results to an unspecified future date. The company also requested that European exchange Euronext halt trading of the company's shares and bonds from November 14 until the publication of its results.

Play Symphony of the Night instead of the indie knockoff.

The indie market is just another tool to reduce people's standards.

    So it sounds like you're talking about knockoffs and not indies in general. Trying to make them equivalent ignores that the majority of game design innovation has come from indie games for many years.

    No, I'm still talking about indies in general.

    I gave 1 example because giving more isn't worth my time.

    Okay, buddy.

    Symphony was incredible for the time, but its difficulty was all over the place and pretty much becomes zero in late-game. Many, many Metroidvanias by indie developers have far surpassed SotN in quality.

    It's one of my favorite games of all time, but I understand that nostalgia plays a big part in that.

    Both are great. Here are some great indies:

    • Factorio
    • Hollow Knight
    • Subnautica
    • Celeste
    • Hades
    • Tunic

    That covers a wide range of genres, none are particularly derivative, and those are just off the top of my head.

    I play great classics all the time, but I also play great new indies.
