In recent weeks, the influence of the global initiative, Stop Killing Games, has been expanding, and many people have chosen to sign relevant petitions to prevent future games from repeating the mistakes of "Courtes God" and even the recent Anthem (a work under EA) - the core goal of the initiative is, as its name suggests, to face game publishers and prevent them from "slapping" the game.

In the EU region, the petition has more than 1.39 million signatures and the situation is heating up quickly.This has also sparked doubts among lobby groups about the claim of "making games support offline play", which they claim will lead to higher costs.Now, Ubisoft CEO Yves Gillemor also expressed his views on the matter.

Gillemot said at a recent shareholder meeting that Ubisoft provides "a lot of support" for its games and "a service that ensures that the game is accessible and playable 24 hours a day."

Additionally, the CEO said Ubisoft would inform players of the duration of the game, but did not specify where the information was posted.

In addition to defending Ubisoft’s own operating model, Gillemor also mentioned that many other companies face the same game retention problem, and then explained the complexity of “permanent support for games”.

"You provide a service, but nothing is set in stone and one day the service may end. Nothing is eternal. We are doing our best to ensure that all players and buyers have a good experience because obviously, support for all games cannot last forever."

Although no game can truly last forever, the ultimate goal of initiatives like "Stop Kill Games" is to pave the way for the game's "End Support Program" so that players who have purchased the game can continue to enjoy the game.This does not necessarily mean that the publisher will continue to provide services - and this seems to be something that CEOs such as Gillemot are overlooking.
