'The interview, which you can read in full at Ubisoft’s website, is somewhat winding and hard to follow, probably because everything Francois is saying doesn’t make sense. '
'Yesterday, they posted an interview with Tommy Francois, vice president of editorial, in an attempt to clarify their position. '
' Here’s something I can say about it with complete confidence: it will make a political statement, no matter how much they protest that it doesn’t. '
