Why people keep saying that Ubisoft is no longer a good video game company, like they were in the past?

I don't remember them being a good video game company. I never liked any of the games they made (but obviously that's subjective). I went through wikipedia for the list of their games, and only ones I found that I had ever bothered playing was Breath of Fire I/II, Myst. They've always kind of been a middling developer; I think the games I listed they were just the publisher. They release something, it's popular for a week, it gets mixed reviews, and then it falls to the wayside again.

I've never bought shit by EA or Ubisoft - not because I'm boycotting them or anything, just because their shit isn't that good. They just feel like they're lacking 'soul'. Watched plenty of friends play through Assassins Creed, and Far Cry, Rainbow 6, etc - just - never looked any good.
