The Ubisoft CEO made these comments in response to one caller who raised concerns over Skull and Bones price tag. Given the games heavy reliance on live service elements, the caller wondered if a free-to-play model might prove a better return on investment. Doing so could attract more players and help establish a dedicated community, while the $70 price might limit the size of Skull and Bones player base. However, Guillemot clearly disagrees.
Guillemot is going to be disappointed.

Looking it up the As mean absolutely nothing. It's just a way to say "this is a big game u guys". There's no double A or single A.

But this also means there's no quadruple A and they're pulling that term out of their ass to make the game seem like a "super big" game. It probably isn't, least not enough to give it a pretentious and completely made up term.

I appreciate that, so then it means absolutely nothing.

That's a fair point. The developers are being forced to put out a glorified beta.

Of course it uses the "Games as a Service" fraud. Welp, I didn't know enough to be interested in it anyway.

Just, no one buy Ubisoft's games. Everyone FUCKING STOP! Because until they start taking hits to the wallet over this shit, they'll keep doing it.

As an industry term, AAA game just means it's a big-budget game from a major publisher. It doesn't have anything to do with game quality. Some AAA games are mediocre to bad and some games with modest budgets and/or from small publishers can be great.

AAAA game isn't a real industry term. It's just something this Ubisoft guy is saying to try to make this game sound more impressive.
