"Sure, we'll make countless games based on the work of a military fetishist, all but advocate for private gun ownership in the intro to one of them, and even hijack a popular black-rights symbol to use as a herald for a terrorist organization... but we're not making any political statements, guys, honest!"Ubisoft: Far Cry 6 Is Not Trying to Make a Political Statement About Cuba - IGN

Must be the same thing -Far Cry 6's Narrative Director Says 'Our Story Is Political,' It's Just Not Focused on Cuba - IGN
While Far Cry 6 is not trying to make a political statement about Cuba specifically, the game's narrative director Navid Khavari has confirmed that the story the team is trying to tell is, in fact, political.
And now it is political.
Sure, whatever.

It's simple: They want to use political situations to make their games "interesting", but they also don't want to drive off potential sales if they start actually taking a stand on anything at all.
This happened with Battlefield V and the fanbase had a conniption fit. Everything that subsequently went wrong with the game brought jeers of "get woke, go broke".
Because they're spineless cowards that want to have it both ways. This is part, but not the main reason, why I don't support any of their games any more. They don't even try. When beat'em ups a more honest and open about their politics, then you know you've fucked up and are a waste of space.Must be the same thing -
The Politics of Far Cry 6
Far Cry 6’s narrative director Navid Khavari shares his thoughts on the politics of the game and how the development team approached its sensitive topics from the very beginning.
Idk why they can’t just own up to whatever they’re trying to do and tell everyone to piss off and play something else if they don’t like it. I know I will (be playing something else). But I still also won’t be wasting energy caring about their motives.

It seems like Ubisoft have essentially designated themselves as the industry’s pot stirrers, and then whenever things get heated want to ultimately pull the wild card of, “Hey, don’t kill the messenger.”
While it wasn't Farcry 3, I certainly know the feeling of dropping a game because the most interesting part of it got killed off (Mine was Haunting Ground's Daniella). Was self-conscious about it because it seemed like an odd reason to drop a game.

'Far Cry 5' Is Apolitical To The Point Of Absurdity
Far Cry 5 touches on every hot-button issue in America right now, yet avoids saying absolutely anything useful about any of them.
Ubisoft ‘knows its games are political’, says former creative director | VGC
“The company is knowingly trying to pretend they’re not”…
Probably because the game doesn't take place in the US? So they are more comfortable being political when it's a game about some tropical banana republic style setting. Is it an actual country? I don't even know. I just assumed it was MexiCubaragua, the fictional, non-denominational hispanic country in fiction. It does seem like their games that take place in actual, REAL places, they are more prone to pull the "not political" card to get out of criticism.
