Thats not exactly the whole story Rai, read some of the articles that they claim were the ones that caused the problems.
http://kotaku.com/leaked-documents-reve ... 1481322956they post literal development documents for Fallout 4 in this one, the issue isnt even that the setting got leaked, thats nothing.
http://kotaku.com/next-years-big-assass ... 1665343788and in this one they detail a development video that was a presentation of what that AC game was supposed to be, here was ubisofts response.
It is always unfortunate when internal assets, not intended for public consumption, are leaked. And, while we certainly welcome anticipation for all of our upcoming titles, we're disappointed for our fans, and our development team, that this conceptual asset is now public. The team in our Quebec studio has been hard at work on the particular game in question for the past few years, and we're excited to officially unveil what the studio has been working on at a later date. In the meantime, our number one priority is enhancing the experience of Assassin's Creed Unity for players.
Its not like kotaku is doing what everyone else is doing, and just announcing and writing out what information they have found they are detailing the format of what they have found, and expose what only the developers were intended to see. Timing and situation is key for games to be successful and certain details coming out too early can cause problems for the success of a game. Its just really unfortunate that these leaks happen from time to time, and if a dev drops a hint that journalists have gone too far, they should respect that and dis-continue that behavior. Kotaku plays dirty, they play dumb, and I dont know why anyone would side with a gaming journalism site when a AAA dev that has made amazing games enjoyed by millions chooses to discontinue relations with their dev because of situations like this.
Remember, Gaming journalism is a sub-industry of an actual real industry, kotaku cannot exist with out first there being the game industry, its laughable they try to complain about developers in this manner, they have no respect and they should know better than to have done some of that stuff its just a matter of common sense and knowing morally "I shouldnt post confidential developer documents unless they themselves posted it first" its not theirs to post in the first place.
