Does anyone really give a shit about Assassin's Creed anymore? Like, Black Flag was cool, but everything else since then has been gay not pirate stuff.
Also watched about 55 seconds of that new syndicate gameplay video and turned it off. Remember when the Assassins vs Templars conflict was this secret war that dictated course of history that no one but those involved knew about? Video starts with three assassins loudly talking about the war in a pub. Laughed out loud and closed the vid right there. |

The "build your own crime syndicate/family" is an interesting concept. If it's something along the lines of The Godfather games or some other old school mafia games, I MIGHT be tempted to grab it.

Exactly my thoughts it felt like the story and gamplay weren't really going anywhere I remember a moment where I asked myself is any of this really worth the money?
The answer was no. Started at 2 and quit after black flag. Played none of the side games I MIGHT(I stress might) look into it if they ever go to Japan but I'm bored with and done with AC for the foreseeable future. |

Been arguing that shit for years. Apparently I take things too seriously and should stop being an elite fuck boy. But here we are. Games are shit. Master game designers are leaving and going indy in droves. Good stuff are few or given out in less and less quantity filling out with DLC 'expansions'. And people just aren't enjoying themselves anymore while not knowing what exactly went wrong with gameplay.
But I don't wanna take it too seriously. |

I think you need to do the same. Maybe I'm wrong, but I feel like I only see you playing the big titles run by giant publishers that are responsible for all of your ire. I think you need to take a break and play stuff like Ori and the Blind Forest once in a while. If only to appreciate that there are still people making this stuff who actually care about the industry. You should buy Ori and the Blind Forest anyway because it's fucking rad. |
