The Splinter Cell remake presents Ubisoft with the difficult task of preserving its identity while bringing a modern feel to the game.
David Grivel is back to help shape the new Splinter Cell.
So I wonder what the release date will be. Probably another 3-4 years. This is good news for the splinter cell fans, Ubisoft needed this. It should be in good hands now.
I hope they go back to the first three games game style. Didn’t like the newer games that much.
Tim talks about what he’s been watching and playing along with the news from the past week, including Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, X-Men ’97, Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, the Splinter Cell Remake, Gears of War 6, old games still being popular and more!
Announced in 2021, the ground-up remake has seen little to no updates this year. Check out some possible explanations here.
The game was announced much too early, but also people were hounding Ubisoft about Splinter Cell for years, so they wanted placate them by making the announcement.
It's normal for games to "go dark", no reason to worry about it. In our age of social media and glut of releases everyone has to turn everything into a big deal if they don't get what they want immediately. Just be patient and let them develop the game.
And let's hope they don't turn it into a modern Ubishit game, packed with mundane boring filler, and ways to artificially extend the length of the game. Experience points, skill trees, resource collecting, grinding for equipment upgrades. None of that trash belongs in Splinter Cell.
We are talking about Ubisoft. Of course all that crap will be shoehorned into the game.
Old Ubisoft was amazing. Modern Ubisoft I mostly ignore these days. It's a shame because they have so much potential.
Ubisoft and remakes seen to be cursed still waiting for Prince of Persia Sands of Time
well ... one thing's positive in that ... they're using the snowdrop engine for this remake, which looks better than Ubisoft's Anvil engine.
Snow drop is a stunning engine have been used in the Division series as well will be powering the upcoming Avatar and Star Wars Outlaws
Are they? I mean, not much information is out at the moment.
LMAO what shill take is this? They used the term "Update for Modern Audiences" that means WOKE, which also means automatic failure. Watch Sam Fisher be a disabled, trans, space alien activist.
Right changes? We don't really know anything specific, all we know is that they are making changes for modern audience (which is pretty much something you would say to gain press) which can go from minor changes to making the game unrecognizable, too early to say anything yet
Considering the direction the latter half of the franchise took, I’m expecting a headshot-fest.
Upgrade the controls, not the pacing.
Let’s revisit this once we actually know what the changes are.
