It was the right call
I kinda get how you feel, yes, it's been a rough year and we could use some good news, however, now is not the time, the current situation needs to be resolved before we can go back to better things.
We've had it bad this year, but there are tons of people who have had it bad for decades and that deserves more attention than news about something we're not getting until late December at earliest. This is a minor inconvenience at worst, we...
You need to stop assuming Assassins Creed is ever going to make sense or have historical accuracy again. It's a fantasy action rpg at this point, with stealth as an optional feature.
Boba Fett: a bounty hunter game might be fun, but not sure if I honestly care about Boba enough to be interested. Never understood why people hype him up so much... I'd rather see a bounty hunter game where you make your own character and hunt targets, maybe even team up with friends, sorta like Monster Hunter World.
Jyn Erso: Honestly have no opinion about her, barely remember what she was like, don't think a game would work out.
Admiral Ackbar: ...
@fr0sty I think he meant that the overall mechanics and idea are fun, but with the "story" they gave us and the extremely repetitive missions, the game falls short. The flying and combat did feel really smooth, and the environment was absolutely gorgeous. So yeah, gameplay was fun, but not enough to last long.
So yes, Bioware fucked up, but there is definitely potential. Am I still upset with them? Yeah, but this is one of those rare cases where I really wanna see...
@Segata the "literal dozen" playing the game hardly counts as support. Talking shit about Anthem at this point is neither going to change EA's practices nor push them to improve Anthem.
But DLC IS a thing, Final Mix is an obsolete concept, bringing them up as an argument is pointless, and has nothing to do with what people are complaining about.
The issue is the pricing of the DLC. It doesn't matter if in the past we would have had to pay for a whole new game, that is not something we need or should have to think about today. Based on the content, Re:Mind should be 15$ at most.
Why waste time talking shit about Anthem? Seriously, we all know it was a letdown by now, let the ones who keep playing it have their fun.
It's a DLC, ofc it's not full price. And yet, the content they add doesn't come even close to being worth 30$
It's a cash grab, and a really fucking dirty move by SE. Also, you can't keep comparing to Final Mix, those are from a time when DLC wasn't a thing, they are obsolete. The only way to bring new content back then was to release a new edition of the game.
But since you like comparisons, let's compare to Witcher 3 eh?
KH3...
And Square Enix wants us to pay 30$ for that? :'D
Too bad the main game was too boring for me to even finish, so I had no interest in buyng the dlc where apparently all the good stuff was...
Man you're thick, Re:Mind is not a full game...
Don't forget FFXIV expansions, which are the same price as Re:Mind, but are basically full length games
Yeah no, this is not a Final Mix, it's a DLC, and the pricetag should reflect the content, in this case 15-20$
It's really amazing how they can mess up like this, and at the same time do things so right with FFXIV. They release expansions with the same pricetag as KH3 dlc, yet the expansions are like full length games in themselves, there are additional "episodes" in the expansions, but they're included in the price.
@wwintwerj That's no excuse, we're not talking about a final mix now, it's not a full game, this is a DLC, and the price should reflect the content. From what we've seen, the DLC is not worth 30-40$
I mean it barely counts as being an assassin game these days. In early AC games, if you were facing more than 3 enemies head on you were dead meat. You had to actually sneak around and be tactical with your approach. In newer games you can just run into a camp with 20 soldiers and take them down like they're nothing. And as much as I love fantasy rpg's, flashy elemental weapons and mythological monsters should not be a part of AC. Fantasy/mythology aspects have always had a role in AC...
True, maybe I'm just bitter because it used to be a fun stealth game that actually rewarded you for being creative with your approach and tried to be historically accurate. Now they're trying to be a fantasy rpg, filled with MT:s, where you can casually jump in the middle of a mob and take down your enemies like any generic hack-and-slash. Story-wise they haven't done anything interesting since Black Flag. But maybe that's just me...
Let Assassin's Creed die, kill it if you have to
Me in 2000 would never have believed there would be a day when there are more games than I'd have time to play :'D
I would say read the news.... but knowing how poorly this is being reported globally, I don't blame you.
Basically a cop ended up killing George Floyd, a black man who was arrested, cuffed and on the ground and wasn't threatening anyone, yet the cop in question, Derek Chauvin, insisted on pressing his knee on his neck, ending up in George Floyd dying. This event served as a tipping point and lead people starting to protest, demanding justice and rights for black people, and ...
