I, and a few others, were trying to call this from the beginning. The hate that the game was getting via all of the pre-release content seems warranted.
There's little doubt at this point that you saw, pretty much, only the reviews EA wanted you to see.
There's no roleplaying in this RPG. The combat, while action-oriented, is shallow and gets boring fast. Social politics are crammed down your throat. The art design has been deemed terrible, and that's a...
You realize this is being handled by Nixxies, right? A studio of high clout, known for being a great support studio, great at handling PC ports of console releases as well. This is a veteran studio that Sony acquired not long to be doing just as they are now.
This wasn't a training exercise. This just seems to be what Sony will be doing with their releases going forward. Sell it, wait a few years, pretty it up, sell it again.
My personal favorite in the series is 4, so I'd really like to see that. But, realistically, it's going to be the original or 3, or 2 remake may have been a one off thing. I'd say the first is most deserving, being it's the most archaic, but time will tell. Konami is definitely going to capitalize on the success of 2 remake in some way.
I'll stick with Payday 2 lol
All great games, honestly. Though, I did feel The Devil In Me was the worst game that Supermassive has put out.
Because why sell it once when there are those out there that will buy it again a few years later?
I thought it was good, but I did get tired of it, and shelved multiple times before actually finishing it. Never felt the need to play it again. Never felt the need to buy the sequel.
... because it was a remake ... and it was good?
I hope the game doesn't even make back the development costs, honestly.
The last Ubi games I actually bought were DIvision 1/2, AC Syndicate, Far Cry 5, and Immortals Fenyx Rising. I buy their games, but they are few and far between. They almost never interest me in the slightest.
I played through Alien Isolation, Silent Hill 4, and the original Outlast throughout the week. Not big on Halloween, itself, but I do make a point to still keep it horror month.
If this ends up being rated anything but R ..
But, but, but ... all PC players do is pirate games /s
I was bored after about 2 hours lol
Wasn't aware this was an issue ..

If the game got a bad first reception, that's never a good sign. We'll see what happens going forward.
Just here to remind people you can emulate all these classics on a potato laptop, and even some other consoles. You don't need to pay a subscription service monthly just to play some classic games you've probably already bought in the past.
Dragon Age 2 to had a choice book for those who couldn't, or didn't want to, import a previous save. It was pretty in-depth and added a lot of nuance to the game. Inquisition had the affects of Dragon Age 2 reflective of both, as well as the main character Hawk come through and be well aware of the politics that has been put in place over the last two games.
Both sequels you were able to fully upgrade your team to your liking.
This game is just built diff...
Legitimate low interest in what Concord offered tanked Concord.
No agenda involved.
People didn't like the characters, and the gameplay was mid. They had loads of competition, that didn't charge you $40, to go against. The game was dead in the water, as per most looking at what it was doing, and Sony still spent hundreds of millions on it.
This was a giant L for management.
Fanatical coming in hard again.
Prices you'll only ever find on PC.
