I’ve stared from Black flag up until Odyssey, then I went back the Ezio Trilogy.

At firt the Ezio games seemed janky and unpolished, but boy was I wrong. The percieved “jankiness” was due to the fact that you have actual control over the character, which can be difficult at first but extremely rewarding later in the game(s), with tombs and catacombs that feel like actual puzzles to traverse, nothing like the “parkour on rails” of ACIV. Unity’s parkour really felt like a step in the right direction, but players complained about it being a broken and rushed game and somehow Ubi understood that they needed to turn AC into The Witcher.

As for the present time story arc I think they really nailed it with Desmond. I love games that take real world history as a base and add a fictional twists to it, and the sense of uncovering an actual, worldwide conspiracy and the origins of humankind itself was there.

I understand they’ve acknowledged the fact that people don’t play AC for the present time story arc, but there was no reason to let it die in irrelevance from ACIII onwards. Layla’s arc might be a slight step towards the right direction, but we’re still far, far away.

This is all to say that yes, I agree with you. This series had (and still has) so much potential, but it was unfortunately hijacked by corporate greed time and time again, straying further from the original concept as time goes on.

I’m currently playing valhalla and plan on tackling ACIII next, and then Mirage.

Where our golds at though? Kind strangers, this way!

Op does not seem neither belligerent nor antagonistic to me. Maybe rude in their initial statement, but they’ve been interacting with the comments in a perfectly civil way.

Most definitely not an “awful example to set” in any way.

Motherfuckers really will downvote a non-stupid question on !nostupidquestions

He’s playing through Mario & Luigi: Bowser Inside Story right now! I’m really enjoying it

Source?

Yeah. The game’s incipit is (spoilers ??? Literally the first five minutes of the game) >!Wukong just wants to chill on his mountains, but the other gods fear him and kick his ass. Decades, centuries or maybe millennia has passed, and now you, a monke from his village (arguably his reincarnation), are tasked with finding a way to reawaken him!<

It’s a good action with some souls mechanics (not a soulslike though), crazy good graphics, bosses and enemy variety. Should also be decently optimized for pc

Plot wise is basically a fan sequel of Journey to the west. If you aren’t familiar with that don’t expect to understand shit about what’s going on.

The only real tangible issue is mediocre map design (very simplistic and linear) and (some say) some balancing issues.

In short, if you enjoy 3d actions and/or souls you’ll probably have you money’s worth.

Welcome!

Because you need people to build a community, and like it or not, most people are on discord

There are other reasons but I think this is the main one

Why not? If it’s the best game of the year in multiple categories why deny its merits and penalize it for it?

Last but not least, yes, we are in development on the next chapter – The Elder Scrolls VI. Even now, returning to Tamriel and playing early builds has us filled with the same joy, excitement, and promises of adventure.

So still no updates on TES6 then. Saved you a click I guess

Very fun game, I’ve been into it for a while and really enjoyed watching gameplay. Unfortunately i grew tired of it before the sales, and I ended up not buying it

What’s the mod?

Is it just me or very few games support FSR3? Which is a shame, it looks amazing on paper

Nintendo sniffs the smell of blood

Edit: fuck Nintendo, this is actually super cool

Amazing game, will be playing it for sure

Something like https://f-droid.org/packages/org.catrobat.paintroid/

The first fantasy life is super cozy. Very excited for the sequel

Interesting. Thanks for sharing
