Ok, great, you get your gold star for today for being an outstanding, law-abiding citizen.

Well said!

I’m gonna lazily repost what I said in a thread from a few weeks ago:

> That first episode back has a lot of, “How do I play this game? This this the crouch button? Can I crouch?” I figured it out but there was an acclimatization period.

Assassin’s Creed 3 came out in late fall 2012. I was taking a really difficult class that I needed to get an A in, so I put myself on heavily restricted gaming time throughout the semester. I jumped back into AC3 over the winter, but I lost steam after a bit and kinda gave up.

> Ubisoft and EA just seem like they are terrified of investors who demand concrete schedules, not to mention execs whose bonus structure is likely tied to meeting those schedules as well.

I have zero interest in Cyberpunk and didn’t play much of the Witcher. But I 100%’d both Spider-Mans and encountered exactly two disruptive glitches. I recall nothing of the sort in the Arkham or Infamous series. And I don’t remember a single issue in the massive Breath of the Wild.

Absolutely. AC Brotherhood was like 30 hours to fully complete and it’s one of the best in the series. And it ran pretty cleanly iirc.

> How much more can we really expect?

I don’t think this is a fair statement. I encountered little to no bugs in BotW and both Spider-Man games.

After the bugs introduced by the Yuletide event and ensuing bad press, how in the fuck did they release another seasonal event with its own set of issues?! Are they even trying to playtest? What the hell, Ubisoft.

Ha, I quit soon after Alexandria. Or rather, just lost interest. Things had already been way too drawn out.

> AAA look and feel, but mid-tier dev studio consistency = AC Valhalla.

And the warps are really unclear too. It’s not a well designed area.

Agreed. I keep going back so I’m clearly enjoying it (the world is gorgeous and it is fun I guess?) But it’s just so much. And it doesn’t warrant being so much.

Haha because it looks like gold bars! Although gold would be a terrible metal to use for armor. Tungsten makes more sense.

I’ve even been ignoring set bonuses, but now that you can wear any look maybe I’ll pay more attention.

Please, at the rate I’m going the whole Asgard section will be my first expansion.

There are too many stats anyway, and I’ve come to the conclusion that most don’t really matter that much. “Oh no, this shield is arbitrarily 2 less Block than the other one!” 

It is SUPER important. If you’re gonna give equipment different aesthetics that’s basically a stealth character creator. Please don’t lock my personal character design to core gameplay skills.
