I just want to preface this with: you’re not nearly as intelligent as you think you are, you just hold onto that trait and construct your persona around because you think it will redeem the rest of your less impressive facets.

Well, I’m not gonna lie thats pretty dumb. Never had an issue on consoles, even with Origins.

Yeah, so, I kinda wanna know how you were able to ignore the multitude of confounding factors in measuring sales within one game/series, not to mention your comparison to other games sales, and determine that DRM has no effect on profits.

I think he meant people didn’t have to get angry and campaign on Reddit and Twitter in order to get a refund, it was announced in tandem with the game shutdown.

I think it would be fine if they just made the worlds easier/faster to traverse.

You see the same shit over and over again when we have exactly zero details about how the game will actually work.

The biggest thing for me was the lack of “oomph” from your weapons (except the siege cannon thing) since you’re just using arrows as opposed to 23 cannons.

The sudden difficulty curve was a bit nice in that I felt success after beating them.

I disagree with Luke about the first four hours. It isn’t as expansive as the rest of the game, however its not nearly as regimented as the others in the series. You’re not following a fully linear path in small areas until you reach the point where you can access the rest of the world.

Agreed, or is she at least scaled up. I had Bayek at 40 and did every single thing in the game up to that point (and I think I had the Anubis sword) so I was pretty OP. Fighting with Aya at the end had me dying and restarting far too many times and it killed the momentum of the final act. She could have used a boost.

I thought it was pretty great and refreshingly adult as well. The pain of the death of their child combined with the increasing responsibility of “saving the world” as it were would obviously cause their relationship to fracture.

In Unity they were childhood sweethearts who reconnect, it was one of the only reasonable ways the Templars and Brotherhood would “unite,” even if Arno was sorta halfway out the door re: the Brotherhood.

I thought Jacob was pretty hilarious. That was a funny/enjoyable game overall, shame it was fairly forgettable.

I’ll definitely pick up DAO, I’m an Xbox gamer so I’m hoping they’ll bring back DA2 or I’ll have to resort to playing it on my iMac.

Its the best AC since Black Flag (and I loved Unity), I would place it with Black Flag and AC2 as one of the best in the series.

Origins is miles better than Syndicate and better than Unity (and I really liked Unity).

He wasn’t great in his debut, but they did make up for it a bit afterwards. I think compared to the others in the series he definitely wasn’t as lively or interesting. Definitely liked him a lot more after Revelations though.

That was what most of the game was about though, wasn’t it? Connor just doing rash things before he grew and learned to be a true assassin, one skilled enough to rebuild the North American order? By the end of the game he isn’t the same hot headed angry guy charging into battles.

Arno deserves better.
