Assassin's Creed thread

Are they all getting paid or are they appreciating someone holding their hand for the first 5 hours of a game?

Steam still has that 2 hour refund I think.

Naoe had two female love interests and one male option.

The "male" option is an extremely effeminate guy with a ponytail whos most notable trait is that he's an illiterate retard.

His personal quest is about him wanting to read a book but he can't because he's illiterate so Naoe has to get Yasuke to read it to him.

Did they ever release any statistics for what romances the players picked in the earlier games? I hope to god the top options are Yasuke being a huge homosexual and Naoe getting dicked down by a low value male

It wouldn't be very reliable for Odyssey as you can basically just fuck everything on legs without limits. I suppose you technically had to choose in Valhalla but I imagine most players went for your brother's wife.(yes really) IIRC the only other female option was a pajeet hunter or something.

Sidenote: female Eivor is canon so you have to put up with dudes constantly hitting on your character. God I hate Ubisoft.

This is a core Assassin's Creed problem as the RPG elements basically destroy any previous skill ceiling or skill floor by replacing them with RPG elements for no real reason

I feel like I was one of the only people in my friend group that thought Origins was a bad fucking sign from the get-go.

I wonder if the game would have ranked as high if it would have been a walking simulator with 10 hour long cutscenes to explain the origin story of the little boy.

Only if the boy was a troon or gay.

I don't mind the idea of a skill tree in theory but there's shit that should always be part of your core kit from the start and not locked away. Like one tap assassinations and the mobility/parkour stuff.

The ability to assassinate from stealth is an absolute must in an AC game.

If they catch me and can grab the hidden blade to prevent a one-tap, fine, that's my punishment for breaking stealth, but if I can't kill a guy by jamming a foot long knife through his neck because he's 4 levels above me that shit is unacceptable.

The parkour stuff I can give a little leeway for the sake of progression like not getting falling wall-grabs or back-ejects until a certain point, but the basic ability to navigate the environment quickly and effectively is obviously necessary.

AC Shadows sold so well that Ubisoft is going sued so that they sell the entire company to Tencent for 4b instead of the weird shadow company thingie they did..

Chuds owned.

 

[30+GameOvers]

Ubisoft is starting to shut down studios. Are the chuds owned yet?

 

[Gilgamesh!]

AC Shadows sold so well Ubislop just shut down the studio that worked on the game. This is a sure sign of success.

Chuds owned.

Ubisoft Quebec worked on AC Shadows. Ubisoft Leamington shut down. They worked on Star Wars Outlaws.

This is not to say you are incorrect. It is just good to have the facts straight.

They will soon follow, and if not we will see layoffs. Remember, Tencent is in charge of Assassin's Creed IP now, if they say they're not going to approve of another big project unless Ubisoft downsizes studios that made the previous entries(ie get rid of retarded diversity hires), what is Ubisoft going to do about it? Just stop making Assassin's Creed games to keep the useless hires?

Have you met the astonishingly stupid retards running Ubisoft?

My point exactly, this is going to be the easiest organ harvesting operation China has ever done because Ubisoft will do all the hard work of destroying the company for them! Tencent won't even be blamed for a damn thing, if anything people will praise them for "saving" the company.

If you get stabbed in the gut and begin to bleed out, you're gonna get dizzy and light headed and some numbness in your extremities even if they're not what got initially stabbed.

Don't worry, they will get them later. Outlaws was just the first major flop, so it makes sense that team gets cut first.

I feel like I was one of the only people in my friend group that thought Origins was a bad fucking sign from the get-go.

Origins came at a time when the franchise needed a core shakeup badly, and a Witcher 3 clone with parkour and stealth wasn't a terrible idea or incredibly overdone at the time.

Origins also had a kino setting and that marketing guy who made them make Bayek the player character still in charge, so the story was okay.

Everyone who made Origins good got metoo'd right after though, so it explains why every game that came after that was just worse and worse.

China owns AC now, chud! That's good for us even though we spent the last five years crying about games like Wukong! That means we win!

Curious to see what will become of Hexe if China deal goes through. That game is reportedly supposed to be the queerest most lesbian feminist game Ubisoft has ever created, involving lots of black magic and witches, which is apparently essential to feminist storytelling now.

All according to plan. Wasn't it said somewhere that Tencent were the ones who encouraged Yasuke as a playable character for Japanese AC? Not that the French cucks needed much convincing I'm sure. Absolute 4D chess move on their part. Kind of funny.

If you get stabbed in the gut and begin to bleed out, you're gonna get dizzy and light headed and some numbness in your extremities even if they're not what got initially stabbed.

Is this why those little tummy pokes you'd give guys in the early games were instant killers even though you'd probably live for a long time after getting stabbed in the stomach once by a tiny knife?

Those stomach/back stabs are supposed to sever the victims spine, so they lose consciousness almost immediately and bleed out. The assassin also usually put their other hand on the persons mouth so they can't scream when it happens.

Well the backstabs in 1-Revelations always looked like it went up through the heart, but the tummy stabs seem pretty absurd if they're supposed to be severing the spine.

 

[ZMOT]

You can get more complex then "Italian Man fights a dinosaur" without ruining the player's ability to be in control - something that a lot of games manage without constant forced "walk and talk" segments/cutscenes.

that are just 2 extremes, technically even super mario bros has non-interactive scenes. there isn't an industrial or international standard that it's only allowed in a certain amount etc.

in the end it's a completely moot point because there will ALWAYS be games covering broad areas, there will literally never a time we'll only get exclusively sony movieslop or super mario bros.
