HawlSera, do games w Just finished my first playthrough of Prey by Arkane Studios and WOW.

Try the 2006 version of Prey next

JackDark,

Seriously! Every time I see something about Prey and it’s not the 2006 version, I’m annoyed.

HawlSera,

I’m just amazed that prey 2006 is still hilariously cheap on those gray Market sites, cuz that’s the only way to get it now

One day I’ll give the game with the same name an actual shot, because I’m sure it’s good on its own merits, but it will always be a reminder that Prey 2. The REAL Prey 2 was stolen from us

JackDark,

Every so often I watch that gameplay trailer for Prey 2 and make myself sad.

HawlSera,

Never forget what they stole from you

wccrawford,

Yeah, when the new Prey came out I was very, very confused for a while.

I ended up liking the game, but I didn’t find it as interesting as the original.

HawlSera,

I felt personally attacked when this game was not only blowing up in popularity, but the original was taken off of steam and seemingly memory holed

that game was trippy.

I’ve spent a truly mind blowing amount of time on MissionChief. They don’t give exact stats, but I’d say I’ve played at least 2k hours over the last 4 years

I replay candybox/candybox 2 at least once a year. Fantastic incremental ascii games

I had a list of some flash games I used to obsess over, but I can’t find it right now. I’ll throw Sonny 2 as my recommendation, I beat that game many times and I still come back to it every now and then. It’s a top-tier RPG.

I would also recommend Gemcraft and Bloons TD, but they have premium sequels now that are way better than the web games.

Despite having a pretty mediocre rating it seems like if you enjoyed the older assassin’s creed games, this one is pretty close. Many reviewers argue that the old AC gameplay of following NPCs and blending in hasn’t aged that well, though.

a_fine_hound,

I wouldn’t say 76 is a mediocre score. Just looking at Opencritic of this year, the median score on PS5 is 73, so AC Mirage is at least better than the median. Now, I know game scores are skewed horrendously and barely any outlet uses full scale (more like half of it at most), but still 70 is probably closer to an idea of mediocre. It’s all subjective though, but it is fun to try and make sense of it all

I always thought Assassin‘s Creed should be more like Hitman where you really wanna avoid conflict, find an opening, and, well, assassinate your target. The farther the series went, the more it felt like Brawler‘s Creed where you just butt heads with half a dozen guards all too frequently.

More focus on assassination, planning, conflict avoidance, gadget usage, stealth, and no run-off-the-mill guards that follow you up buildings like olympic athletes, all of this in a historical setting with some illuminati BS spice and I‘d be super happy. But it‘s a lot to ask. Just some random, tired thoughts on my experience with the series.

Honestly, even with the meh scores, this entry interests me the most since Unity from what I’ve been hearing this far.

Do I need to play any other before? I’ve stopped on AC2 because I didn’t like the direction the games were taking.

obbelusk,

If you thought the games went in the wrong direction after 2 I wouldn’t think this game would be a good fit from what I’ve read. The story has become very complicated during the 16 years since the first one. Might be worth watching a recap on Valhalla to understand who Basim is. It’s probably fine to jump in without it though.

tvbusy, do gaming w At which level you are at candy crush saga ?

I’m at the level called “never bothered to try”.

ChaoticNeutralCzech,

That’s the ground floor but the elevator only goes down and people don’t seem to notice the minus sign.

Damn, every single reviewer is salty that an Assassin’s Creed game turned out to be an Assassin’s Creed game. I bet not a single one of them finished the game before penning their reviews.

Wumbologist,

I could see that. I loved playing them as a kid, but I never really enjoyed the tailing missions. I think they could take some inspiration from the Hitman series. I always thought that series had the assassin gameplay nailed better than AC.

Penpal5036,

Thank you for these posts on lemmy

I remember a time when I would finish an AC game in like one weekend, but after black flags the series just became boring. Seems like open world slop is what ubisoft is going for.

Assassin’s Creed Mirage doesn’t have anything exciting or new to offer. It’s a mixture of the worst parts of classic and modern Assassin’s Creed

without a doubt, it is the sharpest, most succinct entry in the franchise yet. With the best elements brought together throughout the series’ many games

The duality of man.

HerbalGamer, do games w Assassin's Creed Mirage Review Thread | (76/100 OpenCritic)

I didn’t really enjoy the older games but had a blast with odyssey and Valhalla. I wonder what this game does for me in that case.

simple,

You probably won’t like it then.

hogunner,

Same. Unless I hear otherwise I’ll probably skip this one as, like you, I enjoyed the recent direction of the last 3 installments more than previous ones.

JonTheKnight, do games w Assassin's Creed Mirage Review Thread | (76/100 OpenCritic)

I was wondering how a DLC turned full-release would turn out for them. I haven’t played an AC game since Black Flag, but I was hoping this might have gotten me interested again, especially with them returning to the classic style of the originals. Nothing I’ve seen from reviews or video gameplay feels compelling to me about it.
