manapropos, do games w [Skill Up] I do not recommend: Assassin's Creed Mirage

The last good AC game I can think of was Brotherhood so this review isn’t exactly a surprise

vaultdweller013,

Eh, black flag and rogue were pretty fun.

Globulart,

As was origins honestly. Brotherhood is definitely my favourite and the later games feel more generic than true AC games, but they’re still good fun.

vaultdweller013,

Id even say that unity despite the bad press and how buggy it was is still in the overall good category.

Khrux,

Unity spent a long time being unplayable in an are where that was unforgivable than it is now. I picked it up just before the big patch where they also threw in the first DLC for free as an apology and I ran pretty well on my device, but nobody cared because nobody was playing it.

I feel it also had a pretty lackluster story, I opened strongly but generally but then just became blander as it progressed. I really wanted to like the characters, but they never landed for me.

The last game that I feel had a great plot was black flag, largely because everything since origins has been enormous in scope in a way that’s just directly detrimental to a linear cutscene style story. Also as historical RPGs they’re good but Assassin’s Creed has something really special that has been forgotten, and I was hoping this game would reignite it, but it seems not.

vaultdweller013,

Fair enough, though I do think the overall gameplay of unity was pretty fucken good.

Khrux,

I used to boot it up and just play through that one repeatable painting heist that was optionally 4 player, although I’d do it by myself.

dwokimmortalus,

Origins grew on me as it’s own game, but I hated it as an assassins creed game.

I personally found the next two extremely boring, but I can still replay origin and enjoy it.

manapropos,

I really enjoyed the naval combat of black flag but it takes like 5 hours to get good. And the modern day parts of the game are even more of a slog

In the style of the time, are they just deleting the old one and slapping a “2” on a questionable overhaul?

Looks exactly like the first one. Which was fun I must say!

Drbreen, do games w Thief Simulator 2 | out now

Looking forward to trying this out. That being said, it’s time Eidos/CDE picked up the Thief IP again…

As neat as it would be, I don’t think they could do it justice. Is the Thief IP really that valuable that a person couldn’t just make a generic dark fantasy game about being a thief?

Drbreen,

Surely you’re not comparing the scope of the Thief IP to something like this? It’s more than one person or even ten could make.

Mononon, do games w Game Maker's Toolkit: The World Design of Banjo-Kazooie

One day I need to get around to trying Banjo Tooie. I’ve always wanted to at least give it a shot. I finished Yooka Layler, so surely it can’t be that bad.

smeg,

It’s really good. Pretty laggy if you’re playing on original hardware though!

MrScottyTay, do games w [Skill Up] I do not recommend: Assassin's Creed Mirage

The series died with Desmond. They were building up to something in the present day and then just fucked it all off with no payoff. And then proceeded to not replace it with anything. Where’s the ongoing storyline to hook me in to continue playing? 4’s playtester double agent was cool for a little bit but not enough to keep me interested and they never got it to a point where I wanted to know more after the credits rolled. The series ended for me there, when they confirmed Desmond was just a brain in a jar now, fuelling abstergo’s games.

Even if it would be the best AC of all times I wouldn’t get it because I really dislike the protagonist.

tdawg, do games w Assassin's Creed Mirage - Official Basim and Roshan Interview & Gameplay

Honestly I’m just shocked people still buy these games

manapropos,

The vast majority of gamers have shit taste. That’s why franchises like AC, COD, and everything EA sports has done in the last 10 years continue to sell despite continuously getting worse

This game has such a killer soundtrack. Only game that I’ve had where the songs have made it into my daily playlist.

Sharpiemarker,

Sounds like you need recommendations for games with great soundtracks!

@woelkchen@lemmy.world avatar

That’s the expansion by the Voidpoint people who didn’t leave a good impression with some of their hurtful “jokes”. Personally, I’m not looking forward to it but it’s the closest thing to a new Duke3D, so some people might be interested.

Ganbat, (edited )

Apparently I’m out of the loop, what happened?

Edit: Got to a point that I could look it up. My favorite part is where the devs felt so strongly about their god given right to call people f**s that they said people should just pirate the game instead. Awesome. Not completely disgusting at all.

Still Build engine, so I’m going to pass on this opportunity.

That’s my childhood your insulting there, I have many fond memories of opening up Build and making maps and mods.

Same here because the map editor was relatively easy to get into but Build engine always felt off to me.

innocentpixels,

Yooo that’s crazy they said that on stream

UnpopularBrainRot,

As always all gaming drama is so stupid and overblown, just like the wizard game… I loved the first one, if people try to boycott this over some past controversy I’ll buy extra copies to gift to friends LMAO.

echo64,

Are you like this in real life? or just a weirdo on the internet. If you act like this in reality I’m just gonna warn you right now that everyone you know doesn’t like it, they think it’s weird.

UnpopularBrainRot,

Bold of you to assume what I or my friends are like irl, but I’ll tell you they are not oversensitive snowflakes triggered by mere words (in the context of this game controversy), and I’m sure that from this you already think I am every *phobe and *ism in the book so think what you will I don’t care.

Are they triggered by being able to select their pronouns in a game? The language used here suggests they are.

echo64,

I’m gonna assume you aren’t. You just act like a normal person away from the keyboard. This is like a cosplay bit you do because of too much youtube

Honestly had no idea they still updated it

9715698,

It released 4.5 years ago, so not quite 5 years but still surprised Ubisoft has supported it for this long.

maxprime,

They also announced division 3 is coming after they ship the star wars game.

Did anyone actually watch the video?

It’s extremely tongue in cheek.

sugar_in_your_tea, do games w Razed: Visual Redemption – RDR 2 Graphics Trailer

IDK, it kinda loses that “old west” feel imo. It looks nice, but I don’t think it feels as fitting for the time period it’s set in, but maybe that’s just be after watching lots of movies set in the time period.

clay_pidgin, do games w RoboCop: Rogue City | Pre-Order Trailer

Don’t pre-order games, people.

SatansMaggotyCumFart,

But this time it’ll be different!

Son_of_dad, (edited )

Pre orders aren’t even the biggest issue in gaming now, for me it’s game tiers, where a game releases with 3 different editions, with the most expensive one being like $150. Which means the actual game is $150 and the lower editions are just incomplete copies.

clay_pidgin,

An extremely good point. What a dirty practice.
