I disagree. Ubisoft has been very consistently trash for a while.
Not really, look at anno for example. Its just the big titles that are regarded as not good.
Their current Monopoly game is infamously bad
OK, but who gives a shit about a monopoly game? Either play it like a normal person, when drinking with friends or don’t.
I’ve watched huge vtubers play it multiple times and every single time the game ends early from a crash. Or the game accidentally bankrupts a player. It’s bad publicity
HM… Yeah thats Bad publicity.
But that never happened to me, and I played both games for over 200 hours each. I even played them on Linux through emulation and it didn’t happen.
Yea, I mean Watchdogs 2, The Division, Steep, I know some friends loved For Honor and R6: Siege is amazing (idk how the game looks today tho with all the updates they made).
Seems people tend to see ubisoft as AC and FarCry only.
Some people love to shit on ubisoft when others are way worse.
1602 was the best Anno. Fight me.
OK, I personally think 1404 with the interesting and challenging campaign including the Venice dlc was the top, afterwards I think 1800 is the next best. My most controversial opinion is that both 2070 and 2205 where good and well made games, with some flaws of course but that doesn’t mean its bad. Shure some disliked the setting and I was septic as well.
Never played the futuristic ones. What appealed to me with the anno games was the atmosphere of sails and settlers.
They bring that atmosphere to the future settings very well actually
just don’t buy their games. it’s that simple. go sailing.
That’s easy, you can’t buy them because according to Ubisoft you won’t own them.
If buying isn’t owning, then piracy isn’t stealing.
And that will improve the quality of the games how?
They’ll go out of business and a more competent company will arise to replace them.
It will over time. They will notice that sales are going downhill so (hopefully) they will start to listen to community complains, maybe also firing some staff until that point because of “financial struggle”.
If sales will stay the same (or be even better) then they will not try to change anything because “if it works, don’t fix it”
It won’t but you also won’t be disappointed by it if you never play them!
Sure, but he didn’t advocate for a boycott, he talked about “going sailing” a.k.a. piracy
Assassins creed has been consistently disappointing me since Black Flag.
AC2 used to be my favourite game and the modern titles are unrecognisable. They’re all just a bunch of generic, drawn out, mass appeal, play it safe bollocks.
Unity had a rough launch, but that was the most “assassin” feeling assassin’s creed imo
Yeah, I do wonder about giving that another go.
The most upsetting thing is that they threw out anything resembling a decent narrative to draw out the series with diminishing returns. We never got closure on the templars and modern storylines are ignored now. We could have had closure and then just had everything in animus after.
It kinda bothers me that they didn’t at least go all in with switching up the story.
At this point the whole “assassin’s creed” part kinda holds the narrative and story back, I think they should just drop it entirely and have each game be its own thing.
I loved the assassin thing when I was 12, but it’s kinda cringe now.
Odyssey was pretty dam good in my opinion.
It was. Most of it’s criticism comes from the fact that it’s not really an assassin’s creed game anymore. It was mostly far cry: ancient greece
Which is not a really good criticism in my opnion. It still had a lot of the core elements of AC, they just tried some new things. And a lot of it worked out.
As in you didn’t like Black Flag, or that was the last one you did? I’m currently replaying it for the first time since it came out and it’s alright so far. I completely forgot everything from the story
Black flag was good, everything after has disappointed me in one way or another.
