SKILLUP's preview is fking pathetic, how is this "not bad"? You can tell that from the very beginning their goal was to create the most simpleton video game imaginable just in hopes on appealing to everyone, and when you do this, your game is on par with f2p mobile games, where any kind of complexities are automatically out of the window.
This game looks worse and worse with every showing.
ubisoft star wars now not bad after all, that's all you're saying? you're making us watch a 24 min youtube video to find out why exactly lol? low effort thread ghost. give us a timestamp where its gets good at least
Not gonna watch the vid as I already got some gameplay and just to stay fresh, I'll give it a try before I can give my final opinion. The smart thing to do Ghost is to not watch anymore gameplay if you want to remain spoiled free as possible.
I had hopes this would turn out to be at least decent since I like Massive Entertainment but the more I hear, the more it sounds like a generic Ubisoft game with a Star Wars skin.
ah well. I've been playing Jedi Survivor and i'm not sure I will need another big SW game so soon anyways

You just have to accept that videogames ain't aimed at you anymore.
Look at those wooden facial animations😁When you can't, or don't want to invest time and resources into facial animations, why the hell do you overload your game with 1000+ npc's? Learn from Fromsoft, its the correct way of doing it if you don't animate faces.

Because of a company that just like EA and their Woke Age Veilguard, are doing everything they can to please everyone, and end up pleasing no one? No, that's not how it works. There's a big difference between a company that tries to create a quality game, and adds all the mechanics that they believe make sense, and one that strips everything down so a person who've never held a damn controller could be playing it within 5 minutes. Those are usually the failures, not quality titles with depth like PoE, BG3 or ER. This simpleton game design comes from mobile shovelware, so what you meant to say is that mobile games are not aimed at me anymore. Truth is, they were never aimed at me, and i have literally never played a single mobile game on my phone, not even one. So yea, they sure as shit not for me.
I'll wait until that all-content edition is severely discounted after the expansions release.
It's a good thing Ubisoft+ exist (Game Pass equivalent) cause if not, I'd be right behind you in waiting for GOTY edition. I had to use Ubisoft+ just to play Skull & Bones as it was barebones for that game lol.
I'll wait until that all-content edition is severely discounted after the expansions release.
Is that all, in Australia the gold edition cost $170 and doesn't have everything the ultimate bundle has 🤣
From what I know, gaming in Australia sucks ass.
Don't you guys also have heavy censorship and crappy/non existing online servers ontop of those ludicrous prices? Makes it a bit surprising that so many Twitch streamers are aussies.. You seem to have good internet, at least?

Not sure how you came to the conclusion gaming sucks over here, we're not a third world country🤦♂️
Censorship isn't a problem as we have an R rating now, and even if games gets censored you can change your region on Xbox at least to the US/UK marketplace and download the game or buy a physical disk from overseas because the Series X/S is region free.
Secondly the minimum wage in Australia is over $23 dollars, so prices might seem over the top, but that's for XYZ editions and when their digital because digital games cost $20 more here for some stupid reason. So, a AAA game on disk is $89, but the real rort comes when its digital as they cost $109.
If I were to take a $100 to the US I would get $65 dollars back, and when you consider most physical games here are $89, so it actually works out slightly cheaper than what the US pay.
As for the net, well yeah its good if you live in the big smoke, but when you get out of say the Sydney area it's kinda hit and miss. I don't live in the big smoke anymore and my download speed is 30mb per second, so not crash hot, but it gets the job done.
However, reading that this game has a 'special' mode that removes yellow pathways to climb or glowing on interactable items does have me somewhat excited again.
@last_lap: Oh ok, not that bad then. Thanks for info.
Also 30mbit/s is more than fine for gaming. It's just that mobile internet is bad, but as long as you're wired (copper or fiber), should be good.
I was curious as to what reading my Series X got when I tested the connection and these were the results, which are pretty good considering my kids are using their Xbox's right now and Netflix is on, plus my Xbox of course.
The Simpsons have a lot to answer for, or maybe humanity does for believing them🤦♂️
Sure, I take everything I saw in the first 8 seasons or so for facts, but I think I actually saw it mentioned in a movie recently.
From what I read it's that in the Northern hemisphere, it moves clockwise. In the Southern hemisphere, it moves counter clockwise. On the equator, water goes straight down.
Isn't it sexist that they only tend to do this with female models and never with male models?
For example here's aloy
And here's cal kestis
Make the male actors fugly as well, or stop doing it only to females
is what I'm saying.
It is sexist as f*ck. And i can pretty much guarantee that if all the big streamers called it out, it would put so much pressure on these studios that they'd stop making fugly female characters pretty much instantly. All these studios are scared af from being called sexist, homophobic, anti trans, etc

I'm not saying mobile games are aimed at you. I'm saying publishers are supposedly trying to reach out to an untapped market.
