@RSM-HQ: After they forcing online services in their games, even forcing singleplayer games online and then they turning off online aspects of games relatively too soon and thus they removing access to games everyone warns new comers about it. The guy says "I never played any Ubisoft game before, is Shadows is a good start" and people spam "don't buy the game, they remove your game from your library!!!" which tells a lot about why people wouldn't wanna buy from Ubisoft anymore, not that it's the only sin of Ubisoft as they are known for never fixing their games despite tons of people can't play the game. Who can say they won't remove Shadows this instant :DDD!!! A big aspect of why buying any Ubisoft game anymore is a bad decision is they will probably go bankrupt soon and therefore their games can't be accessed because thanks to double DRM, despite you may have bought the game on Steam you still need Ubishit shit.
Another aspect is Denuvo. The guy comes and asks "it's first time I'm using a PC but what's Denuvo", and everyone tells them "Denuvo is a poison makes you cannot play the game unless you are connected to internet and if Denuvo servers shut down say goodbye to whatever games that have Denuvo" and the new comer is like "damn son, I'll stick to playing games on my [whatever video game console] lol.
While video gaming killed they wanna raise the prices to $100. It's okay to ask whatever price but it doesn't mean you'll profit lol.
@mogan: Some of my friends who skipped Assassin's Creed since Syndicate tried Shadows, they all say the series turned into Metal Gear on nonsense long cutscenes and it's also like bad copy of Bioware games on cringy romantic character dramas going on. It's more like less gameplay, more dramatic display. Some of my friends burned their devices they played the game on, only one of them didn't refund it because she loves romantic stuff lol.
Well they should count how many people stopped playing the game and refunds too, otherwise they would be like one of those ignorant people on social media who also count bots as "my followers" and brag about it lol.
After they release offline patches for The Crew series, as why they removed developers of Saints Row, Ubishit should say "damn it's too costly to maintain our business" so they should announce a business suicide and afterwards they should develop toilet papers because it's more like in their alley. :DDD
Honestly didn't read that many negative reviews about an Assassin's Creed game since Unity. Unity's only significant fault was its bugs, however this new game itself is faulty. I also never read negative reviews bashing everything about an Assassin's Creed game before too and I exclude what Japanese people complain about. I'll take it as most of the positive reviews about the game are fake lol.
Is the quality understood as "empty game filled with empty cutscenes, characters and the illusion of something to do"? For example I prefer the massive content of GTA San Andreas over empty GTA 5 lol. In video games content matter to prevent gameplay from being dull, offer different things to do, add replay value, and increase the chance that the game will be liked by lots of people who have different personalities. For example in Assassin's Creed games there was prioritization over content therefore if you liked history you could collect items regarding it and learn about history, if you want to immerse yourself in the timeline you could do these side contents, some people like to capture areas so such side content satisfy a different kind of people. But if we had to prioritize "quality" over content then all you could do is focusing on main story, mindless gameplay, trivial character drama, drag cutscenes and few side contents then the game wouldn't be enough to satisfy lots of people, even to make a sell. For example the last Saints Row game has quality over content, therefore while the short and scarce aspect of the game is fun due to decent quality, it lacks so much content it doesn't satisfy you to waste time on the game. After the game ended I was like "is that all?". It felt like a demo rather than a full game.
Long story short, in video games content can mean quality, while "quality" is necessarily a subjective concept but you can't argue with the content a game has as content is objective. In that context content will be always the greatest factor that people judge quality of everything. That's why from simple junk food content to "content" in art works people care about anything more when there are lots of it as it's how humanity is. You cannot develop a game with subjective concept of "quality". Even in visual arts people don't do anything about making a painting have "quality", they focus on "content" therefore canvas is filled with lots of stuff to avoid dullness. Pay attention to character designs, they have lots of nonsense clothing parts that's filled with shapes and lines. This is also why your mother put a plant where she sees "too empty" and fill the walls with decorations lol. Humans like to fill stuff to enhance content in everything. They fill their homes, their rooms, their wallets, their minds, their personalitiesā. They brag over tons of cars in their garage over one car they love to have. Let them and they will have lots of partners they can't stop being married. Distorted desires even make people collect garbage to fill the contents of their homes lol. Not many people care about "quality", their survival instinct makes them feel like not having much means they lack food or something as it triggers their sense of danger. In this way people prefer everything that has content, even a random visual artwork to feel "quality" in it.
Sense of "quality" is subjective therefore you cannot make it have it. They try to fill games with most generic BS possible for the unrealistic heights of "quality" but it makes video games dull and don't worth even $30 but they feel entitled to sell it for $70 when people can't even buy eggs. I guess video game companies raising game prices to be able to afford eggs ayy lmao. :DDD
I didn't wait for a video game that much since Witcher 3, however I don't wait for this game as much as I've waited for Witcher 3. Since a decade video game industry has been dead so in an aspect my expectations are lowered so this makes me attracted to any potential video game easily more than ever despite how little potential they may have, on the other hand ironically it makes me way more suspicious that how bad the game would turn out due to video game industry died long ago so it makes me desire a perfect game. So weirdly it makes me underestimate and overestimate this video game simultaneously.
On one hand this game seems to try new things and offer sandbox fun that makes me remember golden age of experimental PlayStation 2 games, but the year is 2025 so the modern-day business sickness that's lazy greedy job begets empty games so I don't really expect it to deliver a decent sense of RPG, fun meaningful things to do and actually fun gameplay. This is more like a business investment for me that they have good ideas so I would like to invest my extra extra money in it instead of letting it accumulate dust where it lies. It's certainly better than even thinking about any CD PROJEKT SCAM, Ubishit, Electronic Abominations (EA), Badhesda, Nintendon't, KonArtistami, $onny, $EGO, SuckyEnix, Bummer Namco, Non-Activityision, Microtrash, CAN'tCOM, Rubbishstar Games, VALVenoughofyourBS, Fartizzard, et cetera video games lol. :DDD
