Takes me back to cod and battlefield though, those games have been copy and paste for nearly a decade now and still get really high ratings. Perhaps ubi didn't pay enough?
It's a vr setting, you're basically logged into a computer and are replaying events of your ancestors past. The "real world" events have you log out of this computer.
Having played rogue I don't understand why it scores so low. I've actually had a blast playing it. Especially the legendary ship battles were more challenging than in black flag. Also to be fair, the story is better... Ac4 didn't have much of a story to be fair.
I am interested in the concept, and will keep a close eye to see where its going. However, the pc i build close to 2 years ago (and later replaced the gfx card off... because it spewed sparks) is faster than the alpha (I5-2500k / 16gb ddr3/pc-1600 (corsair vengeance) + GTX770-OC 2gb.)
@mi_hung_lo Only way that'll work though is if games get standardized (like with consoles). so all games will work on all parts sold for said steam machine, else you'll end up with the only real issue pc's have. 1. A lack of performance, or 2. incompatibility / driver errors. So while the idea of a steam machine is great, actually being able to perfect the concept will take another 10 years or so at least.
This is called a Mini pc, or small form factor pc. And given the fact it's build by alienware i can pretty much guaranty people that i could build a similar system for atleast 200$ less
