Two major expansions and free seasonal content will be included.
While there’s a lot to love about modern video games, there is one trend — particularly in the AAA space — that tends to grate: their length.
Games are coming out with too much fluff and side activities that are horribly dull. That's my main issue with all these open world games. Open world should be about exploration, discovery and wonder, not have some stupid 10s or 100s of boring activities spread throughout.
100% agree
All these ubisoft titles, Farcry, AC, Ghost recon, boast huge maps, but with the same, 3 missions or the same base to clear 100s of times. Hour 1 of any of those titles is the same as hour 100, there big for the sake of being big, with the illusion of player freedom, where we really want depth and player expression.
Give me a solid 15-20 hour engaging single player driven IP any day. Life's too short you dig.
I stopped buying overfluffed games like a decade ago. Cant stand games with the Ubisoft mindset of just filling maps with uselss collectibles and fodder. Make it mean something. Ill gladly take 1/4 size of the map and 1/10th the "content" if it all meant more, were more unique and greater affect on your progression.
Well people complained like the world was ending when a few games were six to ten hours of gameplay. Developers listened and started making longer games full of repetitive gameplay, time wasting fetch quest and other forms of bloat. In doing so they were able to justify the high cost of a game being sold to the customers at seventy dollars or more.
Filler, it's like a 80 episodes show where only the first and last episodes actually matter
It's been a problem with pretty much every modern AAA game all through last gen and this gen. God forbid you point it out tho because all these big games are masterpieces and people lose their minds if you criticize them. Death Stranding is a fetch quest fest, but people will die defending it cause it's a "masterpiece".
Like a huge game world to truly get absorbed into? GameSpew has rounded up the best open world games on PS5.
This weekend from August 10-14, players can play for free Assassin’s Creed II, Brotherhood, Revelations, Black Flag and Valhalla on Xbox, PlayStation and PC (availability dependent on platform).
I cant stand it when these companies show off DLC before the game has even launched.... 🤦🏻♂️ This just tells me they didn't finish the game and needed to put some of the game into DLC for more revenue.
Im gonna call it here. Assassins Creed will become a GAAS in the near future.
Pre-Day 1 DLC announcement and time savers...definitely going to wait for a steep discount on this one. I can't believe I actually thought about purchasing this over Cyberpunk.
For those of you about to make comments about "how dare Ubisoft..." you do realize that the pre-orders for this game have been live since April and it was known then that there was a season pass that you got when you purchased the Gold or Ultimate additions. Just like every other game that has a season pass. Ubi has always revealed their roadmap of post-launch content before the release of the game. Personally, I prefer that because I know what I am getting for the extra money I spent rather than buying a game and season pass and finding out after the fact that the DLC is not worth the extra money.
Cool. Already got the ultimate edition preordered
Sucker Punch!
Show them how it's done...
Could you imagine the next infamous with multiplayer co-op??
Different conduits with X-Men powers.
But I do have this game pre-order for the XSX so I'm not mad at free content.
