Ubisoft’s annually release of Assassin Creed Revelation’s seemed to be an amazing accomplishment after their launch of Assassin Creed Broherhood. Now that the 'Revelation' is upon us, the truth about where the franchise goes from here is not as clear as it was in the past. Revelations reveals our worst fears, and makes it clear that Ubisoft has reached the end of the design platform used to keep the series on its annual release cycle.
Ubisoft says they are focusing on two "core verticals," and that's to return as a leader in the open world genre, and live service games.
Calling Ubisoft a leader in open world gaming at any point in time would be like calling Dollar General a leader in retail.
Well, to be fair, they did pump out good open world games before. It was used as a template so much that people now know what it means when you say it's like an Ubi open world collectahon.
What though? I can't think of one game they had where I liked anything about it. Atleast since the ps3/360 Gen
If they have never been the leader in open world gaming, then explain me this: why does almost every open world game follow the same tired old Ubisoft open world formula?
Follow the Leader.
I don't think they were ever the leader tbh. I've never really cared for any of their open world games. I do wanna try watch dogs 2 because it looks like it's set in San Fran. Looked interesting
Hanzala from eXputer: "With Ubisoft's practices becoming increasingly anti-consumer lately, the destruction of The Sands of Time Remake looks almost inevitable."
Hey Ubi, here's a gun, don't shoot yourself in the foot.
*Ubi takes gun, aims at foot, empties clip*
Top executives including games boss Sean Shoptaw have also been promoted…
Please spell check your articles and fix minor errors. Oh and it is spelled Variety.
Blah blah blah Assassin's Creed blah blah blah annual release.
If you want to criticize an annually-releasing game, write an article about COD.
Assassin's manages to innovate and contains a fresh and new experience with each iteration
Going to enjoy Revelations...been looking forward to seeing Constantinople in all its glory
Great game, a good end to Ezio's story
