I mean, they're still decent, but the games have only inched forward and are still lacking in polish and the story is just nonsense
 
@twobugs It's the perfect example of franchising ruining a series. AC was supposed to be a trilogy. 3, no more and no less.
 
@Yuuki Even then, 3 would have been a horrible end to the trilogy
 
But it made tons of sales so they fired the creative director because he was insistent on it being a trilogy only.
@twobugs They fired the creative director before 3, IIRC.
 
I mean... the ending to 3 is just bizarre
Ah, that makes sense.
 
So AC3 isn't what he pictured.
 
5:01 PM
Ubisoft is a massive studio, so they can handle it. They really need to put the game on hold to rework everything tho
 
@twobugs Yeah, they made that ending so they could continue the series.
 
Basically I think yearly "works" for CoD because you have like 3 different ongoing series in CoD so it's fine that there are differences between them
 
yearly works for cod because it's actually a 2 (well now 3) year dev cycle
 
Also, not as many people buy CoD for the story as is the case for AC.
 
AC was on a yearly cycle, or some weird version
 
5:02 PM
With AC its supposed to be one big unified series and that just doesn't work. Features jump in and out, the core gameplay stays the same (with very few improvements, if any)
The only thing that moves is the story, and that moves too much in nonsensical directions
The modern stuff they're seemingly intent to draw out for as long as possible
 
has anyone tried to make sense out of the AC storyline?
 
Plus they jump around platforms
So I have no idea what happened plot wise on the mobile and vita versions
 
@Rapitor Here's what I got: ancient civilization dead. We're trying to prevent the same thing happening to us. There's a button and only Desmond can press it.
Desmond presses the button and dies because reasons
 
... sorry I asked

5:04 PM
During the credits for AC3, completely offscreen it says "oh god the sun is doing that thing... we're all gonna die...... oh no... oh okay it's all good now"
It was a very big :| moment for me
 
i didn't play 4 for the story anyway. i played for PIRATE SHIPS
 
lol AC wemt cp,[;ete
AC went completely off the rails...
 
The Vita game was actually pretty cool. It's just 100% past stuff
 
Shame really, the story could of been really really good
 
@twobugs I kinda hope they avoid that for the movie.
 
5:08 PM
It's framed as you're playing a game made by Abstergo and they're trying to censor the Assassins vs Templar thing to make the Assassins evil but they didn't totally succeed ;)
It had some issues but I actually really enjoyed the vita one
 
@twobugs I do hope they avoid the framing story and just focus on the past Assassins.
 
cool,. i might take a look at it
 
Those stories seem pretty compelling enough on their own.
 
The economic minigame was awesome though and I'm a sucker for those
@Yuuki Ezio's definitely was, Connor's wasn't. Kenway's was meh.
Connor (and most of AC3) was just handled poorly and really under utilized.
 
which one was the one with the story about being a kid on a farm ,then joinign a cult
was that connor?
 
5:10 PM
Well Connor is he's a Native American who joins the Assassins but nothing interesting really happens
The most they do with it is he sides with the Assassins cause he's like "my people will be free!" and, well, we know how that turns out
 
I think it was AC3 but I forget...
 
Except the game doesn't do anything with that. It's just like an afterthought
 
 
I wonder if the total upvotes is more or less than that.
 
And then they decided to make the oft-requested AC:China game into a sidescroller instead of a fully 3d one
I think a fully 3D AC game set in China could be awesome. They'd probably have to do some actual research and come up with new assets rather than just rehashing all the european stuff, though, so that'll never happen

@djsmiley2k They have a ticker but it is for total votes + edits + comments.
 
AC China?!
dahell|?
 
Asheron's Call? :)
 
But it's not F-Zero. :<
 
why didn't they just make F-Zero

reminds me more of wipeout or aerogauge
 
@Rapitor That's the one I was thinking of
@Rapitor Because nintendo doesn't want f-zero fans to be happy
 
@Rapitor At this point, I'm almost entirely certain Nintendo is trolling F-Zero fans.
 
they just don't want money I guess
 
Nintendo does hate money.
 
5:31 PM
This is actually pretty funny.
Shovel Knight's getting an Amiibo.
 
Wipeout was some fun shit
 
@GnomeSlice Yeah, except when you wiped out
LOLOL GET IT
Man, I'm the funniest human being wh hsa ever existedand ever will exist.
 
Wipeout 64 was hard as fuck though
 
The PS3 and Vita Wipeout games were great
The best part was if you owned PS3 Wipeout you could download all of that content for free in the Vita version
And it worked
 
5:36 PM
@Yuuki Yes
 
I dunno, I just can't take @GnomeSlice seriously with they cyclops avatar
 
Actually, it looks pretty hot.
 
Have you never seen my other avatars before
 
@badp so that's where all my socks have gone!
 
@Yuuki didn't see a "don't try this at home". go ahead and do it, kids!
 
5:39 PM
ECO got featured on Kickstarter and have reached their funding goal with 13 days still left to go
 
@Yuuki Haha, I was going to say almost the same thing as @Rapitor :D

user15026
@Yuuki O.o
 
Did anyone see that game The Flock?
The one that ya know, once the last person in it dies.. the game is shut down and unplayable?
 
Yeah, is it over now?
 
5:44 PM
No, it just sounds like a stupid idea
 
Don't play it then
 
I'm not... and from what I gather the game is going to go on forever.. cause no one else is either.
@Wipqozn What is the qualification of a Mass Shooting.. cause it seems to be 'more than one' from reading that article.. in which case I think we need to redefine that phrase..
Hmm,four people
That still seems like.. not a mass
 
mass, to me, is 100+
 
@James If it's just the mass, then how about your mom?
 
It's the defintion of a mass shooting as defined by a redditor, where an indicent had four or more gun injuries, which is different than the FBI's requirement of 3 or more persons killed in an incident.
 
5:50 PM
@twobugs >.>
 
I'd been waiting to say that since I read the article :P
 
Hmm.. Mass just implies larger numbers than what I can count on one hand to me I guess
@twobugs Glad I could oblige :D
 
aptly named, 'splatune'
 
Splatune
 
'Ello, guvnors.
 
5:57 PM
 
@Yuuki Would that classify as just a regional problem or outright racism?
 
Danish is a nationality, not a race
 
...Nationism?
 
@murgatroid99 Danish is a pastry.
