Here’s a list of all the patch notes since launch. I didn’t play AC so you could probably make better sense of it then me, but if it’s anything like Elden Ring then it’s mostly just qol and balance changes

I bought the classic Assassin’s Creed games on steam and didn’t play them for a while (long after the refund window closed)

I pirated them after seeing how bad Ubisoft connect works

Ah, I don’t game on my phone so I wouldn’t know about that, but all of my banking apps work and while I don’t normally use streaming services, I just downloaded and tested Netflix and Hulu and both loaded and took me to a login screen. I only actually logged in to Hulu because I don’t have a Netflix account, but I think it’s safe to assume it would’ve worked

I’ve been using GrapheneOS for a couple months and haven’t found any apps to be giving me trouble. What apps are locked off?

If any are still available can I get a surprise dealers choice?

Lots of people did (and still do) play Forza on an Xbox one which uses an HDD, and back when I did as well the game ran just fine

HDDs don’t usually affect the performance of a game or how it operates so they’re fine even for newer games, the only thing it’ll change is that you’ll have significantly slower loading times

This might sound weird but the first game that came to my mind was cod. If the goal is only to familiarize her with the controls then you don’t even need to play online. Just load up in a private lobby alone and learn how to walk while looking around, add in sprinting and jumping, then figure out how to aim and shoot at stuff (stationary if necessary). I imagine that if she’s able to get comfortable with all that then she’ll be fine with literally anything else.

Other than that just play games that you’re both interested in and the controls will come with it

As someone else pointed out when this article was posted yesterday, the legal system doesn’t consider it theft, it’s considered copyright infringement, though I suspect this doesn’t change anyone’s opinion on it

I believe it. I’m just glad they kept the option to turn it all off

Started playing through the Assassin’s Creed series again but completely disabling the hud, even the minimap. I did have to open the big map frequently at the beginning but you get used to it and it just feels cool having to scope out/explore an area to find and get to your target and deal with guards as they come

I will say the first game feels like it was made to be played this way, but the second game (which I’m on now) and later unfortunately don’t feel like that. Still gonna try to get through the whole series like this though

Ha, get a load of this guy, he thinks wine is an emulator!

I personally don’t really use physical media anymore but I can’t imagine it’s going away anytime soon

Original title for anyone who doesn’t want to click on the article:

“Minecraft is getting a visual overhaul you probably don’t need because of all those mods you’ve got installed”

“Don’t worry, you don’t have to download a separate launcher, we’ve included it for you :)”

If it’s your thing btd6 is on sale for $3

Other people might like it, I like it myself, but Syndicate is objectively one of the lower quality games in the franchise

I played the second Styx game when Xbox did free games with gold and enjoyed it. Depending on the price I’ll probably pick this up (or just wait until it goes on sale)

Got sucked into the solo leveling gacha game. I haven’t played a gacha game since the one I played in high school got shut down, but it’s pretty fun and seems like it’s f2p friendly. We’ll see how long I stick with it for

Which game makes you click through ads to get to the menu?

When I said I wonder why, I meant in regards to a game in an active life cycle. The game came out in 2021 and, as I said, recieved its last content drop with a new game on the way

This is obviously a good thing for ps gamers but I have to wonder why this is happening? The game just received its final content drop, and I don’t if it’s been officially announced, but the next game is gonna be coming soon, probably later this year or early next year and I find it hard to believe that it’s going to be released on ps as well.

In what world is a “gacha system” not a lootbox

Wasn’t a delay announced a few days ago? Is this the same delay or was it pushed back even further?

Bought the tomb raider games (the modern ones) earlier this year on sale, summer I want to say? Finally getting around to playing them

Idk man I think you’re reading too much into it

The title makes it seem like they recast her as a response to all the neckbeards shitting on the trailer.

In what way? The title doesn’t make it seem like anything, it literally just says she’s been recast

I know you’re joking, but assassin’s creed could unironically use less role play. The games have been downhill ever since they introduced it

I mean it wasn’t great, but it was okay, and considering that it was free to play I think it was a decent competitor to cod

This is extremely based

Username checks out

I think it’s fair for someone to want to cheat in achievements of this nature. OP put over 100 hours into this game and is only 0.1% of the way there. If I put 100 hours into a game, I would also want to fast track past these two middle fingers the devs threw in

While I still enjoy the older titles more, I’ve been having a lot of fun with this one. Terminus is definitely a top 10 map, maybe even top 5

Source code is only for HG/SS and B2W2, so we still can’t verify anything about the newer genes

I think it’s more that this sub is more about news and discussion rather than memes (although I don’t know if it’s explicitly against the rules?)

Also it just isn’t a good meme

Edit: just checked and it is, in fact, against the rules

Then why did you ask in the first place?

Any more what? If you mean me consoles, they’ve been out almost 4 years now

“Last gen” pretty universally means previous

Me and a buddy have been replaying Battleblock Theater but trying to 100% all levels on hard mode, which we did not do back as kids lol

New Super Mario Bros on my sick red Mario DS. Although Pokémon would come shortly after which I remember much more fondly.
