Got permabanned from Reddit for damn near no reason. So now I’m here.
I haven’t played Valhalla. But it’s REALLY hard to fuck up vikings. It’s pretty pathetic if they managed to. I played most of the Assassin’s Creed games last year. I enjoyed AC3 on much more than the first few (despite preferring Ezio to Connor by a little). Black Flag was excellent imo. Unity had potential, the microtransactions being required to get full completion pissed me off. I never finished it. Syndicate was much better, but it still had at least 1 purchase of the fictional currency required to have all the collectibles visible on the map. I missed exactly 1 fragment because of that. Never got it, and I tried. I liked the rpgs a decent amount at the time, but my standards were (and are) rather low. I’ll probably buy Shadows when it goes on a 75% off sale.
15 now. There’s also… the one that was really boring. It was in like 900. In a Middle Eastern desert. I think. I couldn’t finish it lol. There’s also Shadows, which I haven’t played. People called it racist or something. The last few haven’t required any semblance of stealth, they’re kinda just open world rpgs. Odyssey was the best one from what I hear.
For example, games like Jedi Survivor. Very popular. Not an exclusive. You can play it on Xbox, Playstation, PC, whatever. If all games weren’t exclusives and could be played on anything, then the only reason to buy or not buy a console would be the console performance and company behavior. This would definitely increase game sales and availability as well.
Exclusives are a bad thing. The fact that you’re asking to be fed the same regurgitated ip slop gives them the idea that maybe, $80 games are underpriced. Maybe they can bump that up to a base $90, $100 for physical. Nintendo keeps exclusives out of greed, worse than even Sony. There shouldn’t be exclusives. Ridiculous.
That can only be a net positive. Only good games I’ve bought from them are Fallen Order and Survivor.
