IGN - Assassin's Creed's focus on character-driven storytelling has been buried by its RPG sandbox features, and the series is weaker for it.
A rare W opinion piece from IGN.
IMO, Ubisoft needs to setup two primary AC dev teams. 1 would focus on and release character-driven OG-style AC games for OG fans and the other would continue the current RPG-ified AC style for current fans.
Release by them Bi-annually and alternatively. There'd less fatigue and a boost to quality.
I definitely appreciate 3 more after playing it again in recent years along with the Liberation game. Back when 3 was new I was still riding high on AC2 and Brotherhood so when I played 3 I felt a bit let down. Even the ship battles grew on me.
AC2 - Yes
AC3 - Urm...I don't know
I feel they kind of dropped the ball with AC3 and with the way the story went it just didn't make sense to me at all. I felt it would have made more sense lore wise if they had it so the Red Coats were mostly Assassins and the Templars were mostly the Colonists who wanted this "new world" as a fresh start for their operations, to build a country up they'd have full control of from the start so they manufacture the war as something else while really it's just a front for the Templars vs Assassins.
It just meant that since the Red coats lose the war it explains how the Templars have gained full control of future America and how the Assassins have slowly died out by then. This entire event would have been the turning point of how things went to s**t for the Assassins and how there's not many of them left in the present.
Haythem was a lot more interesting than Connor and he should have been the main Assassin of AC3.
I thought AC2 was the greatest of the series and it is but replaying it recently, I stared to see more flaws in the game. Basically every single mission is an assassination besides a few tailing missions lol. Still, the implementation of all the new mechanics were great. The smoke bombs, disarming guards, story, hidden tombs, swimming, flying machine, multiple locations, etc. it definitely felt a bit more special to me at the time of release though
Dunno about 3, the 1st act was cool, then i couldn't tell you what happens after that. But 2 was so good! The entire acts 1-3 were al memorable, whereas i really couldn't even tell you what happens in any other AC game
A new rating of Resident Evil 6 for Xbox has been spotted, which could suggest that it's getting a current gen port for Xbox Series X/S and PS5.
EW
NOOOOOOOOOO
In what mind make sense to do this with the worse game on the series 🤦🏿
I loved Resident Evil 4 back in the day and enjoyed Resident Evil 5 even though I had to do co-op to beat the final boss. Shiva was just too dumb.
Resident Evil 6 on the other hand, was so bad that I stopped playing after an hour in the game. That was before I even played any high-quality single-player games outside of Mass Effect, Portal, and Skyrim. I can't imagine playing RE6 now.
Chances are their next remake will be 5.
I just don't get why it's already on the platforms via BC unless it's a remake which would piss everyone off as fans are hoping for either the original game or code veronica to get the remake treatment
Sonic Adventure 2 is seeing more players on Steam than ever before thanks to the theatrical release of the Sonic 3 movie.
Huh, it's almost like they should try listening to fans that have asked for a new one over the last two decades... At this point, I've given up hope though honestly. Saw a lot of people loving Frontiers, but I could not get into it. It just felt so generic with the world and level designs. The thing I loved about the franchise was that each level felt unique with the colors, design, music, etc.
Also, don't you have to get a mod to even run this above 30 FPS on Steam? I recall someone on YouTube playing this for the first time and having a hard time getting things working. Sucks that such a beloved game is treated poorly.
SA2 was only good as Sonic. Knuckles levels were pure disaster.
SA1 was a far better game.
I actually liked the robotnik levels least of all. Knuckles wasn't too bad cause of the music lol.
I agree the knuckle levels were the worst part of the game. It broke the flow of the gameplay and the music was off for a sonic game. It felt like those knuckle levels were made by a different dev.
The Sonic and tails levels, however, were awesome. The multiplayer mode was interesting and my brother and I spent hours
Replies(2)Still have SA2 Battle. Those Knuckles & Rouge stages aged very poorly but I still have fun with all the other character stages. Shame Sega doesn't seem interested. I can't imagine fans were clamoring for a mediocre Colors port over either SA game being ported.
i still have it for gamecube ps3 and ps4 haha.
good game, but chaannky. or the camera is anyways
It's like most devs will never actually atleast try to deliver a fan favorite title. Simpsons hit&run remake or sequel, bully 2, new sonic adventures title, another thoroughly made good batman singeplayer titles. Smh the list goes on
Ewwww 3D Sonic. Should be playing a good Sonic game. Heck even Sonic Spinball over that trash.
Can't wait for AC3! Saving the best of october for last.
All I see is RE6 worth buying.
resident evil 6 and sonic adventure 2
Cannot wait for Assassin's Creed III, it looks so good
