It seemed a strange move by Ubisoft to release two games on the same day for differing generations of consoles, but the more I played through Assassin’s Creed: Rogue, the more I warmed to the idea and eventually managed to shake away the feeling that I’m being fed a second glass of milk from the same cow.
Mark from WellPlayed writes about five game launches that were impacted by unfortunate scheduling.
Zero Dawn sold really well so I’m not sure this belongs. The second game released next to a big game again and it hurt it some I forget what it was though, oh yeah Elden Ring .
But a good game is a good game to me I don’t care when they release personally but they do have to think about it when you want to get more people to buy it.
From Xfire: "Enemy AI is a difficult subject to tackle in video games. Some may argue that current tech isn't advanced enough to implement ultra realistic AI. However, in a world where your phone's AI can book appointments for you, can't it spot a hooded figure hiding in a 'crowd' of four people? In fact, the AI in 2006's The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion was so smart that the developer had to 'dumb' it down for the final release."
From Xfire: "Blending real-world history with a gripping fantasy story is quite a thrilling concept but with a dozen games released over a period of 13 years, understanding the chronological order of the Assassin’s Creed franchise can be a challenge for anyone. This is further complicated by the fact that Ubisoft decided to leap through the timelines with the release of Assassin’s Creed Origins.
The exact play order of the series can be a heated subject among the core fanbase. Should you play the games in chronological order? Or should you play through the series in order of their release date?"
Cool feature. The anchor point links need to be fixed in the article, but otherwise great stuff. Thank you for posting!
Epic article man, I can't wait for this game.
Watched a walkthrough of the game. Great story that leads nicely into Unity.
What's wrong with two glasses of milk from the same cow?
Two is better than one!
I'm actually looking more forward to this game then unity. I'll be picking Unity up 1st though and I'll wait for this to get remastered for this Gen.
