I guess we can safely say Rayman and Splinter Cell are completely dead now.
Worse. If Splinter cell does come back, it'll be open world somehow. Think ghost recon most recent games.

That's such bullshit too, because while the stories themselves may be 15 hours, you can't just focus on them. You're forced to do a decent chunk of the open world busy work because of level gating and stuff.

It's crazy to think that over 10 years ago they were a publisher with a huge amount of variety and now it's basically open world games or games as a service multiplayer titles.
They've outright said all their single player games will be their tried and true open world formula from here on out.

its a bummer you gave up at valhalla. game is bloated as hell but within it is one of the best AC stories to date.
I loved Origins story, but only with the dlcs that actually complete the story. I won't say I'm not interested in Valhalla, but I just can't commit to an 80 hour game of bloat anymore.

I haven't really played any of their stuff since the relatively early 360/PS3 days. I just didn't like the "feel" of any of their games, it's hard to really explain.
It's not hard to explain, it's basically what I said how they're all homogeneous and "wide as an ocean, deep as a puddle"

I've played and beat every single AC game except Valhalla, and every time I'm like "hmm, I'm interested", I just can't pull the trigger and get it. I think about how Ubisoft games have progressed and all become so homogenous, with massive open worlds filled with endless pointless busy work, excessive grinding, etc.. Every single one of their games is essentially the same at their core now. Odyssey got fucking ridiculous after a while. Not to mention the excessive monetization.

Ghost of tsushima was basically an AC game, but better. It had bloat, but almost all of it could be avoided if you wanted, whereas ubi games you are forced to do a big chunk of the side bloat in some capacity.

Not to mention the culture at Ubisoft itself. Rampant sexual abuse with management that covers it up going to the highest level.

Ubisoft has become one of the worst triple a developers/publishers.

Joe was my favorite podcaster and I even loved his Alex Jones and Shapiro podcasts (from before Spotify so not the most recent Jones one). But he got weird ever since he moved to Spotify, and the vibe felt off even with Duncan trussell who was a longtime friend of his. I have zero proof of this but I wonder if he had a particularly bad experience on dmt within the last two years. I seem to recall him constantly talking about his most recent trip being surrounded by jesters giving him the finger and not wanting to communicate...I think its well within the realm of possibility that you can come back from that just saying screw the world Ill get whats mine because this is all a sick joke and who knows maybe thats the hidden reality of things but it doesnt make you someone I want to surround myself with. I think old joe would criticize current joe a lot.
Nah, the money just got to him

A heater. It uses the heat from the PC components to keep chicken warm.

What I want to know is the specs. I see it has an i9 processor (I assume the latest generation) and a 1TB SSD, but what about the GPU and RAM?


complete specs haven't been revealed, but we know it's got an Intel Nuc 9 CPU, Seagate BarraCuda 1TB SSD, and judging from the prominence of "ray tracing" in the marketing from Cooler Master, an Nvidia GPU. Cooler Master also says the KFConsole has "a first of its kind hot swappable GPU slot" for easy upgrades. But who really cares about all that when it's got a chamber to keep your fried chicken warm?

I agree, even their own investors now.
The game is good, not perfect, but a solid 8/10. Putting it out on the older systems really hurt them and it's a damn shame.

I feel terrible for the developers who worked on it all day every day for years who are now seeing their blood, sweat, and tears, mocked and insulted to this level.
They did, and they didn't.

They HAD to put it on the last gen consoles. That's where literally 90% of their profits would come from due to install base.

Basically 2% of choices impact the story. Specifically theres a choice near the end of the game that essentially picks your ending, and thats all that matters

If you want to see the specifics this handy guide goes through it all but beware it contains spoilers throughout

SPOILERS: https://www.powerpyx.com/cyberpunk-2077-story-choices-guide/
Thing is, there are prerequisites for some of the endings. Only two are there no matter what. One requires doing the rogue side quest, one requires doing the panam side quests, and one requires Johnny to like you via you being nice to him.
