| pres_madagascar 05/26/20 5:14:02 AM #32 | ssjevot posted... I think a lot of these are part of a bigger trend of mindlessly putting MMO mechanics in a single player game without understanding why they don't necessarily translate.Ubisoft has been particularly guilty of "mmo-ifying" their games. --- |

All games with some sort of grind that can be shortened or skipped with microtransactions.That's why jedi fallen order is so funny, it's not an amazing game, it's simply a decent, fun game. What made it so appealing is that it was just a concise, simple, single player game with no bullshit and no padding. A rarity today. --- |

All games with some sort of grind that can be shortened or skipped with microtransactions"time-savers" are arguably the most egregious type of micro transactions, because they basically say that the game is intentionally hamstrung and gated by needless grind. --- |

I still remember going to a concert that was Thursday, taking back Sunday, blink 182, and cypress Hill, really odd blending of artists but it was fun. --- |

Fuck offfffI adore open world games, but so many games make themselves open world for no goddamn reason and fill it with padding. It's like devs forget you can make games pseudo open world so that the world feels large and open but everything is contained and concise. Fable games are pseudo open world, FF7R is pseudo open world. --- |

I'm a huge fan of the series, but that game annoyed the fuck out of me when I finally beat it and looked back at my time with it. Origins was a significantly better game in almost every way and I'm glad the guys who did that are doing Valhalla. --- |

| pres_madagascar 05/26/20 3:38:52 AM #1 | *excessive padding/filler/gating content off just to pad out length. This speaks to so many games, from Assassins creed Odyssey to ff7 remake. So many games have pointless busy work side content that just isn't fun. *over-reliance on crafting systems in rpgs. It kinda takes away from the fun of exploring to know there's no real point to it since you won't really find any cool loot since everything worth a damn is crafted. --- |

| pres_madagascar 05/16/20 10:41:18 AM #69 | CommunismFTW posted... Ubisoft aims to release an AC game every year or two, and have multiple titles by multiple tiered studios working to leap-frog that into reality. An AC game probably takes 1-3 years to complete, max.They often borrow from each other, or use the same engine, and try to push specific things each independently -- or not. See: Origins to Odyssey being a map pack basically.Not even. Origins had way more time in development. The team that did Origins also did black flag and is doing Valhalla, that's their "a team", that ashraf guy at the helm of it is their best lead. --- |

They know I won't hurt them so I always see them on my back portch on this little wall doing push ups and eating shit.Haha yeah the push-ups. I found out they do that to help them gauge distance and height better, something to do with their vision. I live in Mesa Arizona so I see a lot of them. --- |

I'm standing here smoking and next thing I know I see the gecko rushing at me. I'm like what the fuck, and next thing I know, homie eats a bee that was walking on the ground about to walk onto my flip flopped foot. After, he ran away, but stopped, turned around to look at me, and kept going. --- |
