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. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

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 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.

I liked 4, but I think that was because I loved cruising the sea singing along to shanties.

Don't forget they sided with Epic and went anti Steam

I won't say I'm not interested in Valhalla, but I just can't commit to an 80 hour game of bloat anymore. Hexenherz posted...

Yeah this quote makes me sad Ubisoft is now synonymous with open worlds, yet is there any chance it would ever return to more focused outings like Assassin's Creed Unity? --- Kind Regards, Darmik ...

Yeah this quote makes me sadThat'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. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

I play AC specifically because of how consistently busy it is. When you're stuck home sick, it's downright soothing. They probably want it to be exciting, but you don't get excitement from the uniform grayness of Ubisoft.

Open worlds have became kind of a gimmick, but I think they are now a requirement now regardless of the genre
