well, I probably actually wanted the original style of game back
but those are long gone
their modern open world thing is fun enough, especially when they fill it with every relevent historical character possible
the lvl-based combat is dumb
I agree
I figured for a shorter game it might be less bad
since there's less padding
idk how you fix asscreed mechanically
other than redoing the entire (modern) combat design
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 idk how you fix asscreed mechanically
gated open world
new combat system
focus on stealth gameplay first and design every level around someone stealthing it
I'd kill for an actual stealth game
it just can't be that though
the power fantasy of AC is too strong
starting in what, Unity? suddenly huge swarms of enemies became no threat
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 starting in what, Unity? suddenly huge swarms of enemies became no threat
they still respected stealth
of course
one of them might drop your cloak of +10 dmg
purple rarity
I like map clearing to a point, but it doesn't work well with being an assassin
esp with how small settlements are
I really don't like modern Hitman, but idk why Ubisoft saw that being successful and doubled down even harder on removing stealth and assassinations, from their assassin game
From what I saw of AC Japan
every encounter was meant to be steamrolled via brawling with the black guy
anyway, I'm sad now that we're not getting another American AC game
it's a good setting
next one is China right
Jade
oh right
yeah
china is phone
they have their Nightrain inspired MP game
AC Invictus
