    Screw their “infinity platform”. Cloud based online only engine, ruined my last hopes when the announced it. They claimed it was so we could have bigger worlds, and maybe we can, but a 3000 series GPU can render a lot, and assassins creeds worlds are huge, but empty.

    So, not really interested. At least not for full price. 20 bucks, fine, I’ll buy it knowing ubisoft is going to rip it out of my hands later. Not for 60.

      Cloud based

      Good way to kill my interest in anything, at the moment.

      They claimed it was so we could have bigger worlds

      All such claims remind me of SimCity shooting itself in the foot. Frankly I’m more surprised that the industry still hasn’t learned, but I guess it is to be expected since everything is now run by MBAs.

      Yep my wife likes these games so I usually get it for her but only 6 month/a year later when there’s good sales. Personally I lost interest after Odyssey (which I loved), I’m just waiting for one set in Japan!
