All of them have talented people working on them, but some of them you get the sense that a strong creative direction managed to win, and others feel designed by committee
28.01.2026 15:51 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Yeah, I haven't played an Assassin's Creed game in years. Ubisoft has sort of perfected the hyper-templated, wide as an ocean, deep as a puddle open world experience at this point. There are no doubt incredibly talented people working there, but when the mandate is BIGGER, quality gets diluted?

Honestly in awe of your level of organisation! I freeze my bread at the last minute before it goes mouldy because I have ADHD and I'm constantly forgetting all the fresh food I bought exists.
22.01.2026 15:12 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Yeah, I've always felt like this. My main gripe with deathloop is how it sort of feels like they bailed on their central conceit of "figure out how to kill all of them in one loop" by having the game literally walk you through it step by step. I've always assumed that was not the original plan.

Yeah, on the face of it, it's just another entry in the Ubisoft open world template. I've always felt though that it coalesces into something that's far more than the sum of its parts. I also genuinely loved the story!

Seems someone just learned a new word based on how many times you've replied with it in this thread! Take your centrist, sensible middle ground nonsense elsewhere. Pretending a fascist and a progressive are the same may make you feel smart but it makes you look stupid at best and malicious at worst.
