What is Bluepoint up to nowadays? Can't they find some resources to remake the first? I adored Disco Elysium and CRPGs are something special from before my dawning days of gaming with the PS1.
The Remake would also fit Sony's direction with the PS5 btw...
@LowDefAl Exactly, I despise the gatekeeping of classics through LRG, publisher websites and so on. Ordered mine via Amazon like it (nearly) should be.
@SuzannahE The fact that you're replying like this to my comment PLUS that you registered on here half an hour ago is hilarious. Are you an intern and happened to draw the shortest straw? 😂
@Matthewnh always, forever, will discs be superior to "licenses". If the 6 skips the disc drive it won't enter my household, ever! I have such a collection, I won't need any more games, anyways.
There are several MOCs online that are way better than the Tallneck for kids (by the difficulty). MocBay for example has exquisite sets, like the Thunderjaw, check them out (no affiliation)!
@DennisReynolds That is simply not true. The animes and whatnot about Yasuke are fictionalized works, but Ubisoft depicts it as it actually happened as a matter of fact and marketed it as such (I'm aware AC is way past being historical). That he was even a retainer is highly doubtful, even simply considering how class worked, especially concerning foreigners ("jesuits") back in that japanese period.
Enjoy the game, no worries whatsoever, but please do not claim that Yasuke is was what Ubisoft, even more so Thomas Lockley, claim he was. Maybe they fell for this grifter, big time. Cheers
@Nakatomi_Uk I If this is real that they delayed it into february BECAUSE it's the US's Black History Month would be outright racist. "Let the black folks save our break-even-point"? I wouldn't put it past Ubisoft to actually order this. This, or their outright out of touch.
It's video game marketing, though, so nothing is without calculation.
@DennisReynolds The claim that Yasuke was a full blown Samurai is wholly beiunscientific at best. I've looked into multiple sources and it's nowhere near "likely". One dude makes a whole career out of exclaiming that this is a story, named Thomas Lockley.
What puts people off of this game is the audacity of Ubisoft to call it historical. I loved the Yasuke anime, but the new AC is a Far Cry of anything "historical". Hence all the cheap errors they are putting into the game.
That and the sheer amount of laziness in developing and marketing the game makes, in my eyes, the whole endeavor a DOA. We only have one trailer of it yet, but Ghost of Yotei will likely wipe the floor with AC Shadows.
Splendid work by the union, this is exactly the leverage organised workers need. No matter the industry. UNIONIZE, FOLKS!!!! Only as a collective force are we able to overcome the feudal bosses which own our labour. "Everyone loves democracy, except when they enter the place they work at". Period.
If Yotei is only close to Tsushima I'm down for whatever. I platinumed Tsushima nearly by accident, I only lacked 3 trophies or so. That's how much I dug into it. Thanks, SuckerPunch!
