Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.

Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.

2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.

I should not need to explain this one.

3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.

Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Ubisoft? More like WHObisoft.

A shame; the way they make their open worlds with lots of little things to collect and do are oddly pleasant to play for that. Definitely something only I really enjoy, I realize, of course.

I mean that’s a whole genre. The same could be said for Stardew Valley and that has a huge fan base.

More games should have the “lots of little things to collect and do” mechanic.

Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla scratched an itch that few other open world action RPGs have been able to for me (of course, they were copying Witcher III, which did it far better). Despite everyone saying all their games are the same, I haven't enjoyed any of their other ones like I did those three (oh, except for Watch Dogs 2). If Shadows is the same thing again but in Japan, I'll be satisfied.

That's not my favorite AAA company, it's my favorite AAAA company!

Also, the bit on the right is from a rather shitty looking, "anti woke" site.

they got some good games, but the uplay shenanigans was really a deal breaker for me.

i wish gog will pick some retro up in a few years so i can get back to playing some.

Hehe, BoobiSoft ...

the recent good game they made they failed to market at all and then split up the developer team - no change in marketing strategy.
