Current You'd think after like 15 years I'd stop feeling like a fraud when writing posts but I still do which is both a statement on my self confidence and a compliment to how good my partners are as writers

I really don't know what you like in video games sometimes, girl.


Neither do I but I know it when it happens.
After beating Persona 4 Golden when it was first released on Steam I went back to Persona 3 FES. beat it's main story, The Journey


Ah, you're playing the good nu-Persona game!
I finally found something I genuinely love in Ghost of Tsushima and I wish the whole game was just that but then the game would just be For Honor so never mind.
SWTOR is on Steam now so maybe it's time to get back on that horse
Honestly yes if for no other reason that Origins and then Odyssey effectively splintered the fanbase anyway with people who don't like the new direction. I can't speak to Valhalla but Origins at least had the story build to the creation of the Assassin's so the name fits there but Odyssey predates Origins and basically has to hardsmash its way into the series canon that it probably would've been better off just being its own thing.

Do you not think they do the same thing with AC (and Watchdogs)?


I think you can draw similarities between pretty much any given open world game, Ubisoft or otherwise, but ever since Far Cry 3 the focus has been on the eccentric villain while the tone has whipped back and forth with no regard for consistency. Having to spend the early parts of Far Cry shooting animals so you can carry more than a rock and a flower is asinine. Assassin's Creed has at least attempted to add something new with every entry - whether or not that's been successful is up to the individual - and with Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla they are fundamentally different games than everything that came before. They offer different experiences from each other but similar within the context of their own franchises.

Far Cry 3 was a pretty different sort of experience from Far Cry 2 but 4, Primal, 5, New Dawn, and even probably 6 have all just been cut from the cloth of 3. Assassin's Creed Origins and Odyssey share the name but at this point they're far removed from everything else that they might as well be called new games. Yeah, you climb things in both but climbing things is as much a part of Assassin's Creed as it is, like, Uncharted.

Watch Dogs hasn't had as many entries but it's already got an identity problem but other than the fact that it, too, is an open world I wouldn't say the philosophy behind it is the same as Far Cry which have all felt the same since 3 down to the focus being on the villain over anything else.
