If it's sea of thieves with actual PVE it will probably sell shitloads of copies.
If it runs or plays like garbage then it will bomb horribly.
>Ubisoft store exclusive
Nevermind, it's 100% fricked.
when is release?
1 week
yeah it will be stillborn then didn’t hear of it and
>not on steam
I had no idea that this garbage was coming out so soon.
the open beta is free right now
well have you played it?
i'm playing it right now
What's the point in owning Ubisoft games if the CEO wants you to roll over and accept that you don't own their games?
Quoting that exec that said players need to be comfortable with not owning games?
That was overblown. One. he was the exec for Ubisoft's gamepass clone so of course he's going to shill it.
Two. he was asked what it would take for the gamepass clone to be successful. So his answer is 100% correct regardless of your feelings on the idea.
I will pre order it and it will be worth every penny. AAAA gaming will change everything.
$70 games with free-to-play business models, paying money to pay more money is the peak of AAA gaming
this game will almost certainly flop though, over a decade of development for this? pretty embarrassing.
AAAA gaming, Anon.
the only thing AAAA about this is the AAAA noise the developers will make when they get laid off as this piece of shit hemorrhages money
>$70 games with free-to-play business models, paying money to pay more money
Yeah, this shit's utterly ridiculous.
It's $59.99 (amerimutt dollars) tho.
i was thinking about PC so i got it wrong but the console versions do cost $70
they also cost £70 on the official stores instead of the "regular" £60 which is equivalent to about $88
>not releasing on steam
That's Ubisoft self sabotage
and they come crawling back everytime it’s so fricking dumb
Numbskulls and boners
>Ubisoft store exclusive
already shot itself on the foot, obvious flop and anyone can see it
It's in epic also
Well thank GOD for that
we all know how popular epic is.
So Ubisoft Store exclusive. Got it.
Doesn't seem to have a lot of marketing either, like this shit apparently comes out in 1 week and I was barely aware of its existence.
I don't think you guys realize how hard this game is about to bomb, the fricking intro for the game lists off over a shit ton of Ubsoft studios its insane
?t=1344
Like look at this shit
game looks like the same uninspired slop all their games are, sea of thieves at least has the unique artstyle
I can't play sea of thieves cause they have the stupidest fricking character creator ever, I don't want to play as some butt ugly inbred sailor, but you have to randomly generate them and it takes forever to get a cool or decent character model, it filters my OCD too much
You can change your character after the fact, you aren't locked in.
That's par for the course for Ubisoft these days, and it's been growing steadily for the last decade.
AC Syndicate had 8 studios working on it.
Far Cry 4 & 5 had 5 studios working on it.
AC Odyssey had 7-10 studios according to disputing sources.
Far Cry 6 had 12 studios.
AC Valhalla had somewhere around 15-17.
>people liked the naval combat in AC3 so much that Ubi decided to make a full single player while expanding that concept
>people liked AC4 so much that Ubi decided to make a mutlplayer crafting survival piece fo shit with dumbed down AC4 sailpaly
AAAA my ASS
You can't physically board ships, theres no land combat, just lol
>less features than in a 1987 pirate game
The absolute state of the game industry.
why couldn't this game just be Pirates! but with AC4 mechanics
Im sure it will look stunning theyre good at tthat. But it most likely will be another bland and cringe beautiful but soulless world just like avatar. The new ass creed mirage was a nice exception. though
game looks awful in general and it costed them 120 million to make
Nah it's gonna sink.
>Ubisoft
It will be shit
why is every dev so utterly committed to not giving us black flag 2 minus assassin shit /sid miers pirates 2?
is it not clear that there is a demand for comfy pirate game about exploring, building a boat or fleet, finding upgrades etc..
We're not allowed to have good things, anon. You will eat the slop and you will like it.
It's weird how little seafaring themes get utilized in mainstream vidya in general.
Try Horizon's Gate. It's indie, has a fantasy theme and tries to punch above it's weight in some aspects, but it is pretty much an ideal open ended sailing game.
Yes because frick woke troony loving ubisoft
I don't get why they did an open beta when it plays like ass
>game that wants you to buy clothing from in game store
>character models suck
why
is it even out
wtf this game is just asscreed black gay
oh wait it's also sea of thieves
was that game even popular?
i don't get why ubisoft decided to copy it
>was that game even popular
You mean the game that just released it's 11th season after 5 years from release? The game that is Microsoft's most successful new IP in a decade? Rare's most successful game of all time?
Yeah I'd say it's pretty popular.
They only had to add a multiplayer to Black Flag navy battles ten years ago.
Imagine how moronic Ubisoft management must be to frick things up this bad.
I can't believe they seriously pulled the "it's a AAAA game" with THIS game. People use this to describe Rockstar games with billion dollar budgets, and even that stirs people up understandably. A Ubislop game that's been back to the drawing board a hundred times? Lmao.
The funniest part is that this game was literally only made because the Singaporean government gave them money, and told them that the money comes with the stipulation that they need to hire people from Singapore. So the vast majority of the developers on this game are SEA monkeys, and it will inevitably be broken as frick.
The AAAA label is accurate for all the wrong reasons, it's like it's encapsulating all the shitty corpo shit AAA games pull and cranking it up another notch
how DEI/ESG is it?
yeah I know it's a stupid question considering Ubisoft.
call it morbid curiosity
>trailer is a billie eilish song while some roastie pirate who don't need no man monologues
Watched someone stream it and it looks boring as shit. The juxtaposition/transition between sailing and land gameplay is jarring.
It also looks like typical Ubisoft online slop where every area is instanced to hell. The whole game is basically an illusion.
Graphics while sailing are the only positive thing.
I've played 1 hour of the beta and uninstalled, talk about wasted time. I wouldn't play this shit again even if it was free.
It's REALLY bad, if you're thinking about trying the beta, don't even waste your time.
