Wow, I think you need to read some basic theory and learn a little thing about democratic centralism. Revolution and liberation will be achieved by empowering the vanguard of the party and obeying their decisions on behalf of the people rather than putting staff in danger. But I think it's pretty obvious that this is not the place for this discussion because none of y'all are capable of having it.
Quote:So these fragile, miserable weirdos are so hurt and upset by someone disagreeing with their polluted, made up racist head canon that AC: Shadows is disrespectful of Japanese culture because there's a black man, that they misspell the name of the god they say deserves respect, attack a person of Japanese heritage who directed a lauded game about Japanese mythology portraying said god as a heroic wolf, a game called Okami because it can mean both "great god" and "wolf", while being ignorant of even basic facts about the game like what animal the player character is, and hating on dogs.
It's just indescribable how pathetic, delusional, disingenuous and shitty these whiny anti-games cultists trying to stifle creative freedom and force their political agenda are. They really need to be told constantly by everyone everywhere to shut up and fuck off until they actually do.
It's nice to see Kamiya (and the Assassin's Creed social media person) aid in that endeavor.
Quote:It's not very encouraging to see that most of you see this thead as some amusing side activity. Something to laugh at and then forget about later.
I'm not gonna repeat what I really feel about these people, because it got me banned for longer than I would have anticipated, but at what point will you take
all of this history seriously?
At what point are actions going to be taken?
Your sitting President agrees with all the ridiculous shit you might brush off as demented lunacy.
He has called in the assist from the dumbest, but richest man in the world, to strip your democracy of it's basic fundamentals.
It's not enough to call these people pathetic online.
Let me keep it at that, lest I get banned again.
Holy fuck.

Using “creative freedom” from a game with a $700 Million budget, two hours of staff credits, released by ubisoft. Amazing.
Do they even have a thread about the continuing trial of Ubisoft sexual harassment and hostile work environments? Like in an update last week the union wanted the CEO on trial. And how they’ve continued withholding evidence.
Is it so simple to get these guys ball washing corporations? The plan: Harvey Weinstein produces Lu Bu, starring Mahershala Ali. Directed by Marc Webb.
New version of the grift I guess

I need help: why am I arguing over a game, on ResetEra, that the studio arbitrarily has one of their protagonists weaker than the other. I just need to realize the game kinda sucks compared to its ancestors in the franchise while it being unrelated in part to asinine decisions made in both said game and its ancestors. My vagueness is because I slightly care to not catch a ban.

No, chuds hate video games now. Gaming is for the communists!

There’ll be multiple moments in this guy’s life where this hits him. That period of time between putting down the phone and falling asleep. Alone with his thoughts. It’ll pop up: “I spent $70 because a brand account on Twitter made a joke.”
How do you come back from that?

Being fair, Elon is so shallow that is believable that hurt him.
Not going to buy your game, anyway, Ubisoft.
Ac shadows will be $40 bucks in 2 months. And it won’t be worth it then, either.

At least he's open about being a sociopath motivated by spite. Self identifying as a cancer, which is really weird. The dream is to visit Akihabara, walk past every other tourist, and yell "MIZU TO PIZA DESU" in perfect duolingo at an exhausted Filipino 7-eleven clerk. That'll show somebody somewhere.
I know this doesn't tell the whole story but these steam numbers look low

I think we won't actually know what's going on with Shadows for a while.
The numbers look "good enough" and Ubisoft seems to be making happy noises, but there's a lot of context that isn't getting brought up:
1. Ubi is on a chain of weird failures and misfires...meaning the pressure on Shadows is even higher
2. AC in Japan was The Great Idea for the series going back like, 10 years. The fanbase has been clamoring for this setting. Even if we take it at face value, is "2nd highest player count for the series" good, relative to those expectations and fan demand?
We're not gonna know until shoes start to drop (or don't) sometime in the summer, probably.

Honestly, I prefer playing Tales of Kenzera right now over UbiSlop, if only because I want to play it before it leaves PlayStation Plus Extra next month.

It has all become a bit more vague because Ubi has its own subscription service too and then they release statements like 2 million players but not copies sold. So far I assume that it's doing alright but since it's below AC Valhalla it might also be below what Ubi hoped for

Every response would just be a variation on
“Actually, it’s the exact opposite of what you said”
Not like you guys are any better than them... but go off I guess. Musk and Grummz are massive losers. AC Shadows is great.
Most of us aren’t defending Grummz or Elon Musk.
