It's a problem I believe with Ubisoft as a whole, thye year they really have made themselves look sexist and bad in many ways, this was a very bad year marketwise for Ubisoft. <br /><br />You won't like how unity treats Elise, you'll see once you play it, graphic wise it looks beautiful at times, but Arno is probably the weakest main character yet for Assassin Creed, he feels to me a cheap copy of Ezio with none of the his depths and charms. But there are some good elements in it so worth playing at least once I feel.oliver simpsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00153675796879872038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876216494183628999.post-15695292743781828042014-11-19T17:29:02.432-08:002014-11-19T17:29:02.432-08:00I wanted to play Watch_Dogs but all of the reviews...I wanted to play Watch_Dogs but all of the reviews were pretty scathing. It also touched on several nerves with its use of disposable female characters to up the male leads angst and its use of sex-trafficking. Overall, though, I'm loving Rogue and will be having a review out for it soon. <br /><br />Awesome-awesome game.<br /><br />Unity, I'm holding off on until they patch it a few times. Far Cry 4 is another game I have on my list.CTPhippshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04226189019351004118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876216494183628999.post-38824322803918324392014-11-19T14:39:28.600-08:002014-11-19T14:39:28.600-08:00That is exactly how I feel about the first Assassi...That is exactly how I feel about the first Assassin Creed Game, at here was a lot of potential there and something unique, but mired in a unlikeable main character in Altair (though he grew on me in revelations and the last book on him where I felt he came to really be humble). The modern days segments in this game feeling intrusive and uninteresting to me (this got rectify a bit later on I feel but Desmond never grew into an interesting character I feel personally). Though one thing I felt this game did right was the Templars when compared to Ezio's era where they became too bond villain in their methods and goals. Here while still extreme their goals and methods were to an extent understandable.<br /><br />This got rectified I felt from Assassin Creed 3 onwards with Rogue being maybe where they were portrayed the most believable I feel on a human level. <br /><br />You know another Ubisoft game that has got me feeling this like you do for this game... Watch Dog, with that game having some potential and premise mired by again a boring main character and other uninteresting elements in it. <br /><br />Wonder how Watch Dog 2 will come out as, will it be like AC" in realizing it's potential or will it end up being Prototype 2 and sink that series. <br /><br />Looking forward to your reviews on Rogue and Unity, played them recently myself and they provide some interesting compartments and as well as speculation on where the franchise goes next. <br /><br />I also have Dragon Age Inquisition to go through next when it comes tomorrow or Friday for me here in England.<br /><br />Also I'm wondering are you planning to do a review of Interstellar in the future by any chance, I imagine you would have a few interesting things to say about Nolan's latest film, I must admit it left me feeling a lot of different feelings.oliver simpsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00153675796879872038noreply@blogger.com
