The Good Doctor Posted March 14 Author Share Posted March 14 @BigBossBalrog https://www.psu.com/news/dragons-dogma-2-will-not-offer-multiple-save-files/ First bad news I’ve heard about DD2. There is apparently only one save file, so you won’t be able to make multiple characters unless you do so on completely separate profiles. That’ll suck. I’m hoping it’s a mistranslation but am not holding by breath considering the first game had this issue too. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Good Doctor Posted March 14 Author Share Posted March 14 Seriously though, the only surprising thing about this is that the bluntness of their confessions. Particularly where they just straight up admitted that the FBI are being used as Corporate tools: "The report reveals that the DHS intelligence office meets with gaming companies and that the companies can use these meetings to “share information with I&A [DHS’s intelligence office] about online activities promoting domestic violent extremism,” or even simply “activities that violate the companies’ terms of service.” Like, we all knew it, but it’s funny to see them so open about it. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But here we are Not many games do I consider masterpiece's or close to them but for a pirate game Black Flag was def the goat. I'm honestly incredibly disappointed in Skull and Bones. The harpooning section at the twenty second mark just looks painful to experience, like tf is that random RNG with a crosshair? There are parts of the world with missions that require to for example harvest a tree, issue being these islands for quests like that have 1-2 trees you can harvest and they take FOREVER to respawn. The grind is ungodly. Graphically black flag still even looks better imo, just prettier and a much better atmosphere. I don't want to full rant on the forum but man I'll leave it at this, I genuinely wanted to work for Ubisoft one day when I was younger and it brings an actual tear to my eye seeing what they have become now a days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem with Ubisoft is they’re so big with so many branches that it’s difficult to sift through the sea of crap to find the teams and projects that are actually worth a damn. Like, I wouldn’t blame anybody for having written off the Assassins Creed franchise many years ago, since the "Ubisoft" vision for them has completely changed from what it started as. I certainly did. But lo and behold, the latest game, Mirage, is the closest a sequel has resembled to the original AC1. A genuinely good assassin game that just randomly got made after many years of Ubisoft’s crappy period piece RPGs. Reason why is that it was developed by "Ubisoft Bordeaux"… who are a completely different team from those who worked on every other AC game. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've still yet to try Mirage but I want to just waiting for a good sale or it to come to gamepass. But yeah, the different studios under Ubisoft being drastically different is a huge thing as well. I directly wanted to work for Ubisoft Montreal mostly, the ones who went on to make Siege one of my favorite games of all time. But they were also the ones who made multiple Far Cry games (including 3), Splinter Cells, Watch Dogs, A few others but most importantly for this convo they were also the ones behind AC:4. So, at least imo one of the core studios for Ubi. I want to have hope for them but especially in the last year or so Ubi Mon has not been doing so hot, worse than years previously.

Elden Clown Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Small bit I just wanted to add on, Ubisoft was my favorite studio growing up until about the time I meet Czar and we started to play Divinity Original Sin 2 then I fell in love with Larian, Larian is so nice <3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made some greats but are also responsible for the series going off a cliff and turning into a bad Witcher copy-cat. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ve really improved a lot. Couldn't agree more on Obsidian, they are up there for me as well. CDPR while I love the witcher, I still have yet to finish any of the games and I honestly can't say how I feel about Cyberpunk, my feelings for it are convoluted for sure lol. As for Capcom those remasters have been killer! The newer games as well. Though now that you mention them with Dragon's Dogma 2 coming out I plan on going back and playing the first one soon as I never even came close to finishing it. So if you happen to have any tips or things to say about the first game please do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Good Doctor Posted March 15 Author Share Posted March 15 With the 2.0 update and Phantom Liberty, Cyberpunk 2077 has grown into one of my favorite games ever. Only rivaled in recent years by Pillars of Eternity. I was really impressed by the first Dragon's Dogma, but I never actually beat it either. Game is big, and the launch of Elden Ring cut my playthrough short. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Game is big, and the launch of Elden Ring cut my playthrough short. I think the biggest thing with Cyberpunk for me is not really CDPR's issue/problem and that is I have a 144hz monitor but only a RTX 3060 so even will DLSS at like medium settings I'll have drops that during things like missions and combat at least an in the open city can be rough feeling. I know more so my fault for getting so used to higher fps but I also fell for the good ol G-Sync, it doesn't work as well as people make it out too. Although the bits I have played especially with good performance are really fun and good. I love driving around night city, it's gorgeous, sometimes I'll turn off dlss and even upscale it a bit just for a cinematic drive. Something about not messing up in the combat and chaining stuff together just feels pretty unique in Cyberpunk imo. All this said I pose the question to really everyone on the forum, how'd ya feel if CDPR announced they were doing a first person star wars game that takes place in the imperial city? Allow them to do it M rated and I think they could do it well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allow them to do it M rated and I think they could do it well. On one hand, it would probably have the best writing in a Star Wars game since KotOR2 and CDPR would no doubt capture the look and feel of the world in a way that no one ever has. I’ve got no doubt they’d do a good job, and I’d definitely play it. On the other, I’d consider it a bad use of CDPR’s time and talents for them to focus on Star Wars instead of something more worthwhile. I don’t place much value in the IP since Disney took over and butchered so many aspects of it. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
