It’s a lot of fun. It retains a bit from the other RPG titles but fixes a lot from it too, especially with the Assassin part of it. I really hope Ubisoft takes this and actually gives it’s planned sequals some time instead of just going straight to releasing another game a year or two later.

It’s a bit of the same, it returns a lot closer to the older AC Games though. For example, a lot of the mythology aspect is removed, and the side quests are a lot closer to the older Assassination Missions. It still uses the framework from the RPG games though (though it’s been heavily simplified from the tree that Valhalla had)

What’s the difficulty level of Black Mesa? I played the OG Half Life a few years ago and struggled a bit with it

I could only read a little bit until the site cut me off asking for a subscription, but this seems great. I would still majorly prefer if it was public, but even if it’s preserved somewhere the chances of it becoming lost become a lot lower

Damn, i didn’t realize they closed. Aren’t they the studio that made the Middle Earth games? I loved those, they were like AC met Tolkien, shame we may never get another

The world could always use more fishing games

Damn, i can’t imagine playing solo. I struggle just playing with two people sometimes. Major respect to you

The game can be brutal. I think my friend who hosts backs up the save every quota just in case, we’ve never had to use the backup for this save yet though (we’re about 4-5 quotas in i think?)

I just looked it up. It looks interesting. I’ve had some people recommend me REPO when talking about LC, but never Murky Divers. I’ll have to pick them both up at some point

I probably could lol. At this point i only keep it for consistency. It’d bother me just lobbing that bit off after 257 days

One of my friends that i played with has been wanting me to get it. I plan too at some point but i’ve seen some fun things about it

I came across a shrine today with a ton of cats, and ended up doing the exact same thing with my cats. The both of them sat on my lap will i pet them

Apparently it didn’t end with yesterday either. I played a bit of the game today and found myself in a Shrine filled with tons of cats

It’s a step in the right direction for sure compared to Valhalla. It simplified the bloat down, and it feels like there’s actually parkour now. I’m afraid I can’t compare it to mirage though as I haven’t played it yet.

I’d say if they liked origins though they’ll like this though. It reminds me a lot of origins, just with a bit of the grinding taken out

This is honestly the first I’m hearing of Open World fatigue. If I had to take a guess it’s a combination of the games playing differently, completely different stories, and different kinds of worlds. Idk though, maybe I’m just more tolerant is all

I almost did the same with my Black Flag playthrough. What I ended up doing was using the Steam Notes to save my Ubisoft password and copy and paste it in. Ik it’s horrible for security, but I was fed up with having to get my phone out and look at my keychain just to type out the long password

I love how like every once and a while we get games with random outlandish concepts like Untitled Goose Game or Squirrel with a Gun

That’s weird on the windows speeds. I believe mine is a 4.0x4 too and I got full speeds on everything. Id have to assume it’s a Windows issue though

I had a 1 TB one I used for the longest time. My only complaint is that it never played well with any of my Linux devices (Steam Deck randomly decided it was done reading it and I had to unplug it and my Bazzite device just locks up)

It’s definitely really pretty and runs pretty well too. I have it set to the base High Option and it runs at around 60 FPS for me with my specs (which is the max my monitor goes)
