i'm finding it really hard to care about this. it's clearly changed fundamental aspects of it's gameplay. but it's also not changed enough to look different enough from their past entries. i mean, i don't know about anyone else, but the last thing i wanted from a new AC after a 2 year absence is a bigger, emptier world to explore. even the story elements seem uninteresting and the voice work and lip syncing is poor too. it just seems like a poor return for the franchise. but i'm sure it'll sell gangbusters.

"bigger, emptier world to explore"
as it should be! its an ancient egypt, man, there cannot be only "smaller, filled" Alexandria, as it was for Paris in Unity for example.
all i know is syndicate turned into a chore because the streets were too wide to traverse in a quick and fun manner. they now have a huge empty desert to traverse, which sounds about as fun as...well...slowly walking across a desert. lol

on a camel! :D
btw we still didnt see gameplay in huge sities, so maybe there will be enouth space for parkour. i think sities there will be like rome in brotherhood, where horse and parkour were 50\50 in terms of traverse
p.s. dunno, carriage riding were pretty fun for me

The world looks amazing, its stuff like mission design, story and some aspects of gameplay that im worried about
the one i saw a few weeks back where he got bonked on the head and basically went on a convoluted fetch quest talking to badly voiced children in a pyramid didn't fill me with hope.
I don't know about ya'll but 'm super hyped about this game. I have a feeling they're gonna revive "the First Civilization" storyarch. It's what made me a fan of Assassin's Creed games in the first place.

massive downgrades coming from the staples achieved w/ the Halo 3 sandbox/physics, with Dice/BField it should never be a trade-off, ony thing they should be trading its engine if it isnt up 3 the job (3 Days ago)

Halo keeps being this Sonic title bait & switch "will their next title be able to Look up par with its current gen counterparts"? Never. Even Halo 4 who was pretty good on Campaign suffered from (3 Days ago)

tech? I dunno, go get some insight of Activision (the good input, not the misogyny), all they COD devs make evident generation leaps tech-wise. Do they keep being the same core IP? I think so. (3 Days ago)
nostradamus
so Halo must be thet bottomb of the barrel FPS to keep its identity. Add some negligible subsurface scattering reflections or some other tech only possible now and call it the day copy/pasting the ol (3 Days ago)

yea but, would it be halo then? (3 Days ago)

engines. I mean, If you can have a PS3 Ratchet & Clanck that looks like a vaseline ps3 game, and a PS5 Ratchet&Clack that looks like a goddamn next-gen game, why can't Halo Evolve - Ugly FPS Seal™ (4 Days ago)
nostradamus
Halo Infinite sure is one ugly damn game. Pretty obvious nothing is going to massible change if the Ip doesn't die and start from the ground up with another publisher/dev that doesn't retread the ol (4 Days ago)
