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.

Right. I think programmable shaders were adopted fairly early on consoles (xbox360/ps3) (2 Days ago)

@toelessfoot: Well, only recently they have been. I think this is the first gen I've seen where PC's are playing catch up. Not through hardware power, but through development cycles (2 Days ago)
toelessfoot
Yeah I think innovations on the console side are taken up more quickly by PC than vice versa because consoles are really lead platform for everything (2 Days ago)
MrWhite
At least for most gamers. Similar to when everything went to pci-e (3 Days ago)

I think we could be seeing a dramatic shift in PC hardware where it'll be essential to own both an SSD and a next gen card with the api's to use them. That also would probably require new motherboards (3 Days ago)
MrWhite
If a game is built from the ground up to take advantage of that, though... (3 Days ago)
