Yup its so fucking retarded, always a slap in the face of actual consumers paying money for this shit

I saw this coming. It makes the people who actually have to buy the game feel like they're losing out.

I think the way the industry handles their releases is pure dog

Pay $10-$20 more for early access while you toss free copies for this so called increase of "engagement". Early access my a$$.

Reviews looks as i expected. Any news about the pc version? I hope its well opimized

Arsemouldgold is playing it now. Looks fine. Ass ass creed games tend to be fine on PC.

Only 12 if you use vpn trick with Xbox or Ubiconnect on pc

I'll never use a vpn for a launcher on pc, one wrong click and you're in the store and boom your account gets nuked for trying to avoid regional pricing.
No vpn needed for xbox console btw, just change the region in settings.

Well I read people used it a lot before on Ubiconnect and never had a problem, I think I will just start it tomorrow and disconnect from the internet

But account being nuked would be bad Ive got all those Ubisoft games on there lol

 

[saintjules]

 

[Gonzito]

I think that it will probably be possible for Xbox and PC players to play the game already today by changing region to NZ. On pc its slightly more difficult, the user has to use VPN but I have done this with many Ubisoft games on their launcher and it works well.

 

[EviLore]

Cool movie, and something Ubisoft would never be able to pull off.

 

[Peroroncino]

Hey, I loved that movie.

Still listen from time to time to this banger:

Most fun I've had in an open world AC game that I went out of my way to get the platinum for it. Really loved the ancient Greece setting and Kassandra was a very cool MC.

yes amazing kassandra
so cool indeed INCREDIBLY powerful as well

 

[Luipadre]

Bought it on steam. Ready to jump in tomorrow. Watched the first 30 min or so. Looks great except the cutscenes and cutscene transitions

Odyssey is probably one of the best open world games of the entire PS4/XBO gen as far as I'm concerned.

Friendly reminder:

Someone please do us all a solid and take a screenshot of the intro blurb telling us how many genders, sexualities and lizards helped put this piece of shit together.

Gonna play this with a framed picture of my man Chuck Berry on top of the TV for maximum immersion.

It's live on Ubi plus with NZ trick.
Set vpn to NZ
Start game from .exe file on desktop or files folder.

 

[Agent_4Seven]

The wait is killin' me...

 

[gtabro]

Hearing the reviewers say "the stealth is janky at times" and seeing enemies freeze in place a second before a killing animation is fucking embarrassing when you've been developing this series for 18 years.

Rockstar could though I feel

 

[Arsic]

No kidding! the animation for the combat looks really bad....

There is huge difference with animation quality. Say what you want about FROM games being "not high tech enough" but they absolutely nail the animation and feel of the combat.

What in Christ is this shit on the bottom

 

[TrebleShot]

Nah dont think so.

Do Yasuke and Naoe have different story specific missions or can you play as whoever in any given mission?

If you mean the second gif thats AC Shadows.

 

[Arsic]

If you mean the second gif thats AC Shadows.

It looks so janky there hahaha.

I thumbed through an asmongold (retard) video that got fed into my YT algorithm of him playing shadows, and I was super impressed by what I saw. Visuals, combat, music, gear and how it looks.

Idk if his videos goal was to shit on it or not but it sold me on it. Gonna pre order later today for ps5 pro.

 

[Bartski]

just woke up, allnighter prep routine in progress

 

[Gonzito]

I am playing on pc now, just started it. Let's see how it goes

 

[Windle Poons]

Buy it for PS5 Pro or rent it for Series X… decisions, decisions…

 

[Gonzito]

Buy it for PS5 Pro or rent it for Series X… decisions, decisions…

If you care about performance and graphics go for Pro man

 

[Arsic]

Pre ordered on pro and downloaded.

 

[Windle Poons]

Yeah think I'll go Pro.

Will wait a couple of days so I can gauge people's reactions who have spent real money and not been sent a copy from Ubisoft mind you.

 

[Gonzito]

Okay first impressions, the combat is better than I thought, it has impact and it feels really good, I really love parries. Animations are good, they feel tight, the character movement has weight and it doesn't feel floaty.

Performance on pc is really good although I am playing on a 4090 so take this with a grain of salt but I dont have any stuttering or fps drops

Graphics look really good in general, no complaints so far

And the story has really grabbed me, the dialogues and cinematography is a step forward coming from the previous games

So far I am happy and surprised, I'll keep reporting papitos
