Jeez, that Twitch rewards thing is why I don't play Ubisoft games. Can't even watch a video without some kind of manipulative hook

It's a lovely looking game for sure and if the gunplay is as good as the division it will play well too.

Not just the way they'd modelled the Cantina, but the way it was lit was just spot on

I normally wait for inevitable price drop on Ubi stuff these days, probably not in this case...

I don't think I have boycotted any company...if I like the look of the game, I will buy and that even includes EA 😉😂

If it weren't for the rewards I'd just be watching on YouTube, it's not uncommon for games companies to do it, so many things I've got for NMS and a really nice looking armour for Helldivers 2.

Ubi's attitude towards Steam users is what puts me off at the moment. Oh, you want to play new Assassin's Creed? We'll bring it to Steam a few years later, but without achievements. If we bring it to the most widely used platform at all.
Outlaws won't be on it, so please enjoy using either the Ubisoft launcher that never remembers your login details, or the Epic Games version that will also launch the Ubisoft launcher that never remembers your login details.

It does look great. And not icon-overloaded like the average Ubisoft open world. Nice.

I was quite pleased when I realised you could use console commands to add the NUSA outfit and a bunch of otherwise exclusive weapons to Cyberpunk 2077 without even having a Twitch account.

One of the most interesting things at the show for me, looks great and it's out soon too.

Guess they really threw away everything that was done in India if the Sands of Time remake isn't out until 2026.

I actually laughed out loud just now when I realised I had forgotten that Skull & Bones had been released already. I mean there's "to a lack of fanfare" and "in a void where sound cannot travel".

I've kinda lost all hope about that Sands of Time remake at this point, and Ubisoft apparently agrees.

Never gotten on well with the Anno games that I've tried. Always seems to come down to "I've done everything the tutorial told me to do, in the order it told me to do it, so why are these little cunts unhappy and not working"

A friendly reminder for people to try out POP: The Lost Crown if they havn’t already done so. It’s ace.

I wouldn't have minded being in that audience, those drums must have been doing a proper "Making your stomach vibrate with bass"

They sure know how to make a pretty game at ubi when they put their minds to it. Absolutely gorgeous.

I don't think I have boycotted any company...if I like the look of the game, I will buy and that even includes EA 😉😂 Not really boycotted but none of their big series appeal to me and if they release something that might, like the Prince of Persia game, it's easy to ignore
Sounds like they're pushing the online requirement for all their games again now (after recently removing access to one), so easy pass again
Don't think I play many EA games either tbh. Can't think of any EA (or Ubi) series that I'm invested in
Not calling for a boycott or anything though and not bothered if people play their games, just personally find thier tactics too gross to be party to

Combat is definitely weightier with the samurai character.

Outlaws looked cool, although also thought the combat looked a bit stilted. They have really captured the environments though and if I'm wrong about the combat than this could be THE modern Star Wars game.
The Prince of Persia section was a friendly reminder that I really need to play The Lost Crown. Looks like it is something I would really love. The Rogue Prince of Persia looked cool too and had completely passed me by.

Possibly still look like they are waiting to be hit though.
