Whether this gets me kicked from the Extra Credit program, I don't really care. It felt good to let out my grievances in a respectful way. The players are upset and us content creators represent the players. So I added my two cents. I hope things change going forward. #Wizard101
@Shortypie Bro imagine if ray was actually that size. omg imagine a "shadow of the colossus" style pokemon game where instead of killing the titans you catch the legendaries
My main concerns with Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced so far:
- Hunting, while I do think removing the QTEs is an improvement as mentioned previously in a comment, ALL animals should go down with 2-3 swings OR a SINGLE gunshot. Damage Sponges do NOT belong in AC4 and are immersion breaking. This is a balance change and should hopefully be easy to implement by launch
- The removal of Hidden Blade combat, this simply is a step down from the original and should return, plus picking up enemy weapons should return.
- The menus and HUD: They are functional, but being identical to Shadows is seriously disappointing and loses a lot of AC4's identity. even the font is identical to the one in Shadows. This can be fixed by bringing back the Black/Gold theme and adjusting the font to match the original, plus adding some more pirate themed aspect to the menus
- Cutscenes: I already spoke about this yesterday, but RPG generic cutscenes do NOT belong in AC4, seeing this implemented into AC4 is hugely disappointing when they managed to have all scenes motion captured 13 years ago, they don't look good and overall detract from the game as a whole.
- Health bars should be turned off by default, I know the HUD is customizable but the default experience needs to always be the ideal one, so these should be off.
Overall, Black Flag Resynced is about 85% of the way towards being an ideal remake IMO. Mission design, open world, graphics, combat, stealth, exploration, all look to be massively improved over the original and for many, that alone makes this replace the original game as a whole for revisiting AC4.
But that final 15% if achieved, could result in this truly being a perfect remake and while launch is just around the corner, Crimson Desert has proven you CAN implement changes of this level in just a month, so I hope Ubisoft Singapore can pull this off by July. I am very excited for this remake and want it to be that massive celebratory moment for the franchise as a whole so badly, so fingers crossed they listen to the feedback and nail it by launch.
@TheHibikiAo Ita unironically so bad. They say its "f2p" friendly but you HAVE to have premium level units to even stand a chance. And than you still get bodied
