Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced is a Resident Evil level remake
Almost everything has been changed in the game. Tailing missions don’t just not auto fail, most tailing missions have been outright replaced with new missions with new dialogue from the same actors!

Eventually, even digital data will no longer be owned by individuals on their own initiative. Whenever there is a major change or accident in the world, in a country, in a government, in an idea, in a trend, access to it may suddenly be cut off.
FromSoftware president Hidetaka Miyazaki has made it clear that the studio will continue focusing on creativity instead of making “safe” sequels just to satisfy investors.
He believes that giving developers the freedom to create what they are passionate about is key to making truly valuable games.
“We are able to freely create the games we want to make without excessive interference,” Miyazaki said, adding that maintaining this environment is important for delivering “truly valuable games.”
Miyazaki wants future entries in series like Elden Ring or Bloodborne to happen because the team has strong ideas for them.
If you’re ever having a bad day, just know there’s someone out there who is playing blind. They spent hours exploring every inch of Liurnia and still haven’t found the way to get up to this spot, not realizing it’s locked behind a quest.
Huge win for gamers and consumer rights!
The California State Assembly just passed AB 1921, the Protect Our Games Act.
It passed on the floor by a vote of 43 to 16.
The bill would force video game companies to give players a heads-up before they shut down the servers for a game.
It would also make them provide a way for people to keep playing afterward, like adding offline mode or letting community servers take over.
Quick recap of what the bill does:
>60-day advance notice before any server shutdown or major service change that would make a game unplayable in its “ordinary use.”
>Companies must then provide a workable solution so players can keep playing, usually an offline mode/patch, community server support, or (in some cases) a full refund.
>Applies to digital games first sold or substantially re-released in California after January 1, 2027.
>Does not affect subscription games, free-to-play titles, or games that are already permanently offline/single-player.
>Enforceable by the Attorney General or district attorneys.
In short: If you buy a game, you should still be able to play it even after the company moves on.
No more “purchase” turning into a rental that expires when the servers die.
