Well Assassins Creed is one of my favorite series of the current gen of games. My favorite is the second one. Anyways Assassins Creed 4 comes out this holiday and i really dont want this to get old. Since its release in 2008 there has been a release every year. Dont get me wrong im excited for 4 but its just there gonna make the series played out. i wish they would just take a brake between games. They already killed Call of duty making it like Madden with a game every year and that got old. they have done it with other titles im pretty sure. Im just curious do you support your favorite games with every year releases or do you believe they should let people enjoy the games they have now and wait between releases?
someone else touched on this on a youtube video i was watching, i agree, but at the same time its all about profit, and they can't keep making the games without the sales to make it worthwhile
they need to take it easy. but the reason is because of the ps4. the game probably has been in development during AC3 so it needs to be released. I hate COD / Madden they are like horror movies, same crap repeated and bought. I wish some companies would reinvent themselves or go back to classic stuff like mario did. just me though
personally as far as FPS games go, i dont think WWI has been explored enough, same with older wars etc, would and could give Gamers a new Experience rather than the same game rereleased every year just wish they'd mix it up a bit.
Agreed. But they haven't degraded in quality as badly as CoD has, so, for now, I'm not too concerned. I'm actually excited for AC4, they are most likely going to capitalize on the ship-based combat that made AC3 so awesome.
Jeez, I haven't even finished AC3. So soon... AC has gone downhil for me, really. Didn't quite like 1, loved 2+Brotherhood+Revelations, I'm meh on 3; which is why I haven't finished it. PS Vita one was... well, it was mobile. Not much else to be said for it.
I bought the first Assassin Creed back in late 2007 on PS3 unfortunately I sold it off before I even complete it. I never played the rest of AC series. I think it the good time for me to buy all AC series on PS3. However I can see the pattern here that Ubisoft copy Activision market strategy style. Need to take a break for AC series until the newer audience to see it in the future or otherwise they eventually get sick and tire of hearing or seeing the Assassins creed franchise.
It depends on the developer, the game, and the community. Competitive games should be left alone for sure; there's nothing worse than a week 1 balance patch caused by excessive bitching from inexperienced players who know nothing about a new game. Competetive games should be well thought out and viable for much longer periods than a year, otherwise they're boring and ultimately not very deep. If the developer's goal is just to make money then there really isn't much to be said, if customers buy it then developers are going to make it
I heard this quote from a call of duty review and I think it works well with most games that are constantly being revamped and shoved out like cod and (hopefully not) AC. "Whenever something good gets popular, it will eventually get destroyed, because somebody wants to just make fucking money"
You know, I've never played an AC game, just watched someone play the first one for a bit. I've been thinking about picking up AC3, but IIRC there's some sort of future story intertwined where some dude is reliving his past lives as these various assassins. Are they still doing that? That is, do I need to play the previous AC games to "get" the third one?
There's a lot of franchises that really just need to calm down with the releases. Assassins Creed, Call of Duty, Battlefield, among others. I can understand why sports games come out every year (roster updates, and a need to pay off that licence), but having these games coming out yearly just dilutes the quality to the point that, with CoD especially, each games just becomes a rehash of the last ones. It's probably because publishers are scared of paying to develop any new IPs, and just want to use something that already has a fanbase to leech off of.
