******* on twitter licking Ubisoft's boots "defending" this game will always amuse me. Imagine living your life to end up as a cocksleeve for multi-billion dollar corporations.

Imagine someone translating the Bible to another language, and instead of trying to stay as faithful to the text as possible, surmounting the challenges of different vocabularies, idioms, cultural norms, sentence structures et al, they decide they are the better writer, and instead of translating, they start writing their own Bible fanfic while pretending they're doing a faithful translation, changing character personalities, stories, endings etc.

Thats because Ubisoft didnt put their games on steam during Odysee launch etc. they came crawling back a few years ago. Also these games were cracked when they came out and most people probably buy them physical for console.

Odyssey was on Steam when it launched, I bought it for like $10 using my third world currency account.

Weren't AC games exclusively sold on ubisoft's store until relatively recently?

I am not 100% certain. But didnt it release a year earlier on other platforms? Think I recently read that somewhere, but I cant remember where.

No. Valhalla was not on Steam at release tho. Might have been on the Epic store?

Mirage came to Steam a year late. I don't think Rumble did

Maybe was that instead. Either way 50k peak is nothing for a game like that when monsterhunter wilds has 1000k +

weebs went full sjw for brown people while japs go full hillary clinton in parliament

Can someone explain in English?

I simply wanna know what people are arguing about and which side Rusty is on so I can take the opposite side and argue why he's wrong.

TLDR Rusty hates the Japanese and loves AC:Shadows because the game reviewer right-masquerading e-celeb grifters hate AC:Shadows and yammer endlessly about respecting the Nips.

Rusty was angry about KCD2 going woke, because he saw it as a deep betrayal of many things he loves (brotherhood, medieval European life and values, etc). Like, Rusty was really angry. You remember what happens when Rusty is genuinely angry about something, right? Right.

The same people who seem to make their living ******** on the "safe" target of AC:Shadows were at the same time slobbering on KCD2's knob. Gradually Rusty began to hate them.

The people who praised KCD2 as historically accurate and the GOAT were at the same time screeching that AC:Shadows didn't HECKIN RESPECT WAPANESE CULTCHA. Remember, Rusty now hates these ******* because they yelled at the chuds for not wanting a gay pedobait Hans Capon and Jew Golem corpse-munching in their medieval Bohemia bro simulator.

Therefore, they are also lying about AC:Shadows, which is now more historically accurate than KCD2 because Rusty hates the people trying to **** on it (loving something because the people you hate don't like it is unironically based btw). Also Japan is not worthy of anything but mockery because these people keep screeching that JAPANESE CULTURE SHOULD BE RESPECTED!!! Hating something because the people you hate love it is also unironically based btw.

So now Rusty loves AC:Shadows and hates Japan.

Completely understandable.

I would've expected extra effort as they probably know their jobs are on the line. Maybe this is their best.

So called "legendary" "director" seemingly doesn't understand the hate for Shadows. It reminds me of what @gerey said in another thread - many old devs just don't understand why their game got popular in the first place or gained cult following, but get put on a pedestal anyway by fucktard zoomers as being "geniuses" that were the masterminds behind their game's success; talk about a ******* halo effect.

Another thing I've observed is these devs' stunning lack of cultural awareness and understanding. But Kamiya goes one step further and advocates for the silent majority's "it doesn't bother me so it's fine" stance to be more prevalent in gaming - because that's just what we need. Just another reminder of how gaming ended up where it is today - because of twats like Kamiya.

Where the credits read like a ******* novel. Just how much money did they waste on this ******* slop?

I truly wonder how these are same developers that made such legendary classics when making such ******** statements ,that even the most brain dead normie slop consumer could tell that everything he said was being ******* stupid.

Another aspect that I usually see at play with these has-beens is that they got older, they married and now have children. Having children especially, combined with dropping testosterone counts, seems to change their personalities, they're suddenly ashamed of what they were doing in the past and get more concerned about what kind of "legacy" they're leaving behind.

Die a visionary or live long enough to become a ****.

Most estimates put the budget at 250 to 350 million dollars, but I've heard some speculate that the budget might have been as high as 900 million dollars.

I'm skeptical about the later figure, since that's basically Skull and Bones territory, but I can't dismiss it out of hand. The game was in development since 2017, had a gargantuan team size that was much bigger than the S&B team, shitloads of contractors were working on it, was rebooted at least once from scratch and suffered multiple delays.

What we know is that it cost a lot to make, despite how cheap it looks, plays and sounds, and that Ubisoft desperately needs it to not just break even, but to be a massive success that would offset Outlaws, S&B and all the other failed projects they've had in the past few years.

******* lol. The cope is real.

The other possible explanation - which is possibly even more disgusting - is these old farts trying to gain some kind of relevancy and attach some hype around their name for their next project. Kamiya has doubled down on his stance and made numerous tweets by this point acting more and more antagonist and faggoted. I won't even bother adding a link - just look at his profile and scroll from top to bottom. https://x.com/HidekiKamiya_X

The dude averages anywhere between 10 - 250 likes but that one tweet he made previously garnered him a lot of attention. Either way, I totally understand the contempt many people have for game devs.

Sanctimonious, whiny hacks who love jerking off to themselves and crying about "gamers bad" when they act like ******* baboons. Or get increasingly confrontational and aggressive and double-down on their stupidity using their position as a justification ("I'm a game developer/ 'director', you're not"). I don't think there is a single job in this world (a substantive one anyways), where the worker whines as much as they do about their ******* customers, than a game developer. On one hand, I'm glad these arrogant pricks get to publicly out themselves thanks to the internet. On the other, I'm not sure how much that even matters since they have so many bootlickers lined up and ready to service them. Oh how I wish these idiots would just shut up, make their game and then **** off into the void.

Don’t worry the coming recession will put many of these game developers at out of work sucking **** at truck stops where they ******* belong .However knowing them they would probably enjoy it.

[NezahualDoomer]

This **** game is a Japan humiliation ritual, they refuse to become multicultural so they are doing this to **** on them.

Also they hate male gamers that is why they made the protagonist black and the woman ugly.

And the game just looks like the typical garbage we have seen for years, I don't know you but I think *** as sin creed games are normie slop.

I won't review this because I don't want to give money to You Be Soft but also I can't justify the torture of playing this ****.

But I did a video on the subject where I explain the whole humiliation ritual if you guys are interested.

"In 2022, Japan received 144 000 new immigrants on a long-term or permanent basis (including changes of status), 150% more than in 2021. This figure comprises 55% labour migrants, 41% family members (including accompanying family) and 1% humanitarian migrants. Around 167 000 permits were issued to tertiary-level international students and 224 000 to temporary and seasonal labour migrants."

It already started for Japan. I agree on it being a humiliation ritual, this is propaganda after all, but to say the Japanese Government is not complacent with importing ******* and ********* is wrong. They see it as a necessary solution instead of trying to solve the issues leading to declining birth rates and social isolation. Just like every other government facing similar issues.

Feel really sorry for the Japanese, but I guess that when the day comes and all the native hardworking population has successfully been replaced by filthy street-shitters who would rather starve to death than find a job, the ****** Jap government may start to regret its decisions.
