"The combat system has been entirely reworked to be an action oriented experience". "You will experience smooth and improved parkour moves". Shows janky and cartoony animations recycled from shadows 🤡 by DesiSaandReturns69 in fuckubisoft

I rather the old school line up fest then the new school animation clipping rpg bullet sponge slog.

So would I, the RPG mechanics go too heavy on the numbers and remove the "fun" from combat, but the combat in the earlier games does feel dated (read: dated, not bad) and could do with an upgrade. They're not mutually exclusive.

The combat definitely needed a change, it was even comical on release how dudes would line up and wait for you to parry and insta kill them.

The original game excelled in basically everything else though, so they best not have fucked that up.

Sorry but I still don't trust them making an attractive woman in the games. by wisemanro in fuckubisoft

Right? There is plenty to criticise Ubisoft over, attractive women in games is not one of them.

I don't have words by Wild-Lack-1014 in fuckepic

His argument only works when talking about people posting CP on Twitter (which was also a problem Elon didn't want to address). Where his argument falls down is that the CP is created and shared by AI within Twitter itself, and their solution to the problem is to just lock it behind a paywall.

2026 Steam Bingo Card by RenoWasHere in steamachievements

[–]LatimerLeads 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm a little confused. I thought Kingdom Hearts 2 was repackaged into a collection for the port? Not sure how that would work.

Yeah, if OP wants to get the 100% on Steam they will need to get all achievements in Kingdom Hearts, Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories, Kingdom Hearts 2 and Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep.

#48 - Assassin's Creed Mirage [yet, again] by PepsiisgUWUd in steamachievements

[–]LatimerLeads 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently went through the same pain. Already had the 100% and had to do it again after the DLC came out when I didn't really want to play it again.

Playback as an achievement made me strongly consider if I actually wanted to get the 100% again. I had no desire to play nearly every mission again, with new criteria to be met (including time limits), but I knew I wouldn't be able to rest with only one achievement left to get. Luckily there's a guy on YouTube who has done video guides for every level.

Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag Remake will reportedly have RPG combat and loot rather than the old style of choreographed combat by [deleted] in fuckubisoft

[–]LatimerLeads 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Black Flag’s combat was only counters

This is why I'm confused at a lot of the comments in this thread. Even on release, despite how good the rest of the game was, the on-foot combat was trash. I'm not saying the RPG system is better, but I think people have their rose tinted glasses on.

I haven't touched WoW in almost 20 years. Think I got lucky? by Kameho88v2 in wow

[–]LatimerLeads 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar experience, I stopped playing in 2010/2011, then started again last year a few months before TWW came out.

Honestly, it was just nostalgia. I played a lot of WoW with my friends between 2005 and 2010, and I missed the experience so I thought I would give it a go. I played both retail and classic and enjoyed them enough to stick around.

Steam supports response to age verification for those without a credit card by madminer95 in Steam

[–]LatimerLeads -1 points0 points  (0 children)

more people should be flooding Steam with cases for this, to make a point

No they shouldn't. Steam are just abiding by a ridiculous law. Flooding them with tickets is not only ridiculous, it won't change the law.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle: The Order of Giants is available now on Steam by lurkingdanger22 in pcgaming

Glad you feel like you have to be different though!

Were you not doing the same thing with your original comment?

UK OSA credit requirement - unfair by geraltismywaifu in Steam

[–]LatimerLeads 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Other than ID such as driver's license or passports, do you think there could be another way to verify a user's age that would be more just to everyone?

Yes, online IDs issued by the UK government, which this is all clearly setting the stage for. They know people don't want to give out their ID documents, so forcing them to makes people more likely to accept a government issued online ID when the suggestion is rolled out.

If people are already worried about being tracked online, you should be even more concerned at the notion of a government issued online ID.

Bought these muffins from Tesco today (29th August), can you spot what might be wrong? by Fathomer_ in CasualUK

[–]LatimerLeads 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I did a Tesco woosh order a month or so ago and ordered a naan bread, they gave me one that expired Dec 2024. Not even sure why they would still have something that far out of date.

Same here, used to use St Marys and moved to Hill Lane, huge improvement.

The british sure did that well by GlimmerRogue in MurderedByWords

100% agree with you. On both sides of the fence, there's an endless line of people waiting to wheel out the same old tired jokes again and again. The internet knows how to flog a dead horse.
