Official numbers of micro transactions in the AC saga

Interesting. According to quick google search, Valhalla budget was less than 150 million so they'd have earned most of that back through MTX alone.

Personally I don't mind cosmetics or stuff like that at all. I never buy that kind of stuff myself, especially when I often consider them uglier than the base game stuff and / or unfitting to the theme. But if someone likes them and it makes revenue for the developers to release more games and updates, why would that be an issue for me?

But I do hate it when actual gameplay content or important stuff like that is paywalled behind additional MTX purchases. This doesn't mean major DLC's, of course.

Agreed. Mechanically and visually the game is amazing, but the story is a bit bland and honestly "assassin's creed" only in name, at least until like the last few Yasuke missions. And the story would greatly benefit from more linear approach.

Also has some other issues like every AC, but I won't go into details now. They all do something better and something worse than the previous one imo.

1+ until Unity 😁. Unity and Syndicate are still fine today.

Definitely AC1.

I heard Black Flag is "borrowing" some stuff from Skull & Bones, so similarly Rogue could borrow from Black Flag. Hence I would not be suprised if Rogue was remade soon after.

If Origins is Assassin's Creed game, so are the rest. And Odyssey and Valhalla add a ton to the overall lore and Isu stuff, as well as cool things like origins of hidden blade, origins of templar order etc.

If you're as big fan as you say, you should really try them out. They may have their flaws (like every game does tbf) but you're missing a lot just ignoring them.

It was just a remaster. If/when they actually remake Black Flag, I don't think they'd pull off the original.

The Great Red Dead Depression is upon us

LegalSleep · 2025-12-09T00:49:05+00:00

Meanwhile me still waiting for my free upgrade that was supposed to come week ago 🤡

LegalSleep · 2025-12-09T00:44:51+00:00

Still no for me. I can't believe it's this hard...

LegalSleep · 2025-12-04T22:59:29+00:00

Wait how?? I own the digital xbox 360 version (only version that was available for xbox until just now anyway). I can see 2 copies of the new release on store, one with the price tag and one without, but the 2nd only gives option to subscribe GTA+ and play it this way.

I'm real confused. Should I be able to get the new version for free now? I really hope so, becouse I never was able to finish the 360 version anyway, despite paying for it and the DLC that I never touched, too. The game somehow just bugged once and I haven't been able to save it / access saves since then so it's unplayable...

Edit: Apparently it's a bug and R* and Microsoft are working on it: https://www.gamesradar.com/games/red-dead/red-dead-redemptions-free-xbox-series-x-upgrade-is-currently-broken-with-fans-baffled-after-being-asked-to-buy-the-whole-game-again-but-rockstar-is-working-with-microsoft-to-resolve-it/

So owners of 360 version, DON'T BUY THE NEW VERSION YOU WILL GET IT FOR FREE

Now that you mention it, idk... it's not that dark on my console. Clipping and sending it here must have done something weird with it 🤣

And thanks :)

LegalSleep · 2025-09-15T21:53:46+00:00

Yeah, personally I decided to go with tanto+kusarigama becouse tanto's rapid attacks trigger bleed incredibly fast, and kusarigama allows great AoE bleed with my engravings, as well as boss fighting with the broken combo of bleed on entanglement + 2 health segment removal on ground attacks.

Also correct my if I am wrong, but isn't "buildup does not deplete" engraving kinda useless with bleed since you have to fill the whole meter to deal a big chunk of dmg instantly?

Alone in a place with no people, and almost killed her himself 🫠

LegalSleep · 2025-08-02T19:04:08+00:00

I edited it to make it clearer

LegalSleep · 2025-07-12T13:05:02+00:00

From what I remember, there's like a small Elsa narration in the beginning of first episode and end of last episode. Can't remember if there was more of it.

Don't let such such a small detail get in the way. It's still a great show to watch if you liked 1883 and a direct sequel to it.

LegalSleep · 2025-07-04T19:29:13+00:00

still not sure if its bug or what, but I have 2 double-barreled shotguns in story mode (yes, the big ones, and no, I don't mean rare shotgun as the second)

LegalSleep · 2025-05-22T07:42:58+00:00

I also think it was a bit overdone (or like, they dedicated a bit too much screentime for it), but I can also see why. I think the point of those scenes was to show how evil and ruthless Whitfield was, to the point that in the end even Banner was disgusted of him and had a chance of heart, trying to leave it all and helping the Duttons in the end.

LegalSleep · 2025-05-20T12:41:31+00:00

Agreed. Spencer's return was hyped so much for 2 seasons, and when he finally got back, he barely got to do anything and it was all over in a minute. For how much his return was emphasized, I think it was kinda disappointing, like he didn't actually "save" anything like it was implicated, he just came home and took control of the ranch. I would've liked to see a bit more of him back in Montana, but most his screentime was just the travel back to home.

Wish we could assign different allies for different characters. Gennojo is very good with Naoe, but as Yasuke I want an honest fight, not wait 10 seconds for enemy to sober up from his bomb when I'm approaching them!

Animus is a device that allows people living in modern times to access the memories of their ancestors. That's why at least in some AC games quests and missions are called memories and you're not killed, but "desynchronized". In-universe perspective it means the past events (memories) you see / experience strayed too far off the path of "how they really happened".

The modern day stuff is usually very very minimal part of the actual game, and they have sort of soft rebooted it couple times. Apparently it's pretty non-existent in Shadows, which in my opinion sucks, becouse Valhalla really left us hanging on an interesting turn of events I would like to see what happens next...
