What I'm REALLY interested about within Assassin's Creed 4 is: Do they still tell the story of what happens in present day, after you-know-who died?
Also, have I ever introduced to my little friends?

I thought Pirates of the Carribean online was a realistic pirate game. Except for the fact you have to buy everything with RL money.

if a pirating game had no kind of pirate activity I would be bitterly disappointed with it really.

Re: Discussion: Video Games
Commanding your own ship. Keeping it maintained. Sinking other ships. That was the pirates life for me.
That, and trying to find that Easter egg dog on the island of Tortuga, or one of those islands.
I thought it was fun, especially when you had to stop Jolly Roger from trying to burst through your defenses.
I'm pretty sure Black flag would be a better pirate game, though.

Looking for a Pirate game? Play Uncharted Waters Online. You pirate other players that could potentially lose alot of value, but they get insurance if they are careful =P

Re: Discussion: Video Games
Speaking as somebody whom thought Assassin's creed was getting better and better until Assassin's Creed 3 (where they basically went back to basics, left out the hook dagger and duel dagger systems), do you think I'd like it?The Grey Wolverine wrote:Hey guys, I got Assassin's Creed 4, and ya know what, it's a fun pirate game, like, really fun
Seriously, tree climbing angered me. We went from "These towns all have ways to travel across them better, but you can pretty much do whatever you like and it'd work!" to "these towns are too small to do any really cool, continuous parkouring. But hey, at least you have these painfully linear trees that require ridiculous amounts of trial and error to realize what you can climb and what you can't. Same applies to the small amount of mountains!".
Even worse considering they got rid of the hook claw...I mean, I know the company basically split into 2, different people worked on Assassins Creed 3 than those whom worked on Brotherhood and Revelations, but still. The hook claw was not only a cool way of executing people, but it gave a much needed slight increase to the challenge of the parkour.
Oh, and Connor acted like an idiot throughout the entire game. Ezio had growth, and that was awesome. Altair was always the standard hero guy, made cooler by his dedication to the religion(?) of assassination shown in revelations. Connor was just:
"Now I'll side with the native Americas...now I'll side with Washington...now the Native Americans again...now Washington again..."
"Hey you know our tribe was massacred by these strangers? You ever think that could happen again?"
"What are you, a communist?"
Jokes aside, I just think Connor's character was written poorly...either that, or we were just supposed to believe he was gullible, and had no sense of morality.
That, and I personally despised the sea combat. I'm not gonna say it was bad, I don't really know...but it just felt slow, and dull compared the other elements of gameplay. Don't get me wrong Revelations made this mistake too, but the tower defense mini-games didn't last too long. I suppose maybe you were supposed to get a sense of spectacle from sailing your own ship and blowing others out of the water... I didn't get that at all. I just got bored.
So yeah, do you think I'd like Assassin's Creed 4?

Even though I disagree with Wolverine a lot, I value his opinions on things. Feel free and try to sell the game to me yourself if you like, or just tell me what you thought on the mechanics of Assassins Creed 3.

Re: Discussion: Video Games
I haven't even played assassin's creed.
I thought you were asking a rhetorical question.
I watched my friend play one of them, but all I saw was parkour.
The fighting was only with bare fists, so that got boring.
All in all, I don't think I'm that into assassin's creed.
The only reason I would have played was because of the revolutionary war setting.
I watched Tobygames play AC3, and the graphics are poor.
Reading your review just tells me it'll be a waste of time.

Re: Discussion: Video Games
I do, the towns let you climb everywhere, and in the jungles there is still tree running, but also towns you can run around and jump, and the swashbuckling elements are actually a ton of fun, it feels good, and Edward is fun, he kind of stumbles into being an assassin and honestly the hook claw isn't there at all, but you still run around and slide everywhere, plus with Edward not being an assassin at the beginning, he is a privateer who makes his way to there by accident, and as such he is limited by his assassin gear, using pirate abilities, parkour is doable n towns, and well made pirate tactics for fights, and there is a ton of ways to move around.

Is there a script translation anywhere online? That's what I did when I played Fire Emblem: Fuuin no Tsurugi.
Also, I would not be able to play an RPG without being able to understand the dialogue. The story is part of the fun!

Re: Discussion: Video Games
Are there fans of racing games here? That's my main and favorite games genre, liking more the arcade ones with free roaming driving, but I don't reject the races on closed circuits. I prefer to avoid the real simultators, they require time and dedication, which I haven't. I'm neither fan of bikes riding games, except for the older motocross racing ones.
Are there also football (soccer) games players here? I used to play them more in past, but I've kinda lost interest in them, now.

Its not even that is interrupts the past story, its that the stories in the past are actually interesting, unlike the present day story which was kind of poorly done since it comes up like 7 times, its really under developed and boooooooooooooring
We do disagree a lot on games, I don't know why I talk to you as much as I do about them, not because I don't lie discussion, but I really don't play as many videogames, I play a lot more tabletop RPGs like Shadowrun, Dark Heresy, Rogue Trader, and most disappointingly enough, Pathfinder, and a lot of miniature wargaming, mostly Warhammer 4000044R0NM10 wrote:Even though I disagree with Wolverine a lot, I value his opinions on things.

64 is obviously one of the best rail shooters ever. Didn't care for Assault or Command, though. I think of Adventures as a different entity entirely from the rest of the series. It was a good game, probably one of the last Rare ever made.MrNeonShot wrote:Starfox, anyone?
I really wish the series would stop being dormant. There was still so much potential, and just think of what a 64-style game would look like in HD...

Exactly.
My idea for the for a Starfox Game is to bring back the characters from Starfox 2 SNES, Fey and Miyu.
Fey could operate the Great Fox, Fox can remain in the Sky, and Miyu could work as a ground agent.
