Assassin's Creed Origins

I'll see how I feel after playing through Unity (just started). Early impressions of Unity are that it's pretty enjoyable, so that's making this more likely a buy, but I want to see if I feel the same way after 20 or 30 hours.
Is that the one in London? I really enjoyed that one. Probably my favourite after Black Flag.
No, it's the one in France. There's another one that I have on the console that must have been a GWG or something because I don't recognize it and I don't remember it other than noticing it was there.
Ah that one. It was ok. I don't think I finished it. Thanks for the reminder! If you like the series the one in London is very good as I was saying. I picked it for 10 bucks during one of the flash sales on Xbox live.
Unity is prettier than Syndicate, but the movement in Syndicate is awesome!!!
I can't wait for this game, but watching that video made me feel uncomfortabl. The Ubisoft Montreal offices make me want to wash my body with alcohol.
They have definately chnged some things. We no longer have a minimap and now have Skyrim like compass which makes it seem less like a like a checklist and more about exploaration.
The combat is now more akin to an action game with LB or LT doing your shield and RB & RT for light & heavy attacks, but from what I have seen the combat looks way too simple. Not sur if you can unlock combos and moves.
The world seems more Far Cry-esque with factions fighting and wild life attacking.
It also has a gladitor arena.Hopefully that means a coop horde mode.

I glanced at the store last night and saw like several different things - three different Chronicles games (which, apparently, I own the China one, must have been a GWG) and Syndicate. I guess I'll need to at minimum pick up Syndicate at some point. And find room for another TV and console so I can send the six year old to that to watch Surprise Eggs and other youtube stuff so's I can properly game on the weekends, at least.

Not really sure on what all this "dynamic" stuff is, but I thought MS was marketing their new console as a true 4K gaming console.

Yeah I thought it was "4K no compromises" and that the Pro is only a competitor for the One S not the One X because it's not a true 4K machine, at least those are things Spencer always says. Stupid things to say but he's said them, never mind that the Pro is closer in power to the One X than it is the One S.
Don't get defensive people I know there is no mandate that games be native 4K and that's a good thing because 6TF's and native 4K won't always go hand in hand. No matter how often the resolution on AC Origins dips below native 4K it'll still be the highest res console version so you'll always have that
Nice write up here on the game, it sounds like it'll be a lot of fun.

They all say silly things that get contradicted. Sony's "for the gamer" tagline was silly too. Especially when you prevent things like EA Access and cross platform play.Yeah I thought it was "4K no compromises" and that the Pro is only a competitor for the One S not the One X because it's not a true 4K machine, at least those are things Spencer always says.

It is all par for the course marketing.
I get why they don't want to allow cross platform play even though that "oh the children" BS doesn't fly, I don't agree with it but I get why they don't want to do it. You are right though at the end of the day they all have some BS taglines, it's just sad when people believe them to be 100% true.
They may cave and do it but I'm pretty sure they just want people to buy their product and with their large lead they probably figure if you want to play with your friends you'll join them on PS4, they probably feel it will disincentivize people who may be willing to buy into their ecosystem from another console. I wouldn't handle it that way but I'm pretty sure that's what they are thinking.
Well that would make them pretty damn stupid if that was the case. We are talking about one game. That is hardly going to disincentivize people who wan't to game with friends.
Not bad, hitting native 4k sometimes with high settings while still in development with stable frame rate.
How many pro games are this visually demanding hitting these numbers?
Oh I know but if you do it for one you'll eventually have to do it for all, maybe they feel it's a slippery slope kind of thing. I've never tried minecraft but I know it's a monster hit, it's just not my type of game so it's not a big deal to me personally either way.
So not native 4K at all, checker boarded and then dynamic resolution on top of it. Still looks great though!
The engine is designed for 900p and it was on MS info page that some games will be allowed to use checker board.
Spencer has always been clear developers aren't forced to bee native 4k but plenty will be
Yeah I know, already talked about this a few posts before the reply to yours. Just funny that the beginning of the trailer says "captured in 4K" they are using the term as loosely as Sony was at first. Having it be the first actual gameplay of their "4K no compromises" event and it's not only using checker boarding but dynamic res on top of it just seems a little funny. Especially with his comments about the Pro not being competition because it's not a true 4K machine.
I totally expected when it was announced that not all games would be native, 6TF's is powerful for a console but it's not enough power to get native 4K on all modern games. Funny enough so many Xbox fans are talking up Ark because they are doubling the framerate on that one game yet ignoring the fact that it's still staying at 1080p, it's not getting a resolution boost at all. This is undoubtedly the most powerful console but it does have it's limits.
