Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Honestly I don't think the addicted Assassins Creed and Far Cry players care. Too addicted to the endless gameplay loop.
My big problem with quitting assassin's creed is that it's the best representation of what these places looked like hundreds of years ago. I know it's not 100% accurate, but the fact that my wife could guide me around Rome in game because she'd lived there is one of my favorite gaming experiences. Replaying an AC game and reading all of the research has made vacations to places where they're set amazing.
That said, I'm never buying a subscription to games. The second I can't buy the game and have it, I'll stop taking their abuse.
