After hating Ubisoft for months because of all of this, I see people fawning over the new Assassins creed that was just announced, as if that isn't going to be the exact same, overpriced, boring sorry, empty world game. This one will be different!

I will probably get it - in 2 years when it's priced at 10 dollars, and I'll know they will take it away from me. I will basically rent it for 10 dollars. How anyone is gleeful about paying full price for an Ubisoft game is beyond me.

It takes place in 17th century Japan? I might actually buy a used copy if it doesn't have any fantasy elements whatsoever, and if the open world aspect isn't just a time sink like it is in most modern games
