I don't know why but "come with" as an idiomatic expression is super annoying to me.

Anyway yeah whether he is trying to suck up or not, those statements are so vague that he may as well have said nothing.

May also be pre-hyping a cool new Rayman though.

1 was decent but was bogged down by repetitive level design
All of the ones in the 2 trilogy were good, though the formula started getting stale by the third one
The third one was marred heavily by a lead character made of cardboard, and a plot that has nothing interesting happen until 3/4s or more of the way in.
The fourth one (pirate) was... okay, but it felt like they wanted to make a full fledged pirate sim but had to make an AC game instead, so it was a bit gimped on its best aspect (the pirate sim)

I stopped paying attention after that. Unity had massive technical problems, and then I think the next one fixed those but was just more of the same?

Pirate's Creed was fun, but I get annoyed when I remember that one time I tried assassinating a target by unloading a round of cannon fire at him point blank and not even scratching him.

The ones with Ezio are the ones that are the better ones in the series for a few reasons

One, Ezio is a much more well developed character, probably because you play as him for four games in a row. Two, the games werent just strings of tailing missions with the occasional assassination, and three, you were allowed to kill civilians in them. Sure the game got buttmad if you did, but hell if it wasnt fun to run around and throw bombs at people, or shove them into a well! I guess in these new games you can..point a gun at someone and shoot em, but thats not as fun at all.

I think Ravio would rent Red Hare to you for a princely sum.... if you are felled in battle, then the legendary steed will run right back to its owner Guan Yu who is in a different game. This is for Hard Core players only, no softlings allowed.

What's been said about Nintendo and VR? Anyone else think the company will stay away?

I could see many more augmented reality experiments but full, isolated immersion seems against their current philosophy of "we feel bad for contributing to bad gamer health."
