Somehow the idea of an Assassin's Creed set in Ancient Greece is considerably more enticing than screenshots of it

Doesn't help that it looks exactly like Origin so we're probably back in yearly title land

I'm probably never gonna play it, but at least you can look at the screenshots and ask "oh what game is this?" instead of immediately just recognizing it as assassin's creed 7 or whatever. that's something I guess

Dang that looks colorful as hell.

Also Sony's Countdown to E3 continues in 10 minutes. Today's thing is "PS4 game getting PSVR support" so I dunno maybe it's something you're interested in.

It's funny that even fake leaks won't entertain the idea of PS1 games being playable on the PS4.

Instead of Vanquish I would pay good money for a spiritual sequel to Anarchy Reigns but instead of a multiplayer brawler its a single player beat em up with literally every Platinum character ever.

So...you mean a MadWorld sequel then? :v:

For what it's worth, you can kinda see how this one came round so soon; Origins has more than a few Greek characters and settlements, so it's not like they don't have art assets ready to go already. I do agree that venturing back into yearly title land is a bad, bad, idea though.

They still have to do Rome to finish this classical trilogy and then we get to see what the next setting/era is.

A Roman Empire game would be pretty cool. Maybe they can retcon history so you're the one who kills Caesar.

I seem to remember reading a few years ago that the AC team specifically ruled out Japan early on just because there are so many other games set there already.

Any setting they've ruled out is instantly on the table again the second they decide it's the interesting thing to do. I wouldn't worry too much about statements from years ago.

cd Projekt Red is also GoG.com, so there's not much fear of that.

I actually quite liked that they also revealed "The Father of Understanding" with that as well, and it was a good choice of a character too.

It's the Bone Era though so they don't have generation exclusivity money anymore, they only have 1-year Tomb Raider/Dead Rising 4 money.

Bioware is so so hosed.

Dragon Age 4 was in development for some time before being rebooted. The team was scaled down, job postings for Dragon Age were taken down, and several DA staff members left the company.

It's unclear why exactly it was rebooted but it was enough to make Bioware vets leave the company. I'm guessing they started making a traditional single-player RPG before rebooting it into a multiplayer service game.

CDPR had a co-marketing deal with Microsoft. I wouldn't be surprised if Cyberpunk 2077 had a similar deal.
