Just bought the game after deciding on whether to buy it or not.

So, I bought it at full price and thought what a waste of money because I could've bought Baldur's Gate 3 or Dragon's Dogma 2 or even both of them at the sale price.

Combat isn't that much as it mostly the same with any other games. The enemies have some sort of hyper armor but there's no combos or anything.

The leap of faith is OK as its mostly the same but the difference is, the characters feel the sting on landing on a pile of hay like they are some 40 year old cargo workers in the docks lifting 5 stacks of barrels at a time.

Haven't explored it that much but will update soon.

If you won't like it, the Ubisoft will sue you.
I couldn't help but laugh when I saw an article saying Ubisoft would sue anyone for "harassment" during and after the launch. So, how many youtubers will get court summons in the coming weeks when they say some not nice meany-weany things about the game?

It's just such a pathetic move for Ubisoft. What morons were allowed to even come to that legal decision and think it would go down well?

She better.

Imagine the money it costs to have the legal team on standby.

Those lawyers aren't cheap.
Yep. Poor Japan has been experienceing a crisis for the past decade or so, and now Ubi will sue them for critisi- for hating AC Shadows. They won't be able to recover from this.

I wish Japan would do to Ubisoft what Egypt did to Netflix.

Hell, did anything ever come of that extremely amusing court case or is it still pending?

All I saw is that Netflix could bleed 2 Billions dollars, but then nothing about the case conclusion. Last article I read was November of 2024.

By the way, do you prefer boys-kissing or girls-kissing?


Netflix's Cleopatra is banned in Egypt, as far I know?
Last I read, it was claimed that Netflix could lose 2$ Billion dollars over it, but I never read a conclusion as to whether it happened or not.

I found it. Netflix lost.

I thought it was banned, and it was the end of it? But maybe it's not.

Don't waste your money on Dragon's Dogma 2 either. Massively disappointing game. BG3 is great though.

Last I remember, they didn’t fully resolve the issues with the game right? Because of RE engine?

It did run terribly if that's what you mean, don't know if they've fixed it now I haven't played it for a long time. Game had deeper problems than the performance issues for me. Boring world, bad quests, and a combat system that is really fun but gets muddied by repeated fights of low level enemies that dog your heels at every damn turn. IMO the only thing it has over the original game is the graphics. But even then, I kinda like older shitty looking games. They've got a certain charm to them.

Ah yeah, I remember that was what people complained about as well. Safe to say, probably shouldn’t play it.
