It isn’t. In this case it’s actively converting sales since so many people in the scene are recommending you buy the game if you enjoy it because remedy is a pro-consumer developer that makes great games.

Yes, a name brand of adhesive bandage, just like Kleenex or Velcro or Xerox.


Yeah but the US did it at a scale an order of magnitude greater. We have more prisoners than most of the world combined.


Excellent contribution and a shining example of lemmy discourse.


I bet you still get upset about gamergate.


They’re still only tangentially related to the game’s primary revenge narrative. Naoe and Yasuke have complete arcs in the base game. I don’t disagree that it’s a bullshit business tactic and that shadows is probably the worst ac in that regard, but it does have multiple endings more or less on par with Odyssey or Valhalla in terms of wrapping up loose threads. It’s assassin’s creed, they all leave dozens of loose threads.


Games were an order of magnitude smaller scale then. If you don’t like sprawling open world narratives with hundreds of hours of quality content and gameplay, don’t fuckin play em. Ubisoft and AC deserve shit for their hostile implementation of mtx and always online dumbfuckery. The games themselves are well made and well written. Have legitimate criticism instead of bullshit bandwagoning. The game was complete without the dlc. It was extra story, not main story. Eat my whole asshole. I already said that all games with planned post launch dlc pull this shit because they do, ac isn’t fuckin special or worse, arguably they’re better because the games are still quality in spite of the corporate fuckery.


There’s macguffins left and right. The dlc in shadows is mostly around one characters past relationship that was tangential but not directly relative to any of the narrative elements in the base game.


It’s also the same format all the modern AC games have had. And the endings in the base game are fine, open-ended but more or less complete. All the dlc did was bring more context to a side character that wasn’t really relevant to the main story.


In fairness so do most games that launch with planned dlc. And you do get endings for each character that wrap up most plot points in the base game. All the “new” assassin’s creed games have done this, you get two or three endings in the base game and the dlcs will wrap up a few remaining threads not covered in the base. Base game endings are left a little open because it’s an ongoing game series but they absolutely wrap up the main plot, it’s a bit misleading to say the ending is locked behind dlc when it’s really just one ancillary plot thread that gets explored and resolved.


For literally one thing only. That was the point of my comment. Unfortunately AI can’t give you reading comprehension.


And this is why the world things us US Americans are belligerent and cruel by nature.


It’s a tool like a gun, specifically purpose built to usher in a technofeudalist surveillance state. Not useful for anything else as is.


Cushy institutionalization? You’ve got some wild misunderstandings of how any of this works. It’s prison, with prison conditions. Nothing fucking cushy about it, but I’m guessing you’re far more interested in punishment than rehabilitation.


You encourage people not to vote because you genuinely believe democrats and republicans are the same. This gets republicans elected, therefore you work to get republicans elected. You refuse to acknowledge the fundamental reality that third parties are wholly nonviable as a means of political change in the US. You refuse to acknowledge the currently successful strategy of primarying democrats with progressives and preventing republicans from winning in the general by any means necessary which in very nearly every instance explicitly means voting for the democrat. And you never actually directly address criticisms you don’t have a questionably sourced talking point for, hence the commonly held opinion you use ai for your comments. You’re not a serious person.
I mean, is that not more or less how house spiders evolved?

The majority of the fediverse knows exactly what you are cow.
People are just recommending you buy the game if you end up enjoying it, to support Remedy since they’re an independent developer that makes consistently excellent games.
