yoooooo damn

Ubisoft knew.

 

[codhand]

"Hardcore Gamer" gave Assassin's Creed 3 a 5/5.

same reviewer though?

 

[Death Metalist]

Mediocrity. Mediocrity everywhere.

This feels a right kick in the nuts of Ubisoft and they fucking deserve it.

When did a "good" turn into mediocre? lol.

 

[orthodoxy1095]

Digital Spy: 4/5

HAHAHA. WHAT.

 

[Coffee Dog]

I played the game, 99% of the people gleefully shiting on it did not. Did I notice what you are mentioning? Of course I did. But I think considering how ambitious this title is, and how utterly amazing Paris look, I actually can forgive them for the most part (I can't forgive the loadings and the few game breaking bugs I encountered though).

What did you think was ambitious about it? It just looks like more asscreed.

Mediocrity. Mediocrity everywhere.

A 7/10 is mediocre? Lol.

 

[EightBitNate]

Sheesh. Hope Ubi gets a wake-up call.

 

[Devilgunman]

This is the best they could do, guys. 10 studio and all.

IGN 7.8

Assassin’s Creed Unity leverages the new-generation consoles to add spectacular new sights and successful co-op multiplayer, but in doing so, it’s created some substantial new problems instead of solving the series’ most persistent ones.

[Amused]

Not buying it anyway because of parity-bullshit, so this makes me happy.

Xbone bundle looking slightly less amazing.

Bundle still very good though.

 

[ramuh]

That Kotaku. Article. Wow! Dull dull dull.

 

[KojiKnight]

But where are the Rogue reviews? There is still hope to salvage this shit storm with a full priced expansion to Black Flag!

 

[Kuldar]

Looks like somme people will not have their metacritic bonus.

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

Haha, holy shit. Well I'm still going to give it a go.

But where are the Rogue reviews? There is still hope to salvage this shit storm with a full priced expansion to Black Flag!

They apparently didn't even send out review copies.

 

[TI82]

2.5/5 ungh

 

[GnawtyDog]

 

[antitrop]

It's actually sad to see gamers want a game to be bad. I don't even know if I have the mental aptitude required to make the leap into this dark side of gaming.

Disappointed in many gamers here.

Hating on video games is a much more harmless form of entertainment than say... Gladiatorial combat.

 

[Twookie]

Yikes, good thing I didn't buy into the hype like I usually do. This AC was looking very interesting too Maybe i'll buy it if they fix the horrible FPS and bugs...

 

[Karu]

We have a game for people who don't want to buy this technical POS, it's called Rogue. Hehehe. :-/

 

[vgamer1]

So, all of these critics whining and making a fuss on twitter about embargoes, all for a bunch of 7's?

Goddamn Ubisoft for not allowing us to tell everyone that the new game is alright!!

7s are equal to I SHOULD NOT PLAY THIS because that's the lowest that most major reviewers go.

lol

 

[DoubleTake]

Sigh...why the Damn 7-10 review scale....Saving my F's reviewers.

I take it back here ya go Joystic, F

 

[braves01]

Damn

Unity is getting desynchronized

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I wonder how Rogue will do.

 

[Zomba13]

Kotaku: NO

http://kotaku.com/assassins-creed-unity-the-kotaku-review-1657368877

So that's what? a 7.1 in the number scale?

 

[Data West]

makes the ubisoft insider e-mail to the bombcast about it 'being fun so who cares' all the funnier

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

yeah...those are really terrible scores...a real bomba game.

sigh

gaf blowing everything out of portion

It's really almost exactly like AC 1 on the review scale.

 

[Karak]

But where are the Rogue reviews? There is still hope to salvage this shit storm with a full priced expansion to Black Flag!

I reviewed it and it is hands down the better game.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Wow Kotaku.

 

[Kacho]

Ah yes, the classic 7~10 review scale.

The games budget is too large to score below a 7.

Our lord and saviour has arrived.

 

[SSReborn]

As an aside when is the Rogue reviews supposed to go live.

 

[FordGTGuy]

Probably doesn't matter to most... but I'm really enjoying the game so far... so there's that.

 

[The Shogun]

Most of the reviews sound like the actual game is pretty decent / good but that the technical issues really bring it down.

 

[Violence Jack]

GamesRadar - 4/5

 

[Aeternus Malum]

PlayStation Lifestyle gave this game a 10/10

http://www.playstationlifestyle.net/2014/11/11/assassins-creed-unity-review-ps4/#/slide/1

 

[jmdajr]

Will they fix the game after getting everyone's money?

 

[McHuj]

Seems like a game rushed for the holidays that instead needed another 6 months of polish and refinement.

 

[DorkyMohr]

Alex and Patrick are talking about Unity on the morning show right now. They're giving some perspective on the embargo and how it's messy.

Can we please, for all that is holy, stop giving this site clicks, links, or even the smallest bit of reference? Their editorial and writing standards are embarrassing.

 

[Tamanon]

But where are the Rogue reviews? There is still hope to salvage this shit storm with a full priced expansion to Black Flag!

I don't believe Rogue was sent to reviewers.

 

[Barrett2]

the notion of a professional review stating "this entertainment software is a technical mess, but fun... 8/10" is so embarrassing.

I suppose it says more about the culture of the enthusiast press & their readers but lol

 

[blankempathy]

I've been saying this for months that this game was going to be a rushed out product to meet a deadline to make money for the holiday season and now theres proof. Typical Ubisoft.

 

[breakfuss]

Isn't this the longest a review embargo has gone for an Ass Creed entry?

 

[shadewolf]

GameInformer 8/10

[Raw64life]

And they delayed this game by 2 weeks. They should've delayed it a year.

Only ever played AC 2 and Brotherhood. Looks like I'm not going to be playing another AC game for a while.

 

[Pooya]

I still want to play it D: well visuals are still lookin good.

Framerate is actually worse on PS4 per Eurogamer, wtf happened with this game. AC3 mess again but even worse

 

[MHWilliams]

Our review over at USgamer gave it a 3.5/5. Seems high compared to some other reviews.

I still love the game, but it's definitely a rebuilding year for the franchise.

you have to listen to my annoying voice, but we also have a video review live.
