Joke post? Everything about Unity's story was clumsily written cliche trash.
Not at all. The story as a whole was awful, I'm just talking about Arno's character and dialogue, which was solid (best character development and dialogue in the series imo). Character and dialogue are just a subset of 'story'. Everything else about Unity's story - the plot, the themes (or lack thereof), the narrative - all of that was shit.
I should have said 'dialogue' instead of 'writing' really.
Yeah it was made fun of and it was really annoying in most missions. It was only when you got put into an entirely separate area where they did handcraft the environment for a single mission.
I also hate the full sync stuff that unlocks as you progress in a mission but loved them in tombs.
Like the aqueduct you have to finish w/o getting hurt or the church you should finish w/o touching the ground.
Yeah, the Full Sync Stuff I initially liked, because it gave more gameplay depth.
But after Brotherhood I realised it
doesn't give more gameplay depth. It would give more gameplay depth if you got more resources/abilities/equipment for getting Full Sync. But you don't. It's literally just % completion. Which is
so lame.
Except Tuesday is the standard day for the release of all store bought media in the US (movies, music, games.). Including when huge games have midnight launches (COD day zero is a recent example where they pushed the release a day earlier). Assumption being that if that's the standard release, the retail store would have gotten their shipments of the game earlier in the week along with all the other new releases.
"Except Friday is the standard day for the release of all store bought media in the UK and all of Europe (movies, games, books)." That's a subjective non-argument. In the UK, movies, games, theatre shows and books come out on Fridays. (Music comes out on Tuesday, but music doesn't abide by the same rules.)
And if it was released on Tuesday, you'd have most of the week to play. The people buying stuff at launch, at least the ones not still in grade school
, don't only play games on weekends. Regardless, once again I don't know how having the game available on Tuesday for those of us that will go out and buy it that day affects the habits of someone who doesn't have time to do this and will wait until Friday to buy it. Not sure what's so ridiculous.
... But on Tuesday most people don't have 'most of the week' to play. There's relatively little time to play until the weekend. Most people have limited time in evenings, what with being late back from jobs, spending time with their family and doing housework/meals. On Friday you immediately have the two biggest free-days of the whole week right on your doorstep.
It's a total no-brainer. It's a similar situation to the whole idiotic American date system, which was made
just to be different from the rest of the world - ie for no meaningful, sensible reason.
