    That’s enough for me to never buy any of their games ever again.

    Remember when they said that if we pay for the product, we dont get ads? :)

        This is such transparent bulshit excuse. Who wants their playtime to be more grind? But it’s probably why Assassins’ Creed even adopted XP systems at all.

        If anything I want to go back to the days games had baked in cheats to become invincible and unlock everything so we can fuck around when we feel like it.

            I like the franchise because I’m into history. I was really looking forward to Mirage after the grindfests that were Origins, Odyssey and Valhalla, but news like this make me consider not even waiting until Mirage is 50% off at some point.

        You don’t need to say “artificially” here because the whole game is made by humans.

        Deliberately or maliciously is more like it.

      Sometimes you don’t even get the product if you pay for the product. AC: Odyssey will be in my Steam library forever unplayable because I had to delete my Ubisoft account for being hacked into and their support team absolutely refused to let me associate the game I purchased and thought I owned to a new Ubisoft account.

      Fuck those guys. I will never pay money for their games ever again.
