Yeah, tell the man who spends thousands on his gaming rig how exciting the prospect of saving 30 bucks will be.

From the trailer it will be as action and stealth heavy as always. I mean look at the enemies, they're completely blind and deaf, you'll be in stealth if you want to or not^^

As for exploration it's gonna be interesting to see. They were gonna go for a compass instead of mini map which might mean the map itself will be a bit less overwhelming with little collectible dots and will require a lot more exploring by yourself..

But those 30 bucks you'll safe from the base game can be spend purchasing the mandatory DLCs the game will have. You'll spend the same money but you'll get more content. It's a perfect situation.

Yesterday I spent 30€ on Pizza for myself. The day before I spent even more than that on Sushi for myself.

You're a spender. I'm not.

I can't really help it. When I look at my bank account all I'm seeing is rising numbers. What else I'm supposed to do with my money other than improve my quality of life?

I'm a victim of capitalism.

It's strange. I don't know why, but I don't feel sorry for you.

But you should. While I make good money I still don't get enough to just buy everything indiscriminately. Which means I have to live in semi-luxury hell.

Yes I can afford 30€ of Sushi every few weeks but I still can't afford it every week, let alone every day. I wouldn't have that problem if I was poor.

Ah, but that's your problem, that you only want the best/more expensive stuff. You could eat Suchi every day if you wanted by simply getting something cheaper.

But hey! I don't like Suchi (raw fish... yuck!), and most weeks I don't spend more than 50€ in food, so I'm not the right man to comfort you.

What if I told you that I already order the cheapest Sushi I can get? The only thing less expensive would be premade Sushi you find in supermarkets but that doesn't even compare. I'm terrified for my trip to Japan and have my first taste of real sushi. I may have to spend even more then.

People say it's nice to be rich but they forget how easily people get used to things. If you get used to expensive stuff you have to always have expensive stuff afterwards. Which means you will spend more money but your satisfaction level won't be any higher than what a poor person experiences when buying something cheap.

I envy people who can only afford consoles. They don't have to suffer through low framerates because they don't know anything better.

The human being adapts very easily to all kind of situations. It's not that you get used to expensive stuff and can't go back to the cheaper options, it's that you don't want to.

And consoles are no longer what they used to be. PS4 and that still unreleased failure called XBX show that things are changing for them too, and not in a good way. But who cares about them? If they were smart, they would pick a PC and play with the settings to find the best trade-off for their needs.

 I've stopped being excited about AC after II (just didn't feel right for me after 1st), played a bit of Black Flag and didn't like it much, but given that this one is set in Egypt I might finally pick AC again.

It's a nice setting that is not too much explored. AC3, 4, Unity and Syndicate were basically the same game. This is something fresh and it seems they changed the progression system again. The RPG elements in AC were rarely ever that rewarding. I'm gonna like this because it's in the desert, it's in Egypt and everyone is using freaking bows and arrows :)

Worst case scenario is that ACO will contest with FC5 because I had to push it back so far due to Elex.

Well, they lost me after ACII (I tried Black Flag only cause of the theme), it was piss poor easy, you almost didn't have to be stealthy at all. Judging by ACO trailer, I'm not too optimistic, that guard was completely blind, but setting is too tempting for me to skip it.

Ignoring consoles is not an options when they're the main reason why PC owners have to suffer. Exclusivity of games and lazy devs have to be called out constantly.

PC players depend on what's going on in the console industry so we should be vocal. Actually the mid gen upgrades were a great step in the right direction but it seems they went the wrong way with it.
