The Assassin's Creed devs clearly aren't the best devs around. Hell, they announced that they will be releasing the Wii U version incomplete and they aren't even trying to make any improvements.

@bold. What makes you say that? One of the best games I've ever played.


The infomration that comes right after it.

The information that you didn't provide. So you mean only those assigned to the port. You generalized.

I completely 100% agree. A generally harder version of the game above the normal/standard mode forces you to take your time and think more, create tactics in the level/situation that you're in.

Easy mode, IMO, you don't take the time to take in the entire scenario, or give credit to the amount of time that it took the developers to generate the level concept, so you run right through it and its just a not fulfilled/ruined experience.



All of this, of course, is just my opinion.

Skyrim 100%'d. Dark Souls 100%'d. 
Dark Souls > Skyrim.
Halo 4 is the best damn FPS since Halo 3.
Proud pre-orderer of 2 PS4's and an Xbox One. 

Currently Playing: Dark Souls II, South Park
Playstation 4: MGS V GZ, Killzone: Shadow Fall, NBA 2k14.

He can't really afford to say that when the whole AC series (except for the first game) has been easy mode from the beginning to the end.

It's fair to blame them for faulty ports, just as its fair to blame, say, BioWare...



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

It doesn't change the fact that he generalized, and that the statement falls short in any other context, since Ubisoft Montreal is one of the greatest studios in existence, they have made some of the more excellent games of this generation and the last.

So again, he generalized and I disagree with his post. I'm saying it from my perspective.

Also, there's a difference between being lazy, and not being motivated. They are not motivated to port to the WiiU, that does not make them lazy.
