  People need to stop buying them. Be patient. Get them on sale or sail the seas.

    Got assassin’s creed mirage. Was a decent game. For the $20 sale price I mean. Wouldn’t spend more than that

  Well somebody better tell Ubisoft to delay Assassin’s Creed Shadow till 2026 then.

    Then the news title will change to 2026 as well.

    Nah, they’ll just make it a AAAA level game

  I can already see one AAA failure coming.

    Is it Assassin’s Creed: Shadows? Because a failure by Assassin’s Creed standards is still pretty damn successful.

      It is AC:Shadows.

  What nonsense. AAA games are not going away there just may be fewer of them.

    Not fewer, shittier.

    They will just crank the monetization up and the quality down.
