Yeah, the game has around 15k concurrent players on steam as of now.
Definitely not a strong start. For context, it has the same concurrent players of The Elder Scrolls Online, a 10+ Years old live service

Indiana Jones and the great circle lets you kill fascists and nazis iirc, it’s a good game and a good Indiana Jones story.
- Comment on Steam has the best UI 5 weeks ago:
Yeah, dark patterns are NOT good UX, even though unfortunately it’s present everywhere nowdays.
Steam’s UI/UX can be better, more ordered, coherent and standardized. This does not mean that it has to incorporate dark patterns.

- Comment on Assassin's Creed Shadows delayed again to March 20 1 month ago:
When a game gets delayed it’s not a good sign in general. It means “the game is broken and we can’t release as it is”.
Of course a delayed game will be better than a game that needed to be delayed and released anyways instead, but realistically speaking you can’t fix a broken AAA sized game in one or two months.
Add this to the fact that Ubisoft (rightfully so) earned a bad reputation among players as time went on and that devs can’t work at their best when they are crunching and they fear to be laid off, and you’ll understand why non-casual gamers don’t have faith in the game.

- Comment on Let's discuss: Assassin's Creed 1 month ago:
I’ve stared from Black flag up until Odyssey, then I went back the Ezio Trilogy.
At firt the Ezio games seemed janky and unpolished, but boy was I wrong. The percieved “jankiness” was due to the fact that you have actual control over the character, which can be difficult at first but extremely rewarding later in the game(s), with tombs and catacombs that feel like actual puzzles to traverse, nothing like the "parkour on rails of ACIV. Unity’s parkour really felt like a step in the right direction, but players complained about it being a broken and rushed game and somehow Ubi understood that they needed to turn AC into The Witcher.
As for the present time story arc I think they really nailed it with Desmond. I love games that take real world history as a base and add fictional twists to it, and the sense of uncovering an actual, worldwide conspiracy and the origins of humankind itself was there.
I understand that they’ve acknowledged the fact that people don’t play AC for the present time story arc, but there was no reason to let it die in irrelevance from ACIII onwards. Layla’s arc might be a slight step towards the right direction, but we’re still far, far away.
This is all to say that yes, I agree with you. This series had (and still has) so much potential, but it was unfortunately hijacked by corporate greed time and time again, straying further from the original concept as time goes on.
I’m currently playing valhalla and plan on tackling ACIII next, and then Mirage.

- Comment on What are your most recent games played? 2 months ago:
Balatro, Octopath traveller 2, AC Valhalla, Baldur’s gate 3, Crosscode, Tales of grindea, AC Odyssey.
I’ve only completed the last two, and I’m currently rotating through the others depending on what I feel like playing the most.
- Comment on What are your favorite "gotta go in blind" games? 2 months ago:
I’ve played BG3 mostly on geforce now, it’s a nice workaround if your pc is not capable enough. If you buy it on steam you’ll have synced saves for when you get your pc back.
They are still updating the game and it has official mod support (not on geforce now though).
It’s also discounted 20% on steam right now
- Comment on What are your favorite "gotta go in blind" games? 2 months ago:
Definitely fear and hunger (the first one)
Also, baldur’s gate 3 has an uncountable number of “no fucking way the devs did this” that make a blind run of the game a memorable experience

The mario movie was also good in my opinion. I enjoyed it and it did not feel like a cringefest at all (which I wish I could say about Minecraft’s trailer)

It is in fact a teaser trailer, it’s meant to be vague and it’s more of a “visual announcement” than a trailer

Because you need people to build a community, and like it or not, most people are on discord

Last but not least, yes, we are in development on the next chapter – The Elder Scrolls VI. Even now, returning to Tamriel and playing early builds has us filled with the same joy, excitement, and promises of adventure.
So still no updates on TES6 then. Saved you a click I guess

Very fun game, I’ve been into it for a while and really enjoyed watching gameplay. Unfortunately i grew tired of it before the sales, and I ended up not buying it
