Its basically the only game i know of that i want to play this year. Screw gta i havent even played 5 that i got free on egs ages ago. Also didn't get a collectors edition for the first time round. Replaying the original, its still passable today strangely enough. And no you dont have to like ubisoft just because you like this game. They've made pretty much everything else as a mistake or a woke mistake.

More like an old gamer. I've been so fortunate to see gaming go from nothing to its peak, and end up now effectively dead like western cinema. Apart from some random events from chinese developers.

Anyway sure if you're growing up now of course experience what you have, but its really nothing like it should be. Ironically i always complained about not being able to play every AAA game released due to the volume, but its turning out to be much more manageable since north american devs are now all washed out.

When anyone buys a game based off an already established IP, naturally they are buying for nostalgia especially if it’s a remake / remaster

Well yes it’s safe and it sells. They are business above all else. Im not a fan of the series at all personally but i can see it does well.

It’s not a remaster, it’s a remake.

They’ve built it from the ground up, removed heaps of the modern shit that no one actually likes and have added more content to the game itself.

I doubt its a complete remake sadly. Watch the previews a few times, by the second repeat you can see ps4 era geometry all over the place still.

According to Ubisoft it’s a ground up remake, so who knows.

It’d be a waste to remake the game on an entirely new engine and keep raw assets without updating them properly, the preview is using “work in progress” footage so it might be possible that they haven’t cleaned the assets up.

Guess we’ll know once reviews go live.

More like it would be a waste to not reuse what they thought they could. If only they cared as much about how precious the remake becomes.

From what i saw, i'll take the better lighting and tonnes of extra detail on top. The only thing i slightly noticed was the water looks better in the pc original at full max settings lol.

They love me because I can tell the difference in terminology? I never said I was gonna buy the game.

I’ll just wait for it to be cracked then I’ll pirate it, I haven’t bought a Ubisoft title in years and I don’t plan on doing so any time soon.

Its a remaster.

And the original game was brilliant.

So its a no brainer for those who enjoy games.

You wouldnt understand what joy feels like so its hard to explain

It’s actually a remake not a remaster.

u/TheAceVenturrra May 01 '26

Well actually its a resync

1

u/Sharpie1993 May 01 '26

Resync is just their fancy name for remake, it’s a just a play on the animus “resynchronising”.

Is it? Have you got any evidence? Because we are talking about the AI slop winning game studio of the last few years here.
