So you say AC gets a new engine, new story, and new characters, 200 hours of content.So do Sports games. New physics in gameplay, New GM mode (Story mode), new rosters (New characters), and within the MUT or My Career mode I can easily put 200 hours in that.
lets be real, no game would ever release that much content for free.

I'm not avoiding anything. I just don't care enough to respond, I've had these conversations before.
You think $65 for a sports game isn't worth it, thats cool. However, thats subjective and by the looks of XBL numbers, MANY people disagree with you.
Sports games are consistently some of the top played games every year.
So, because it's players and teams instead of guns and maps it's not worth it?
And like I said, you go play the Fifa games from the early 2000s to now, there is far more evolution than there has been in the FPS genre for one.
You are judging yearly instalments vs tri-yearly instalments. So how about thinking Fifa 12-Fifa 15, or 07 to 10-because to say they are reskins is just ignorance
Quote from: Sprungli on December 10, 2014, 11:27:26 AMSo, because it's players and teams instead of guns and maps it's not worth it? When you're paying full price for a game that's nothing more than a skin pack every year then it's not worth it. You're paying full price for something that would either be free or coast around 1 for a DLC in some game. QuoteAnd like I said, you go play the Fifa games from the early 2000s to now, there is far more evolution than there has been in the FPS genre for one.So besides the engine being updated which every game does and there being goalkeeping that's more like goal keeping. What evolution is there that would have more changes to it than what the FPS genre had? QuoteYou are judging yearly instalments vs tri-yearly instalments. So how about thinking Fifa 12-Fifa 15, or 07 to 10-because to say they are reskins is just ignoranceSo then what have these games done to prevent them from being reskins? Does one game have spin off game modes like a Tron styled thing? Does one game have cars being used to move the bar around? What changes are there that prevents these games from being simple reskins besides engine updates? Unless you make up gamemodes or a spin off version there's only so much you can do.
It's more supporting TellTale, honestly I don't understand why their "games" are so popular.
And I refuse to support AC, it's been butchered and their open chance to innovate and dominate in the genre has been squandered
hopefully the sequel to SoM will totally demolish the franchise

Wolfenstein has a great story, and is a great game, there should be more actual games like it out there rather than a load of £20 pseudo-games flooding the market time and time again
