SW:O was so successful at getting new Ubi+ subscribers taht Ubisoft just suicided Ubi+ by partnering with Steam for Day1 Launches. These covreage people are old. They do not take into account the tastes of people under 25. Skillup is an old man. Paul Tassi has arthritis.
Bro you are such a sellout trying to pretend that it’s not woke just handwaving all gamers concerns away. Get woke go broke. RGT is a urinalist not a gamer he IS the media
That is one of the dumbest things I ever saw in a videogame. It turned me off from playing it. They could of gave her some type of silenced weapon to take out the stormtroopers.
I mean, have you seen any Star Wars movie? There's always silly slapstick humor and all of them like han chasing down a bunch of Stormtroopers in the hallway and then him turning around and running back while they chase him. Yeah it's not great, but I swear soo many peoples basis of how bad this game is is that, and that kay doesn't look like a model
Starwars is a crappy franchise now thanks to Disney. Also Ubisoft is clueless about what games we want. I want a new Splinter Cell, Rayman, Classic Farcry, and a new WatchDogs game.
how could anyone have forseen this? there was almost no warning signs at all. all the right people were working on it. there was no gross agenda being pushed. i'm so shocked!
Star Wars Outlaws had 600 developers and took 4 years to make. That’s a minimum of $300,000 to the budget. No way this anything less than $1 Billion loss for Ubisoft. This the biggest loss of the year.
Skull and Bones cost them over 800 million. Outlaws? God knows, but I'm guessing it wasn't cheaper. Shadows could be a collosal f up. I think selling Ubisoft to Tencent and changing the way of communicating and listening to the gamers is the way to go. Ubisoft probably was expecting that this game will sell with min 10mln copies.
I would play this game, but not for anything even approaching full price. Honestly given the reputation of both Star Wars and Ubisoft at the moment I feel like Outlaws would have had an uphill battle even without the bugs and the ugly character controversy. But those were definitely the final nail in the coffin. That and the fact people just don't have the money to throw around on games right now. You want full price? Give us a full price experience. Red Dead Redemption 2 came out more than half a decade ago and there's no reason a game that old should look better in every single category.
that game was grinded out to perfection. The only thing they didnt nail was the controls. I think in modern games herizon zero dawn has the best controls in gaming, shooting, runnin, walking is so effortlessly , only climbing sucks
@@SWOTHDRA For me in regard to controls I'd have to say Ghost of Tsushima has the best of anything I've played recently. Everything just feels so smooth in that game and the combat is endlessly satisfying.
Also to note it was the same director that did this game and the Avatar game. At this point, I suspect some of these issues come directly from decisions from the Guillemaut family... unless every employee in the whole Ubisoft company is completely blind (which I doubt).
It flopped because Ubisoft is very repetitive with their games, not to mention, Kay striking and knocking out stormtroopers looked absolutely ridiculous. The story felt boring, the dialogue felt meh. I had an ok time playing it, but will most likely never pay $18 to play it again.
I just wanna know when these big companies are going to learn to not listen to those bs focus groups who say they need to create these characters or these types of characters to produce the most money possible for their wallets
Lightsabers aren't the only thing going on for Star wars. Just look at Rogue one, and solo, and Andor all of those are great and show that you don't need the Jedi to make Star Wars engaging
The problem is that we all saw that it looked half-assed and they wanted $70 for the base version or $100 for the "play early bonus Jabba the Hutt mission" - they misjudged the audience. Ubisoft doesn't have the good will they had 10 years ago. We're not buying their broken games at launch for them to go on sale for $39.99 after a couple of months and patches that fix the game. If they want to charge a premium price, they can give us a premium game. Otherwise sell it at $50 like all the other half-assed AA games that come out.
She's not. Those clothes are part of the Pre order DLC. There is also Lando Gear, and other pieces you can get during the game. If anything, the preorder gear is bad. Not because of the design, but because it is purely cosmetic. Other pieces of gear give you bonuses in the game. This one doesn't.
Even if you make the main character Han Solo it would suck because Ubisoft can't make a good game since Far Cry 3... since then it's all copy paste open world slop
And also remember. When any industry has low revenue they will always point to the industry dying, to customers being the problem, to the times that we are in. They will NEVER look at themselves and say, hey maybe if we actually make GOOD PRODUCTS we wont be in "bad times" or in a "dying industry" its all bullshit tactics to shift the blame.
The game is on Ubisoft plus, why would anyone spend $70 when you can rent it a month for $17? Companies make subscription services and then are upset their games don't sell 😂
Or likewise, cancel a show after 1 season because "nobody watched it". The subscription service model doesn't work in this way, because we can watch shows or play games when we want now
"I haven't watched much of the final three films..." Trust me, man - keep it that way. And for the love of all that is holy, NEVER UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE WATCH THE LAST JEDI.
@@captainfach They were both garbage. Last Jedi went off in a direction that completely split the fanbase, and then Rise Of Skywalker tried to 'fix' things and made them even worse. The Last Jedi was meant to be the middle part of a TRILOGY but Rian Johnson created something that felt more like his own stand alone sequel to The Force Awakens with no thought given to setting up things properly for the final movie. Although the fact that there was no plan put in place at all by Disney Lucasfilm for how the storyline should play put over the course of the three movies is the biggest issue.
@TromaDogg yeah that's definitely true, but at least Ryan tried to do something I like force awakens but it was way too safe, and then the rise of Skywalker was just pandering to the critics I'm trying to double back. The one thing I can say about the Last Jedi is it actually tried to do something different and at least halfway succeeded. The canto bite stuff was dumb, but there was a lot of good in there. Rise had a couple good ideas, but they were just ruined by JJ trying to make everybody happy by making nobody happy
There is another youtuber i follow that announced a partnership with Ubisoft right as SW Outlaws came out and that channel gave the game a 8/10 (still to this day the highest score i have personally seen). I called it out as BS at the time and i got laid into by the creator for it. To much of a coincidence TBH. To this day they still stand by that rating and claim to still play the game. out of the thousands of videos the channel has posted there are a total of 4 that have anything to do with SW outlaws. A preview video, a review video, and 2 playthrough/walk through videos. That's IT. Why? because nobody cares about the game and they were probably losing viewership.
Bro who cares about “the creator” lmfao. He “laid into you” lol like he’s your boss or has any position of authority. He turns on a camera and talks. He sounds like a sellout and you gave him that work. Maybe he needs to git gud and stop being a cuck
I'm playing it on Ubisoft+ (no chance I'll ever risk actually buying an Ubisoft game now-a-days) from time to time. It's not bad, but it's hard to play for very long because the frame rate is all over the place, the graphics go from low poly assets to finished, and back to low poly again over and over and over, the game constantly stutters like a strobe light, and there's bugs all over the place. Makes for a pretty brutal experience. If it actually ran right, I would have probably beaten it by now.
Yeah it's definitely not winning any awards, but I'm having loads of fun with it just being an immersive open World Star Wars game. But I will say I'm probably giving it a bigger pass than most people because I haven't played an Ubisoft game in quite a long time, and I've been wanting to drive a speeder across the Dune sea since I was like six so
AAAA Ehh? They could allow player testers outside their realm of Ubisoft influence to test the game. Disney with The Acolyte made me forget Star Wars. A new season of The Mandalorian with the original writers and original cast is the only thing that will save the Star Wars franchise.
Star Wars used to feel special, used to really feel like an event. But since the sequel trilogy, it's been one thing after the other. With very little bright spots in between.
Ubisoft should sue Disney for destroying the brand. If Disney made anything good in the last 3 years there would be tons of fans excited for a so-so Star Wars games. Also, there’s just too much to play.
It wasn’t about the character design. It was people pointing out the issue that it seemed to be yet another example of the creators involved were once again worried about identity rather than making a good game. It seems they were correct. To say people don’t like the character designs and that was the issue is not accurate.
We had 1133, we had a Boba Fett game, AND we had a Mando game just cancelled. It's almost like the gaming industry and those who make major decisions are REEEEEEETTTOOOOOODDDDDDDDIDDDDDD.
I feel like people dont understand how the words, attract, attractive and attraction are connected. You want to attract people to your games, then make your game attractive. Its pretty simple. If you are making a product what words do you want your product to be associated with: Attractive, intense, repulsive or mundane. Just like James Bond, the series wouldnt work if he just looked like an average joe. Or look at Sonic, if they released it with the original design, the movie would have flopped hard.
@@RhythmGrizz it was definitely weird looking, and is one of the many examples of people being bad at their job, which is probably worse than simple bad character design
The problem is not that Kay is ugly. The problem is the actress that played her is good looking. They could have used her actual face, but oooooh, no... She needs to be plain looking, lest the males get aroused. The game is enjoyable, particularly if you are a SW fan, but there aspects to the whole project that are also highly questionable.
@@sebastianriveros2975 Yeah, it's an overcorrection of the 2000s when they were super into posting hot chicks everywhere, when people were super into lesbians, and that was an overcorrection of the 80s, when there was still a conservative Christian influence, satanic panic and whatnot. That pendulum always be swinging
Thank you for pointing out those “positive reviews”. The bias was go obvious and I’m glad that people are not listening to them anymore. People are tired with the lies. I hope that companies realize that.
Ever since Disney bought out Lucasfilm Star wars has been going deeper and deeper into the toilet and we're seeing it real time. What a time to be alive
"Are you surprised that Star Wars Outlawz flopped?" No, no we are not. There was every indication based on multiple media sources showing the game before release for us to know it wasn't worth our time/money/energy.
Its actually decent... but, im actually playing days gone right now and the gameplay, stealth, shooting, story, graphics and bike driving is 100% better.
Absolutely!! Why didn’t they make a Han and Chewie adventure with the Millennium Falcon? They could have incorporated the back story from A New Hope, with both the Kessel run and dumping Jabba’s cargo.
I don’t really even think it’s Ubisoft’s fault lol Star Wars has been HEAVILY mismanaged. Had this game released back in 2015-2017, this game would’ve sold 8-10mil+ units. No one cares about Star Wars because of the bad amount of garbage coming out. No one liked Acolyte, BoB sucked, Kenobi was a dissapointment, Ahsoka was mediocre, and Mando fell off.
I liked Acolyte. Ok. Third episode was epic 💩 But towards the end it became really interesting. Having heretic force users start a cult is not really that far fetched at all. After all it was the jedi who were the a-holes in the show and gave a good reason for sith to exist. Jedi are guilty of the same thing as the sith. Too much power in the hands of the few. So. Yeah. They explored a taboo in the franchise and I was positively surprised. This coming from someone who pretty much dislikes everything after Return of the Jedi from the 80’s.
Everything has been female centered too. I'm not saying this is a bad thing in and of itself but when it's all female, and the shows haven't been that great, you start to notice a pattern. Then you see another female centered star wars product, in this case a game, and you can't blame the fans for thinking it's more of the mediocore same (and sounds like they were right in this case too).
I never pay full price for Ubisoft games, as a general rule. Here in Canada, new games cost $80-90 for the base game, so after taxes they're $100, especially on PS5. I always wait a couple months and get them after a few patches, and on heavy discount. I've also seen clips of the ridiculously bad enemy AI. Players hiding in a small patch of tall grass, shooting an enemy in the face right in front of their colleagues, and then the other AI pretty much step on Kay as they search for her, but don't seem to find her. Also 6:54 is a prime example of how bad it is.
Don't worry, the Black Friday special, which includes slave Leia bikini skin for Kay, and the DLC, Deathstick Dealer, will definitely pull this game out of the dumpster.
There are more smugglers in the world than just Han Solo my dude. And she's not supposed to be as good as Han Solo not even close. She's more of a street rat rookie type trying to make a name for herself. It doesn't even act like Han Solo at all
Yeah I've played the game too but thankfully got it as a gift from my siblings and definitely feel bad about them wasting their money. Even now the pop-ins frame drops and lagging are still there when I tried to see if I could bring myself to finish a mission in the game and couldn't bring myself to do so. Sad to see that the only good game I got recently from Ubisoft is Prince Of Persia:The Lost Crown. Sadly the Ubisoft gamers remember fondly from the 2000's is no more and all we have is.....this company. Hopefully some outside buyers purchase Ubisoft fire the upper staff and start over and hopefully we gamers see the Ubisoft we remember years ago make a come back.
The maps are so incredibly beautiful! It’s such a shame they can’t get characters and story’s right. Currently forcing myself to finish avatar. Stunning a map on ps5 is keeping me going
I played 60hrs. Loved it. The enemies are dumb at times but that’s the only issue I’ve found. Also I highly disagree with the all too popular phrase “bad writing”. Kay has an evolving relationship with with just about every character in the game. She goes from loner only looking for the big score, to her team being top priority and risking everything in the end to save a droid. It was awesome and heartfelt. It’s a shame we have these groups that seem to be programmed to be super harsh and hateful towards anything Star Wars and/or Ubisoft related with very few exceptions. I played and platinumed Wu Kong, Astro Bot, and Outlaws, and I can say that it’s rare to have one banger after another these days. I’m also willing to bet the people that jumped on the Wu Kong hype didn’t even finish the game or at least play all the side content. And the ones not giving this a chance most likely haven’t even tried it and or have also not done everything, which is sad because the side content for Outlaws is almost the best part. But hey, we live in a world where biased opinions, disregard for facts, and hate run unapologetically rampant and Fortnite and sports games are the most popular, so I don’t know what I expect. Society sucks.
I think the main character's story just seems uninteresting for a lot of people to put in 20 hours into. Had they just made it a story about Han Solo before the events of A New Hope, I think a lot more people would have been interested and forgiving of said bugs/glitches.
I hate that it’s just a bunch of executives that’s bringing all this bs to the gaming industry, wish we could go back to the said of good competition, like the ps4 days when we had good games coming out all the time, man it was a good time to be a gamer
i don't think its just outlaws not selling, recent reports in media say that in general these triple a big budget games are not selling, the only reason why they costs so much to make is the salaries they are paying the devs, i think devs in the industry will be getting pay cuts within coming years..
Rejoice my children, a exciting month has begun: After 2½ of Switch Pro rumors, followed by another 2½ years of Switch 2 rumors, the curtains will finally be pulled back and Nintendo will at long last show us their next-gen console.
I don’t know much about the game, but look at the way the character swings on a rope in the one clip shown in this video, followed by very clunky, unpolished, unappealing UI. This is meant to be a triple a game and the little things are very important.
I’m still playing it here and there but it’s difficult to love it. There’s so many quest breaking bugs, the protagonist isn’t interesting or relatable, several gameplay mechanics are just annoying or frustrating. There’s good things, the environments are beautiful, but it feels like a wasted opportunity to make it a proper RPG with character customisation and let *them* be the outlaw, not Kay Vess.
Star Wars has really become a shadow of what it once was. Since the late 90s Lucasfilm has struggled to connect with its fan base, and in some cases absolutely aggravated them. Yet they still try and tell everybody how magnificent it all is, and nothing is their fault, that it is the fans who are the problem. The thing they need to remember is it's the hardcore fans who keep the franchise alive, not the politically correct generation.
How come nobody talks about the fact that Ubisoft games go on massive discounts in a short period of time. There is so much to play out there and as much as I want to play Outlaws, I am willing to wait a month or 2 and get it heavily discounted.
This is the game that some gamers paid over +$100 for the super whatever edition for early access, just to be told to start all over because of a bug/patch 😅

They managed to take the star wars franchise and turn it into something that nobody was interested in. THAT takes talent.
Ubisoft needs to get comfortable with not being in business anymore.

Greedo female bounty hunter easily improves the character design then a humanoid Solo clone
All Nintendo first party games need to have VOICE ACTING. This isn’t the 90s, we don’t need to read the entire game nonstop.
Amazing how these AAA game companies cant implement a character creator, half the problems they create could be undone with giving players choice
like dragon age veilguard? I dont want that choice. Or choosing bodytype 1 or 2 in dragonquest?
It flopped because Disney destroyed the Star Wars franchise and shat all over its fans and hence we have abandoned it…

Whats crazy is the footage actually looks pretty cool. I would probably buy this on sale though.
$30 minimum
I’m honestly just sick of Star Wars. Disney has beaten that horse into a fine powder at this point.
Star Wars used to feel special, used to really feel like an event. But since the sequel trilogy, it's been one thing after the other. With very little bright spots in between.
She even wears the same outfit as Han Solo, but you’re not allowed to be a scoundrel in the game. Such a missed opportunity.
I halted my purchase due to the lack of "Top scar" customization...
This is why we do not need the KOTOR remake because of all of the BS that Star Wars Outlaws is dealing. Worried about how Indiana Jones is going to do
I just want a remaster of Prince of Persia The Warrior within one of the best games ever made music and gameplay wise
I remember a commenter saying how could Ubisoft screw up stealth on a videogame when they MADE ALL THE SPLINTER CELL GAMES!!!!
they fired all the men who wrote the code 🤷♀
My guess on that sentiment is that the devs that worked on those great games are no longer there and were replaced with cos playing devs
@@unknowngames9959 cosplaying devs i'm crying hahah
Ubisoft should sue Disney for destroying the brand. If Disney made anything good in the last 3 years there would be tons of fans excited for a so-so Star Wars games. Also, there’s just too much to play.
Hate the saying all you want people but it’s true Get Woke Go Broke.
It’s literally not. Change the protagonist to a straight white male and literally nothing about this game gets better.
God of War: Ragnarok and Spider-Man 2 went "woke." Care to explain?
It wasn’t about the character design. It was people pointing out the issue that it seemed to be yet another example of the creators involved were once again worried about identity rather than making a good game. It seems they were correct. To say people don’t like the character designs and that was the issue is not accurate.
We had 1133, we had a Boba Fett game, AND we had a Mando game just cancelled. It's almost like the gaming industry and those who make major decisions are REEEEEEETTTOOOOOODDDDDDDDIDDDDDD.
Btw anyone here getting the Patrick Star game on Friday?
I feel like people dont understand how the words, attract, attractive and attraction are connected. You want to attract people to your games, then make your game attractive. Its pretty simple.
If you are making a product what words do you want your product to be associated with:
Attractive, intense, repulsive or mundane.
Just like James Bond, the series wouldnt work if he just looked like an average joe. Or look at Sonic, if they released it with the original design, the movie would have flopped hard.
I don't think Kay was ugly, she is presentable, but what I did see were terrible facial animations
Which you could absolutely say looked ugly
@@RhythmGrizz it was definitely weird looking, and is one of the many examples of people being bad at their job, which is probably worse than simple bad character design
The problem is not that Kay is ugly. The problem is the actress that played her is good looking. They could have used her actual face, but oooooh, no... She needs to be plain looking, lest the males get aroused. The game is enjoyable, particularly if you are a SW fan, but there aspects to the whole project that are also highly questionable.
@@sebastianriveros2975 Yeah, it's an overcorrection of the 2000s when they were super into posting hot chicks everywhere, when people were super into lesbians, and that was an overcorrection of the 80s, when there was still a conservative Christian influence, satanic panic and whatnot. That pendulum always be swinging
Thank you for pointing out those
“positive reviews”.
The bias was go obvious and I’m glad that people are not listening to them anymore.
People are tired with the lies.
I hope that companies realize that.
Ever since Disney bought out Lucasfilm Star wars has been going deeper and deeper into the toilet and we're seeing it real time. What a time to be alive
The game was made by Ubisoft, it was bound to fail. I don’t know how they’re still in business tbh.
"Are you surprised that Star Wars Outlawz flopped?"
No, no we are not.
There was every indication based on multiple media sources showing the game before release for us to know it wasn't worth our time/money/energy.
Journos actually think that they can gaslight people into buying games like as if everyone who games was born after 2015.
Its actually decent... but, im actually playing days gone right now and the gameplay, stealth, shooting, story, graphics and bike driving is 100% better.
Paying off reviewers only works if consumers actually trust the reviewers.
When I play a Star Wars game I want to play as a Sith, Bobba Fett, or Luke Skywalker or Han Solo, so I did not buy it 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
Absolutely!! Why didn’t they make a Han and Chewie adventure with the Millennium Falcon? They could have incorporated the back story from A New Hope, with both the Kessel run and dumping Jabba’s cargo.
Don't you realize the Force is female. This is why we can't have nice things. 🤬
You didn’t play many Star Wars games then, did you?
No Man's Sky has given devs that "I Can Fix Him" mentality for any and all flops.
WHY???? CUZ STONE COLD SAYS SO!!!
I don’t really even think it’s Ubisoft’s fault lol
Star Wars has been HEAVILY mismanaged. Had this game released back in 2015-2017, this game would’ve sold 8-10mil+ units.
No one cares about Star Wars because of the bad amount of garbage coming out. No one liked Acolyte, BoB sucked, Kenobi was a dissapointment, Ahsoka was mediocre, and Mando fell off.
I liked Acolyte. Ok. Third episode was epic 💩 But towards the end it became really interesting. Having heretic force users start a cult is not really that far fetched at all. After all it was the jedi who were the a-holes in the show and gave a good reason for sith to exist. Jedi are guilty of the same thing as the sith. Too much power in the hands of the few. So. Yeah. They explored a taboo in the franchise and I was positively surprised. This coming from someone who pretty much dislikes everything after Return of the Jedi from the 80’s.
It is though, Ubisoft ran the open world slop formula into the ground
Everything has been female centered too. I'm not saying this is a bad thing in and of itself but when it's all female, and the shows haven't been that great, you start to notice a pattern. Then you see another female centered star wars product, in this case a game, and you can't blame the fans for thinking it's more of the mediocore same (and sounds like they were right in this case too).
The Jedi series was SO GOOD that people had high expectations for this one. It's a shame because it could have been so good too.
I never pay full price for Ubisoft games, as a general rule. Here in Canada, new games cost $80-90 for the base game, so after taxes they're $100, especially on PS5. I always wait a couple months and get them after a few patches, and on heavy discount.
I've also seen clips of the ridiculously bad enemy AI. Players hiding in a small patch of tall grass, shooting an enemy in the face right in front of their colleagues, and then the other AI pretty much step on Kay as they search for her, but don't seem to find her. Also 6:54 is a prime example of how bad it is.
Don't worry, the Black Friday special, which includes slave Leia bikini skin for Kay, and the DLC, Deathstick Dealer, will definitely pull this game out of the dumpster.
*insert everything is fine meme
Remember when Space Marine 2 sold 2 million units in like the first week.
You keep mentioning a crash, and none of this stuff is related to a crash.
No one wanted a female Han Solo rip off.
There are more smugglers in the world than just Han Solo my dude. And she's not supposed to be as good as Han Solo not even close. She's more of a street rat rookie type trying to make a name for herself. It doesn't even act like Han Solo at all
@@captainfach Hence Han Solo "rip-off".
Yeah I've played the game too but thankfully got it as a gift from my siblings and definitely feel bad about them wasting their money. Even now the pop-ins frame drops and lagging are still there when I tried to see if I could bring myself to finish a mission in the game and couldn't bring myself to do so. Sad to see that the only good game I got recently from Ubisoft is Prince Of Persia:The Lost Crown. Sadly the Ubisoft gamers remember fondly from the 2000's is no more and all we have is.....this company. Hopefully some outside buyers purchase Ubisoft fire the upper staff and start over and hopefully we gamers see the Ubisoft we remember years ago make a come back.
You’re riding the fence when you say you’re not taking the culture war aspect into account. It’s DEFINITELY a factor.
No, he just has a brain.
yup
How is it a factor are you saying that he should actually give people recognition for not liking the character because she's not a model?
Get outta your echo chamber for just one minute.
The maps are so incredibly beautiful! It’s such a shame they can’t get characters and story’s right. Currently forcing myself to finish avatar. Stunning a map on ps5 is keeping me going
I played 60hrs. Loved it. The enemies are dumb at times but that’s the only issue I’ve found. Also I highly disagree with the all too popular phrase “bad writing”. Kay has an evolving relationship with with just about every character in the game. She goes from loner only looking for the big score, to her team being top priority and risking everything in the end to save a droid. It was awesome and heartfelt. It’s a shame we have these groups that seem to be programmed to be super harsh and hateful towards anything Star Wars and/or Ubisoft related with very few exceptions. I played and platinumed Wu Kong, Astro Bot, and Outlaws, and I can say that it’s rare to have one banger after another these days. I’m also willing to bet the people that jumped on the Wu Kong hype didn’t even finish the game or at least play all the side content. And the ones not giving this a chance most likely haven’t even tried it and or have also not done everything, which is sad because the side content for Outlaws is almost the best part. But hey, we live in a world where biased opinions, disregard for facts, and hate run unapologetically rampant and Fortnite and sports games are the most popular, so I don’t know what I expect. Society sucks.
I think the main character's story just seems uninteresting for a lot of people to put in 20 hours into.
Had they just made it a story about Han Solo before the events of A New Hope, I think a lot more people would have been interested and forgiving of said bugs/glitches.
No one should be surprised here, this is just confirming the bad dream we thought this was gonna be
Ubisoft Needs to Revive The Watch Dogs Series
That Jason S convo was hilarious on the spawncast!
I hate that it’s just a bunch of executives that’s bringing all this bs to the gaming industry, wish we could go back to the said of good competition, like the ps4 days when we had good games coming out all the time, man it was a good time to be a gamer
All these gaming journalists MUST BE getting $$$ for their reviews from Ubisoft!!
We're not in a video game crisis....people are starting to get over the GARBAGE GAMES that are put out now that's all
We didnt abandon Star Wars, star wars abandoned us. Gen x
Episode 4/5/6 =Gen X
Episode 1/2/3=Millennials
Episode 7/8/9=Gen Z
If you had high expectations from the beginning… you weren’t paying to Ubisoft nor how the Star Wars franchise has been managed.
Year 2024 will be remembered as The Year of Flop Games. What a Flop Show!
Or the year one of the best games of all time was released pessimist😢
i don't think its just outlaws not selling, recent reports in media say that in general these triple a big budget games are not selling, the only reason why they costs so much to make is the salaries they are paying the devs, i think devs in the industry will be getting pay cuts within coming years..
Rejoice my children, a exciting month has begun: After 2½ of Switch Pro rumors, followed by another 2½ years of Switch 2 rumors, the curtains will finally be pulled back and Nintendo will at long last show us their next-gen console.
Didn't I see u on the other guy's channel?
How did you come to that conclusion?
The girl boss killed it
I don’t know much about the game, but look at the way the character swings on a rope in the one clip shown in this video, followed by very clunky, unpolished, unappealing UI. This is meant to be a triple a game and the little things are very important.
I’m still playing it here and there but it’s difficult to love it. There’s so many quest breaking bugs, the protagonist isn’t interesting or relatable, several gameplay mechanics are just annoying or frustrating. There’s good things, the environments are beautiful, but it feels like a wasted opportunity to make it a proper RPG with character customisation and let *them* be the outlaw, not Kay Vess.
You literally muffle someone’s voice when they are wearing a helmet by placing your hand over where their mouth would be.
Star Wars has really become a shadow of what it once was. Since the late 90s Lucasfilm has struggled to connect with its fan base, and in some cases absolutely aggravated them. Yet they still try and tell everybody how magnificent it all is, and nothing is their fault, that it is the fans who are the problem. The thing they need to remember is it's the hardcore fans who keep the franchise alive, not the politically correct generation.
How come nobody talks about the fact that Ubisoft games go on massive discounts in a short period of time. There is so much to play out there and as much as I want to play Outlaws, I am willing to wait a month or 2 and get it heavily discounted.
This is the game that some gamers paid over +$100 for the super whatever edition for early access, just to be told to start all over because of a bug/patch 😅
Just like disney people are legitimately getting paid millions to ruin star wars and other properties...is that a skill??😶😮💨
