‘Please don’t hit me’ worship doesn’t count :p There is no dignity in that.

Well… actually there is Stockholm syndrome. Didn’t think about that. I guess that clears up my confusion.

Any religion that has a concept of eternal punishment technically is a "please don't hit me" type of worship.

When I was a kid I loved my father; but when he was angry and towered over me, I felt fear.

I've never understood NOT fearing a Being of that power, simply out of respect for all that Power contains.

Which is a DIFFERENT kind of feeling than pants-shitting terror, or the constant throb of fear from a casual abuser.

The article was not talking about selling full ownership to Tencent, it was claiming that (as the largest single shareholder and second largest after the combined shares of the Guillemot family) Tencent is also open to being bought out.

The mere rumor of Ubisoft being pried out of the hands of the Guillemot family caused the shares to spike over 30% today. The idea of 6-10k Ubisoft employees being fired fills me with joy.
My wife does not game but puts up (and encourages - it's why she's a keeper) my gaming habit. She gives 2 shits about the whole thing but I told her about this yesterday.

Hon remember how much I used to look forward to a new Assassins Creed game

yeah

well they have released so much shit that they are looking for someone to buy them out.

good fuck 'em

This is pretty much saying the customer is wrong. Something that Ive learned a long fucking time ago, when I was a teen, is not how you run any business.

I guess I'm a non-decent person because I don't want to play a non-existent black samurai!

If they made the game about William Adams it would still be retarded because it was an honorific title. He wasn't actually a swordsman. But at least he was really a Samurai.

Director of Monetization throwing rocks from a big glass house. What'd he do after posting this garbage, find better ways to target kids with loot boxes in a mobile game they're playing on their parent's phone?

Even if he did exist it is very self-absorbed to make him the main character in a game that supposedly is about Japanese culture. Make him a side character and it could be cool. This reeks of DEI.

Easy Solution to that

Well, grats on getting a Japanese Assassin's Creed game finally, Japanese players. ...and by that I mean Ghost of Tsushima.

Yakuza Ishin is on gamepass too and seems way more lore fun than this dumpster fire. I just finished Gaiden Man Who Erased his name (really fun for anyone who has played all the previous yakuza games, also on gamepass) and will take a little break but not sure whether to play Ishin (on sale on PSN too right now) or Infinite Wealth next. IW is i've heard a 100+ hour game to 100%, not sure I got that in me this year

also Rise of Ronin came out this year and while nobody seems to ever talk about it I've heard its fun in its own way, albeit not as good as Ghost of Tsushima

sadly next year we get AC Wu Tang Shadows in Feb and Ghost of YoGirlBoss probably holiday 2025

In a recent video, Asmongold was going to test Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora to see if that bug about saves was a reality. He saw the "log into your Ubisoft account", uninstalled immediately and refunded.

All of Ubisoft games require you to log/link to their game account, I think.
