Board 8 > Ubisoft Forward starting right now

(+) Yeah! (+)

Twitch.tv/Ubisoft

Time to see all the games that already leaked

---

Damn this new watch dogs is looking pretty political for a game that isn't about politics

---

I'm just here for Just Dance reveal / trailer

---

Not quite as bad as when the Sonic comics invoked and then they came for the _____ but almost

---

Boy I would love a good Lindon game but Watch Dogs Legion does not look like that. Cartoonish in the worst way.

---

I'm intrigued about the possibility of playing as literally anyone, but concerned about how that impacts the story. I'm worried that it'll be very generic without a main protagonist.

---

Im really curious if any of the people in this presentation are sex criminals / if they had to edit out sex criminals

How does that work plotwise? Are you brainwashing people, or are you just so persuasive that you can get literally anyone to drop everything and join your cause with a single text message?

Some of their research on vikings is a bit misleading lol.

Also Norway? Cmon, it was all named Denmark back then =c

---

we did some research on Vikings and it turns out they loved climbing huge towers and hiding in hay
---

Valhalla is a super misleading name for the game

---

This was tonally a very wierd time for a conference about these kinds of games. Like, marketing gotta market, but lumping it all up together like this...

---

I am bored

---

RIP Splinter Cell

---

Watch Dogs 2 was very good and this new one sounds interesting so I may be in for that day 1

and ill probably get Far Cry even though I got burnt out on 5 before the end

unless Assassins Creed ends up incredible somehow ill probably skip it. I like those games well enough but they just dont rank high enough for me to be worth the time.

I'm going to wait on Far Cry 6 to find out if the ending has you chained up to a bed by a greased-up cult leader. Also to make sure it doesn't play like 5.

I'm currently burned out on Assassin's Creed. I did Origins and Odyssey within the span of a few months, and I don't want any more right now. This is one where I'll wait until the gold edition is cheap, even though I won't touch the DLC.

Unity was the point where I got burnt out on AC, tried Syndicate not long after release and while it seemed good I just couldn't get into it due to how bad Unity had burned me.

Fastforward to the Valhalla reveal and I was back in. Just recently finished Syndicate and started Origins. Helps that it's been 4-5 years since I've played one of these and that Origins is very different from classic style AC.

---

All the games they showed looked good, which is why Im utterly disappointed by the entire show.

Four games? Really? That was your E3-equivalent presser? Oof

---

I think we're really seeing the effects of COVID on development studios now with how slim these presentations have been

---

I'm in on Far Cry because that's my guilty pleasure series and I don't care if its literally a reskinned version of the last game because I just want more of it.

I gave up on AC awhile ago and there's nothing that they can do to bring me back.

Watch Dogs is probably a sale game for me.

---

So I can stop checking the Uplay every few hours hoping that somehow Watch Dogs 2 will appear in my game list?
I registered to that thing and..nothing..more than 24 hours later

It was never so hard to redeem a free game holy shit. Better buy it and be done with it ffs

ah damn, why did you have to remind me?

i don't even want wd2, but now i'm disappointed that it hasn't shown up yet

Have you guys tried this yet? https://register.ubisoft.com/ubisoft-forward-reward/en-US

I did through here a couple days ago and got my game.

One of my close friends is working as a producer on Watch Dogs Legion and he's very excited about it. I'm not too interested in it, but I'll get it to support him.

Also, he told me Far Cry Blood Dragon is probably never going to happen again because the guy in charge of it left the company and it was such a distinct game for him that nobody else can likely do it justice. I only mention it because I remember someone here was a die hard fan of that game.

He also says that Beyond Good and Evil 2 is still going to be a while yet from release. Which for an announced game in 2017 that's freaking wild.

He also personally sent this Tweet to the narrative director in Far Cry 6, so it's likely to be changed: https://twitter.com/swelterspice/status/1282718386246557696

Seems like a case of "The theme is Vikings, what's a cool viking word we can use for the title?"

---

To be fair, once the Pieces of Eden get involved, it's not impossible that you might end up 'visiting' Valhalla. Bayek wound up in the Egyptian afterlife, after all, and it was never exactly explained what was really happening in those sequences.

You can visit Elysium in Odyssey, so yeah its likely
