Feels like a low energy announcement from Ubisoft, I figured they would make a bigger deal of it like EA did.
 

Guess who's back?
Back again.
Ubi's back.
Tell a friend.
Backstreet's back, alright!
Everybody, yeah.



Though I do hope they'll have Steam achievements.
Now the wait for Fenyx Rising begins.
 
Darktide is amazing, but the lack of mission variety really hurts it.
I know they didnt roll out all missions yet, but im already having fatigue from those in the game and i can't imagine the rest of the missions changing that for long.

The biggest negative difference to Vermintide is that the environments all look so similar to each other.
 
That Sweeney money must have finally stopped flowing for Ubi. Don't really see why else they waited so long to return.

All in all they probably lost out on hundreds of millions by doing this dumb shit. All to feed Sweeney's ego.

The idea of you making more money only if someone else makes less has always been stupid in this industry. Valve wasn't about to destroy their profits because you want free distribution.

Just put your games on every platform and let people decide where they want to buy it. That is how it should be with pc gaming going forward.

Ubisoft came back to Steam because they are in really bad position and they need any new source of revenue or good news. They released only 1 big multiplatform game in past 2 years (Far Cry 6) and they were releasing up to 5 big games per year until then. This year alone they released 0 big multiplatform games. Their biggest release was Mario+Rabbids Switch exclusive. They don't have AC Mirage or Avatar release date and so far their only known release is Skull & Bones that will probably bomb.

They can't ride their 10K employees company on MTX and DLCs alone.
 
Do we have predictions of when Tsushima is coming to PC?
From 2023 to unknown. I would expect it to be one of 2023's AAA releases from Sony but yeah, nobody knows for sure.

I'd say 2023 for sure. Old enough where the PlayStation fanboys won't get too butthurt, but new enough to still gain traction as a "new release" on Steam.

Price is also a factor. The hurt feelings of console warriors aside, SIE's modus appears to be to sell all their full price games on PC at 60$, which they can't do if they release too close to the PS5 version (as they would be charging PC gamers less money than PS5 buyers, for a technically superior product).
 
Bro!!!!!!!!!

Bruhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!



My dude!!!!!!!!!!

LG just unofficially announced the holy. Grail of video game monitors.



1440p 27 inch 240hz OLED!!!!!!!!!!!!

What sucks is that it's AMD premium And not Gsync ultimate. It is Gsync compatible though.


It will retail at $1k USD



I think I will buy it if Best Buy sells it since they have a 5 year warranty for burn in for OLEDs.


Crazy times.


Sadly I may end up missing out on Dolby ATMOS though.


There is a lot of stuff that Sony does that sadly feels outdated. I say this since my AV system is a Sony one and lacks HDMI 2.1 and stuff.
 
I wonder if the new Ubisoft games will come as well, day and date? Can understand giving up on breakpoint and even onboarding new Div 2 players. FC6?
 
I don’t expect my wish list to shrink in size much in this sale.

A combination of having too much to play and sale prices not being great will see to that.
 
Meh I doubt that I will spend that much money on sale, if any. I kinda just want Evil West but that is like 25$ range for me. Gotham Knights can be bought for like 25-30$ but I kinda still don't like how game performs on PC so I would wait a bit more. Then there are Stray/Kena that ibam waiting to get at least 50% off but I doubt that will happen during the sale.
 
I'll browse a bit, but I don't really plan on buying anything. Still too much stuff lying around.

Yeah pretty much garbage, Denuvo, etc for Steam Valhalla and there's the requiring ubisoft connect etc which is the same as all the other Assassins creed/ubisoft titles on steam but I think this is the first "new" title since they retired uPlay

Ubisoft Connect is just a rebranded uPlay they changed the name of the client and everything so they're not going to mention uplay at all anywhere
 
Sales were better before because it was in a bad state. Now that PC gaming is doing extremely well, pubs don't want to put their games on deep sales.

Basically suffering from success.
There are worse things in the world. When they stopped gamifying them, that's when I lost some interest in them.
That and indies still do deeper price cuts, it's the bigger pubs not playing ball.
