I've actually enjoyed the recent "Witcher 3" AC games and was hoping this would be kinda like that with a Star Wars skin, but the bigger emphasis on stealth makes it seem like it isn't. Good thing I have AC Shadows to look forward to!
I mean... all these glitches really seem tame compared to skyrim on launch. Talk about a dumpster fire but it's one of the best selling games of the century.
Skyrim is kinda shit too.

I’m not defending Ubisoft games, but I don’t get why people have such high expectations of them. I don’t recall the last Ubisoft game I played, but they seem like chill podcast games to me, I just turn my brain off and just take in the scenery.
I’d guarantee that everyone here’s favorite game of all time had bugs on launch. I say this with the understanding that there are games that launched with few to no bugs- many or even most of the AAA games we all know and love stated out with issues.
But don’t let this get in the way of a good old fashioned pitchfork parade. Keep on hating.
sooo, don't buy games at launch?
Also, plenty of AAA games never see their bugs get patched. I got stuck in a room in Dead Space for about 20 minutes trying to figure out the puzzle when it was just the boss that failed to load. This was a documented bug that was reported five years earlier.
Also, this isn't what a pitchfork parade looks like. It's not nearly that important.
I didn’t say that either. But games have bugs at launch. They get fixed. But judging a game on its day 1 is fucking stupid.
No, it's fair to judge a game when it becomes available for purchase.
K. Be mad then.
2008 called, it wants its retorts back
Not what being mad looks like. This is what MST3K popcorn throwing looks like.
There are plenty of indie games that do launch in stable, playable states. I recommend Hedon, Dusk, or HROT.
Indeed there are plenty of games with way more bugs than this one but bugs themselves are not the issue.
Skyrim had and still has many bugs but despite all that it's a good game.
This game will remain bad even if you'll fix all bugs.
No game was made to appeal to every player. I haven’t gotten it yet- so I’m reserving judgement.
Expecting a decent product for the price you paid == hating. What a 2024 moment.
That’s not at all what I said. And the fact that you need to create this straw man in order to have a response lends to the fact that you’re the type of person that will take a video on YouTube to be an example of what is happening to everyone that has played it.
Stay mad, bro.
