Assassin's Creed III Video Overload

[Sep 24, 2012, 3:48 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

Computer and Video Games offers gameplay videos from what they call a "monster 3-hour playthrough" of Assassin's Creed III. Not to be out-excessed, IGN offers their own "ton" of videos from Ubisoft's stealth/assassination sequel. Reading our minds before our lips could even ask why, IGN explains: "at the end of the day we know you kind of just want to watch a bunch of footage and drool over it." The gang at VG247 apparently didn't get the memo, as their video clocks in at a modest nine-and-a-half minutes, though of course you always have the option to loop it and watch for three hours.

And I can't friggin stand people writing articles when it's clear they're new to the series. I think they should state that up front and don't make ANY comparisons to previous games. The guy actually stated that combat is simplied and compared it to Arkham games is if Arkham came out first or as if AssCreed is copying Arkham. It's ridiculous. I can't take take them seriously when they say things like "oh yay, we can do this now!" and my brain responds with "we could always do this" or "it was always like that".

"at the end of the day we know you kind of just want to watch a bunch of footage and drool over it." Unless it's some of the recent footage released of Borderlands 2 on Youtube by a certain gamimg site. It's actually more frustrating to watch people who play games particularly poorly. No sense of direction, no good at shooting... I get we can't all be super flawless gamers, but in the same way I don't publish videos of my fat arse doing strip teases, people shouldn't publish their crappy playing. That's also not to say that I don't like to see people stuff up from time to time in these videos - it's good to see consequences of the inevitable failures we'll all commit - but I'm not interested in seeing someone stumble back and forth with constant references to the map when the path is right in front of them, then have them cluelessly fumble through combat. How that makes for an interesting video for professionals to publish is beyond me.
