This
was a very pleasant surprise and, all around, one of the most welcome and
refreshing little experiences I’ve had in a game. I decided to pick this up for a friend, to
see whether or not the game was worth having.
What essentially started as playing guinea pig, quickly turned into a
very enjoyable journey that I’m glad I was talked into taking, as I probably
would not have taken it otherwise.
Ubisoft
hasn’t had the best rap as of late, with good reason. From the controversies surrounding Watch Dogs
with its exclusive limited editions and the issues with Assassin’s Creed:
Unity. Ubisoft have been proving
themselves to be up there with the likes of Gearbox when it comes to screwing
over consumers and releasing products that, in no way, reflect what they show
off during conventions. While their
controversies may not be as abhorrent as the Colonial Marines debacle, they’re
still quoting from the same book, so I wouldn’t say mildly less lies gives them
much of a pass.
