I like Skyrim (as well as older Elder Scrolls games) but I'm also basic enough to enjoy most Ubisoft open world games so my opinion should probably legit be discarded
Depends which, some Ubisoft open worlds were okay....
Yeah, don't get me wrong there are some open world games that even I don't consider worth playing but I enjoy vegging out and liberating portions of a map sometimes, what can I say
I totally feel that. Its such a soothing experience. Completely mind off - climb viewpoints, go to incons on map, grab collectibles - it's all i want sometimes.
Hell yeah
Not at all proud of my 70 hours in Far Cry 3, which I accrued resetting the map a couple times while playing the game mindlessly and listening to podcasts
I don't do that shit anymore though, feels bad.
I'm baffled that Assassins Creed 4: Black Flag was made, and Ubisoft didn't just pivot to make better and better pirate games. Or us all as a society generally.
Like I should be sailing my customized privateer interceptor around the Caribbean with my crew of lesbian love interests, while maxing out a pistols build that lets me shoot 6 times at the start of combat from 6 pistols hanging off my character.
Skull and Bones was meant to be that, but joke company lmao. I guess they worried it was too far out from core series appeal?
Also
There's still AssCreed Rogue, even if the cool piratey bits fell off
