Ubisoft’s free version of COD. I tried it as a friend was raving about it, tbh it’s a fine game if somebody likes this style. The character’s from the Ubi universe are just a gimmick, most play the same
Apparently, it’s like Smash Bros in the Ubisoft universe, except it’s a first-person shooter.
So, you got different factions from Far Cry, Splinter Cell etc. with which you can play…
If nothing else, it is kind of fun that they’ve merged universes a bit.
In Watch Dogs Legion, DedSec is contacted by the Assassin Order who needs their help taking down Templars that are working with Albion - basically merging protagonists/villains of both series.
Ghost Recon has also previously guest starred Sam Fisher and operators from Siege.
It sounds a little novel if nothing else, I hope it picks up :-)
Man, all business/capitalism/personality-politics stuff aside, it must suck to be a developer, artist, writer, actor etc on something for years, pour your heart into it for a solid percentage chunk of your remaining lifespan on this Earth, and then have it fall flat.
Especially if it’s not so much the thing you made, but stuff outside of your control that’s holding it back. Lacklustre marketing for example - I hadn’t even heard of this.
Yeah, I had to figure out what it really is from Wikipedia and my two reactions were:
Ubisoft has a ‘universe’? Huh, I guess, they do have a few franchises there.
That actually sounds reasonably interesting. At least it’s not just yet another uninspired shooter.
And like, yeah, lacklustre marketing puts it quite well. I had heard of XDefiant before, but all I got from that was that it’s a shooter, which made me fall asleep immediately.
Had they sold it as “You ever wanted to pit the Splinter Cell guy against the Far Cry bandits?”, I would have at least remembered it.
But to be fair, a lot of games are currently coming out. It is difficult to be seen for pretty much all titles…
The fuck is XDefiant…

AC in narrative meeded closure in modern times, where I hoped AC 3 or 4 would be. Cool that happened.
When I was 15 that would have been the coolest shit!
Not to say it’s not still cool, my capacity for joy and wonder at the novelty of crossovers has just faded over time is all.
